The simulation is centered on a typical Space Shuttle mission to service a space station. Mission phases include Earth Lift-Off, Orbital Rendezvous, Approach and Alignment and Docking. [2] It was released for the Apple II in 1982, [2] receiving positive feedback from reviewers. [3]
Shuttle Mission Simulator (SMS) was an umbrella term for three separate simulators for training Space Shuttle crews at the Johnson Space Center (JSC). The simulators were the MBS ( Motion Base Simulator ), the FBS ( Fixed Base Simulator ), and the GNS (an acronym for its original name, Guidance and Navigation Simulator [ 1 ] ).
Google Earth is a web and computer program that renders a 3D representation of Earth based primarily on satellite imagery.The program maps the Earth by superimposing satellite images, aerial photography, and GIS data onto a 3D globe, allowing users to see cities and landscapes from various angles.
The main purpose of Space Shuttle Mission 2007 is to allow the gamer to experience real historical NASA Space Shuttle missions from liftoff (T-00:01:50:00) to landing. Initially, Space Shuttle Mission 2007 was released with a set of 11 missions but as time passed, the development team has been releasing new missions as free add-ons.

Space flight occurs beyond the Earth's atmosphere, and space flight simulators feature the ability to roll, pitch, and yaw. Space flight simulators use flight dynamics in a free environment; this free environment lets the spacecraft move within the three-dimensional coordinate system or the x, y, and z (applicate) axis.
Early attempts at 3D space simulation date back as far as 1974's Spasim, an online multi-player space simulator in which players attempt to destroy each other's ships. The earliest known space trader dates to 1974's Star Trader , a game where the entire interface was text-only and included a star map with multiple ports buying and selling 6 ...
Space Shuttle Atlantis The Orbiter version of the Space Shuttle Atlantis, a retired Space Shuttle orbiter formerly operated by NASA, and the only player-controllable spacecraft based on a real world design that is included with the basic installation of Orbiter. Space Station Mir Orbiter's model of the historic Russian space station. Unlike its ...
