File Description:First Assignment with Virtual Air Pacific. This mission takes you on a short flight from Skagit Regional (KBVS) to Orcas Island (KORS) in the Carenado Cessna 185. Be sure to read the mission brief before you fly. This mission uses ORBX PNW scenery with default ORBX airfields. Created with Flight 1's Instant Mission Maker.
The Mars Helicopter, Ingenuity, is a technology demonstration to test powered, controlled flight on another world for the first time. It hitched a ride to Mars on the Perseverance rover. Once the rover reached a suitable "airfield" location, it released Ingenuity to the surface so it could perform a series of test flights over a 30-Martian-day experimental window. The helicopter completed its technology demonstration after three successful flights. For the first flight on April 19, 2021, Ingenuity took off, climbed to about 10 feet (3 meters) above the ground, hovered in the air briefly, completed a turn, and then landed. It was a major milestone: the very first powered, controlled flight in the extremely thin atmosphere of Mars, and, in fact, the first such flight in any world beyond Earth. After that, the helicopter successfully performed additional experimental flights of incrementally farther distance and greater altitude. With its tech demo complete, Ingenuity transitions to a new operations demonstration phase to explore how future rovers and aerial explorers can work together.

Called Crew-1, the mission carries Mike Hopkins, Victor Glover, and Shannon Walker of NASA, as well as Soichi Noguchi of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, inside a Crew Dragon spaceship. The tight-knit group hopes to stay at the space station for six months. If the crew members succeed, their mission will break the US record for the longest human spaceflight.
Mission makers may wish to experiment by synchronizing different modules to each other, or using standalone ALiVE modules as a backdrop for dynamic missions and campaigns, enhancing scenarios created with traditional editing techniques. ALiVE can significantly reduce the effort required to make a complex mission by adding ambience, support and persistence at the drop of a module.
The guys that spent 2 years developing the Multi-Session Operations persistent mission framework teamed up with other Arma community veterans to bring a new brand of addon to Arma 3. We have currently serving and ex-forces guys as well as long serving Arma modders and clan members. The addon is aimed squarely at the COOP community that want full map, realistic company level operations.
We are working on a limiter to the profile system, where the mission maker can set a hard top limit on the amount of 'active' profiles that can be in play at any one time. This will of course require testing on your hardware, and configured for the types of ops you are looking to support. I think it will be a reasonable compromise, as we all know Arma can only run X number of AI for any given system with Y number of players.
Our team brings together the expertise, technology, and processes needed to provide full-spectrum engineering support, high-tech payload integration and testing, real-time data services, and complex flight operations.
Dynetics provides technical support for Air Worthiness Releases (AWR), and has helped our successfully apply for numerous AWRs / safety releases for manned and unmanned aircraft. Dynetics' test engineers also plan and lead larger-scale flight test events, even when flight operations are performed by third parties. This enables Dynetics to deliver highly complex flight support through a mix of in-house expertise and thoughtful contracting with trusted partners.
Platform Aerospace is the industry leader in rapid aircraft modification through our world-class engineering, design, analysis and fabrication teams. We take your project from the laboratory to fully functional in the aircraft, in aggressively quick turnarounds. We are dedicated to excellence and our clients mission success while dramatically reducing risk through our 23 years of experience and training.
The DART mission is developed and led for NASA by the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory. NASA's Planetary Defense Coordination Office is the lead for planetary defense activities and is sponsoring the DART mission. Current U.S. partner institutions on DART include NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, NASA Johnson Space Center, NASA Langley Research Center, NASA Glenn Research Center, NASA Marshall Space Flight Center, NASA Kennedy Space Center, NASA's Launch Services Program, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, SpaceX, Aerojet Rocketdyne, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Auburn University, Carnegie Science Las Campanas Observatory, University of Colorado, Las Cumbres Observatory, Lowell Observatory, University of Maryland, New Mexico Tech with Magdalena Ridge Observatory, Northern Arizona University, Planetary Science Institute, and the U.S. Naval Academy. The DART Investigation Team also includes members from institutions across the country and around the world, and a full list is available at the Team Page.
The two missions, DART and Hera, are being designed and operated independently, but their combination will boost the overall knowledge return to a significant degree. NASA's DART mission is fully committed to international cooperation, and ESA's Hera team members are welcomed as full members of the DART team, to contribute to DART's planetary defense investigations and to fully inform Hera's mission.
SpaceX is a private spaceflight company that sends satellites and people to space, including NASA crews to the International Space Station (ISS). Founder Elon Musk is also creating and testing a Starship system for lunar landings and, he hopes, future crewed Mars missions.
The company experienced a steep learning curve on the road to orbit. It took four tries to get Falcon 1 flying successfully, with previous attempts derailed by problems such as fuel leaks and a rocket-stage collision. But eventually, Falcon 1 made two successful flights: on Sept. 28, 2008, and July 14, 2009. The 2009 launch also placed the Malaysian RazakSat satellite into orbit.
SpaceX fulfilled the first of its regular commercial flights to the space station in October 2012. That flight achieved most of its objectives, but it experienced a partial rocket failure during launch. The failure ended up stranding a satellite, Orbcomm-OG2, in an abnormally low orbit, which led to the mission's failure.
That said, the first version of the Dragon spacecraft ran 20 flights to the space station through 2020, with all but one of them (CRS-7, in June 2015) arriving successfully. CRS-7 was lost due to a rocket anomaly and SpaceX made redesigns before the next, successful launch on April 8, 2016, which brought the inflatable Bigelow Expandable Activity Module (BEAM) to space.
The company also used a pressure vessel qualification module and an environmental control and life support system module to test out key systems ahead of spaceflight. The first Crew Dragon to fly into space completed Crew Demo-1, which flew to the ISS on an uncrewed test on March 2, 2019, and splashed down successfully after eight days in space. That flown Crew Dragon spacecraft was unexpectedly destroyed after the flight during a separate set of tests to evaluate the abort system.
