With great enthusiasm of a few cosmonauts we have now a totally working [[Space Shuttle]] in the line. Comprising 3 Main engines, 2 booster engines, 5 orbit control engines, 2 orbit manouver engines, smoke, sound, animations - all in MP-modus, and ready for you to start up in the orbit! A detailed help lets you go up and try to hold a stable orbit in 150000 to 350000 ft, up to mach 30 and soon on the way to the moon :)
