Now I can put myself into a stable orbit

[Foofoo14]

yesterday was the first time i got the deltaglider into orbit, and today i got the shuttle into orbit.
That and i just passed the written test for driver's school.
17 in a few weeks then I'll have my permit.

Congrats!
Shuttle is fairly hard to get into orbit. Now that you can put it into orbit, you can put most anything into orbit around any planet

Congrats on the drivers permit too!

Great job!
Your next mission, should you choose to accept it, is to successfully de-orbit your craft.
Depending on the craft it can be quite a challange.
Good luck!

Congratulations! Where you able to place them in to orbit with fuel use, or unlimited fuel? If I remember corectly, the Shuttle can't reach orbit with unlimited fuel, so CONGRATULATIONS! :thumbup:

For me re-entry was a hundred fold harder than orbit. I suggest you practice with the delta glider, and with the XR-2 because it (XR-2) has heat and stress detection and voice indicators, so you can tell if you would have died in real life. And then the Shuttle.
