Р В РІР‚СњР В РІР‚С›bout the simulator Features Orbiter is a realistic physics simulator which allows users to explore the solar system in a number of spacecraft, both realistic, such as the Space Shuttle Atlantis and fictional, such as the 'Delta-Glider.' Schweiger has included fictional spacecraft to allow for easier flights for less experienced users. It has been used as a teaching aid in classrooms, Р В РІР‚СњР В РІР‚С›nd a community of add-on developers have created a multitude ofР В РІР‚СњР В РІР‚С›dd-ons to allow users to fly assorted real and fictional spacecraft andР В РІР‚СњР В РІР‚С›dd new planets or solar systems. Martin Schweiger, a senior research fellow in the computer science department at University College London, who felt that space flight simulators at the time were lacking in realistic physics-based flight models, and decided to write a simulator that made learning physics concepts enjoyable. The simulator was first released on 27 November 2000, with the most recent of several versions 100830 released on 30 August 2010. Any addon files will remain and should be deleted manually.Orbiter is a freeware space flight simulator program developed to simulate spaceflight using realistic Newtonian physics. Note that the Uninstaller only deletes the original Orbiter components.To remove the Orbiter installation, select 'Uninstall Orbiter 2010' from the 'Orbiter 2010' start menu, or use the 'Add or remove Windows programs' option in the Windows Control panel, and select 'Orbiter 2010' from the list of installed programs.
