Aborts are off-nominal procedures, to be executed in case something goes wrong. More specifically, the Space Shuttle abort procedures are designed to be executed during powered flight, to allow a safe return to Earth in case something goes badly wrong during launch. Since the FG Space Shuttle fully supports multiple failure scenarios, there is also corresponding support to execute abort procedures, which are an interesting experience of the Shuttle flight dynamics in unusual situations. | Aborts are off-nominal procedures, to be executed in case something goes wrong.
