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.
Kerbal Space Program [22] can be considered a space simulator, even though it portrays an imaginary universe with tweaked physics, masses and distances to enhance gameplay. Nevertheless, the physics and rocket design principles are much more realistic than in the space combat or trading subgenres.
The Space Shuttle flight software that monitors and controls the Canadarm was developed in Houston, Texas, by the Federal Systems Division of IBM. Rockwell International's Space Transportation Systems Division designed, developed, tested, and built the systems used to attach the Canadarm to the payload bay of the orbiter.

Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) is the first of Launch Complex 39's three launch pads, located at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Merritt Island, Florida.The pad, along with Launch Complex 39B, was first constructed in the 1960s to accommodate the Saturn V launch vehicle, and has been used to support NASA crewed space flight missions, including the historic Apollo 11 moon landing and the Space Shuttle.
Reusable, modular 1969 NASA vision Space Tug (canceled) The Jupiter bound Galileo spacecraft and its attached Inertial Upper Stage (IUS) being deployed after being launched by the Space Shuttle Atlantis on the STS-34 mission. The IUS was an optional payload for missions where the Space Shuttle was used to take a payload beyond Low Earth Orbit.
Additionally, a small amount of time is also dedicated to other aspects of the Space Shuttle program, including: Other crew that work on the Shuttle; The work of inspecting and replacing the Shuttle's heat tiles; Training the astronauts must complete to prepare for missions; What the astronauts eat on spaceflights;
