Ever heard about this? This is a real simulator. No Star Wars style flying-a-fighterplane-in-space action. I-War2 is like some arcade space-shooting compared to Orbiter[:0] I think that they use similar stuff in NASA. Best of all, it´s free! (Nothing weird in it, 95% of people don´t want that level of realism so selling this stuff would be impossible)
You can get it here:

I wonder if we can make I-War2 as realistic as Orbiter, scrap flight assistan, make sightseeing the planets and docking real pain-in-the-@$$ etc.

Never-EVER forget your real life, though.
