Made a new Galileo probe model... for a new Galileo add-on.....

* Stardust-NExT * add-on by toutatis... a big changes in SSC-file... the model was a bit modernized... there is no clones of the spacecraft now...

I love all these updates !

Thank you very much Gironde... I appreciate it...

I have a question for guys who lives in the USA or Canada... What do you think about Canadian dollar.. just your opinions... Will it raise against US dollar after yesterday FED meeting or no? and if yes, as strong?

* Pioneer Venus Orbiter * add-on by toutatis... was made changes in the SSC-file... and small correction for model too... solar panels reflect the light better now... I also will revise OSIRIS-REx and Hayabusa-2 add-ons... some elements of the spacecrafts changes during mission, so need to change th...

Today in morning I combined the models of Mars Express, Beagle 2, and MARSIS Radar through SSC-file... Now you can observe Mars Express with these objects in the right time spans...
Just unzip the file below to Mars Expres folder... Works only with Mars Express add-on I made...

Add-on on the previous page ...

* Cassini-Huygens *... In this add-on, was used only two modernized models, the Cassini spacecraft and the Huygens probe... I combined them through a SSC-file... a smooth separation of the parts of the spacecraft was not made because of a "bad" data for Huygens by ESA...

* Mars Express *.......

.............

I just finished the Cassini model modernization....

New *Cassini-Huygens* add-on soon, where *Huygens* will leave *Cassini* very slowly...

inclination changes occur best at lower orbital velocities. Inclination changes at apoastron are much more fuel-efficient since the components of the velocity vector are smaller. Yes, Sirius_Alpha... that is right... I'm not sure I understand exactly what you mean. Are you saying that because the i...

Just found an errors in the files from HORIZONS system, when created a xyzv-trajectory for Mars Express spacecraft... that brings a visual defects in Celestia when we want observe trajectory... these errors I found in timespan between 08:00:00 and 09:00:00 December 30, 2003... but because it happene...

Cool...

Then no problem. Simply each developer has their own working methods.

for sure!

Well, I use Celestia Origin, but a folder "Spacecrafts" created by myself... as and SSC and XYZV-files for spacecrafts...

* Stardust-NExT *

Still hoping that the Stardust that used to be in Project Echoes could still be implemented... :pray: XYZV-Trajectory for Stardust I made in the last year ( in the moment of Planet and comets encounters used step 10 minutes to avoid errors to minimum )... was used 3 models ( with a closed capsule, ...

really good all these updates.

Thanks Gironde... To be continued!

Please guys... I need a technical documentation of Hipparcos spacecraft with scheme, if possible... and several a good pictures where I can see the spacecraft from all sides... Thanks in advance!

* Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) *... the full xyzv-trajectory by data from HORIZONS... Timeline... the model of LRO by BrianJ was a bit modernized, smoothed some elements...
