Well it's a free download and is a good simulator to boot. It is however hard to master and requires study and practice, as well as an aptitude for the orbital physics involved. Really nothing like a flight sim at all out of the atmosphere and gives you a real appreciation for the difficulties to overcome. Pretty much throw out anything you've ever watched in the movies where they fly around like jets in the sky, or any X-wing/space game physics. Can't hurt to try it.

EDIT: the documentation is supurb (ahem, Ubi).
