Default simulators

can u list some good space "simulator" for PC ...No arcade
and some space shuttle simulator
thank you.



I haven't tried it yet, but there is a program called X-plane that
allows you to fly the shuttle. There is an article about it in Popular
Science this month. This simulator attempts to calculate aerodynamic
forces in real time and you can enter your own designs. The amazing
thing is one guy in South Carolina wrote the whole program.

Check it out at www.x-plane.com and www.x-plane.org

Anyone have experience with this program? Any good?
