Finally finished my flight to the moon, simulating Apollo 11. Here are some screenshots I took. I lost the ones I took in Earth orbit and launch, excuse that.
Re-entry and landing was at night, so the pics are a bit dark. Sorry. The hardest part of the entire flight was re-docking the Lunar Module with the Command and Service Modules, as they needed to be in the same orbit, at the same velocity, and pointed towards each other. I flew a manual re-entry, which was also difficult.
Software used:
* Orbiter 2010 P1
