Title: Newbie - Just completed First Mission STS-1; working on STS-8

 ;D

Okay, when I was in 3rd grade in '86 I was in the Young Astronauts program.  It was pretty cool.  Now as a grown-up this space shuttle sim is like my 3rd grade kid's dream come true! LOL

Totally awesome.  Took me a while to figure out how to de-orbit properly and land, but I got it.  Now I'm on Medium Difficulty with the next mission.

Anybody know how to grab screen shots in the game?

Would love to eventually see a fully functional Virtual Cockpit.  This game totally rocks until then. :)  Thanks for the 'blast'!  Ha ha ha!

1. Welcome to Space Camp 2009! :)
2. Use Shift+PrtSc then Paste in your fav paint program, edit/correct/resize etc. and save.
3. Virtual Cockpit is in our R&D plans :)

Have a blast!

Don't worry I have been here for a while and know at one point it will come but what does R&D mean?

Congrats, monkeywho!  You'll love the rest of the missions!

Spaceboy, R&D is Research and Development.
