I have never been to space camp.
I know you americans do it but nothing exists here.
Is there any recordings of missions etc.
I'd be interested.
I guess that could be an idea for a sim.

Space camp was fun times... and the missions that take hours are the
best parts. I'll never forget the time I left a fuel valve open...
and me, the commander! I felt like an idiot. lol. Lucky I fixed it
before we began landing.

Hi Ron,
Why couldn't we do a Shuttle launch? I have a friend who went to Space
Camp one year and she ended up being Shuttle Commander. They even let
her try as Shuttle pilot in the simulator which was cool. I think with
the right accessibility aids flying a space shuttle is no different
than any other aircraft. You just have to make sure to get the angles
right when taking off and landing or you will turn into a fireball.
Anyway, I would love a space shuttle simulator. I've always wanted to
fly one of the shuttles and it shouldn't be that hard to create. Just
need to get the right kind of actors to do for the communications
between the flight crew and NASA. As well as the flight crew and the
International Space Station etc.
Cheers!
