Space Shuttle Mission simulator?

Does anyone know this?

http://www.space-shuttle-mission.com/

Tell us all about it!

Note that the main manual (~100 pages) can be downloaded and checked for free from their download section.

P.S. The HD-video trailer they offer is a pain to download (slow, rapidshare), but it is worth it and highly recommended. it is 10 minutes in length and shows breathtaking stuff.

P.S.S. the low-res video can be found and youtube:



Needless to say the Hd version looks better, and bigger.

It's looking great
I know another space simulator called "orbiter" and it's freeware.

I downloaded a few months ago and was pretty cool for a freeware, but as I saw from the trailer you posted, I don't think that "orbiter" can match the "Space Shuttle Mission"

OH WOW, this has got me excited. Used to love the shuttle sim on the Amiga - played it to bits... WOOHOO!!!!

I hope they make it as real - and more so than the Amiga one

I lived by the impression that it already is released!?

I also want to draw attention to their review section. Press seems to have given the sim a very warm welcome.
