Thanks to All! Script and Manual Completed!
Posted: 17.04.2006, 00:37
Everyone,
I have completed my script (84K) and 13 page manual and I'm in the process of uploading it. This has been a daunting task that I had to achieve in a very small time window. It would not have been possible except for the kind and tolerant assistance by the members of this forum. I want to think you all and wish you a happy Easter!

P.S.
There's a book about me available on Amazon.com by Joel Achenbach of the Washington Post if you're interested. It's called "Captured by Aliens: the Searth for Truth and life in a Very Large Universe" about me and my big NASA project to develop the means to get to the nearby stars.
P.P.S
In the aforementioned manual, I make a suggestion to the people that make add-ons for Celestia. One of the things that "Celestia Explorer" implements is the concept of a dockable object. For example it is possible to dock and undock to one of ISS's docking ports using this script. I was wondering what the forum thought of this idea? It would mean that anyone who wanted their add-on to be dockable, like a space station or a spacecraft, would (somehow) register their add-on as a dockable and supply long, lat, radius coordinates of their docking port. They could also supply a message that would be displayed when docked and or when undocked. Just a thought ....
