I've played Microsoft Space Simulator.. and while it was fun it just didn't have the replayability. Lack of add-on's was the main reason behind this. I'd sure like to blast off in a Saturn V rocket.. but that wasn't included. Does anyone know of maybe a realistic Apollo, or space shuttle simulator? Even something that a university made would be cool. I've looked all over for one, if anyone knows where I might be able to find such a program, please help.

Virgin Games' old "Shuttle" simulator was pretty good, though the grahics are very dated. It was _so_ realistic, you could have the programme spend 2-3 days tractoring the shuttle out to the launchpad! Among the extras are some SDI missions. Be advised that the box recommends a 12MHz or faster processor, and you need 640KB RAM. -- Mark P.

It's pretty old I know.. but it sounds promising =) Jaster Jast...@hotmail.com "I'm not one for fancy endings, so this will have to do."
