  • can you dock with another delta glider

  • @Astronautical123 If you can meet them up in orbit, you sure can!

  • Great tutorials, thanks. When using the map (and indeed watching it on NASA TV) the 'path' of the orbit is curved, i was wondering if that's how it physically is, and if so why? Or is it just the only way to represent a straight orbit on a deformed map of the sphere of the Earth? Thanks!

  • @SepradistPhantom Your hypothesis is exactly correct! Because a straight line on the Earth goes through the equator, unless the Orbit is inclined at 0 degrees, there will be a curve. And the flat map aspect also contorts the line. But your orbit is most certainly straight :) Just hard to display on a map

  • vor stands for very high frequency omnidirectional range.

  • @RealeAntiHater Then they should've called it vhfor ;)
