Reentry – An Orbital Simulator
Maybe not surprising at all. The author open-sourced Orbiter in 2021 [1]. It's MIT [2], so anyone can pick up from where he left off and create a commercial version:
[1] https://www.orbiter-forum.com/threads/orbiter-is-now-open-so...
[2] https://github.com/orbitersim/orbiter/blob/main/LICENSE
- Would anyone like to build an Open Source KSP-like thing?

Open-source wind or solar power simulation
Also if you want to work on wind based simulation maybe this project might interest you https://github.com/orbitersim/orbiter The flight dynamic model is not super accurate and the author is not using the off the shelf library like jsbsim so a lot of improvements are possible.

Think you guys might appreciate this :)
Still the same, but now it's gone open source, hoping for a quicker development by the community now :)

PSA: Orbiter vs "OpenOrbiter"
"OpenOrbiter" is a misnomer, because Orbiter is already open and under MIT. I want everyone to know and understand that the real Orbiter repo, with commits being directly made by the good doctor is this one: https://github.com/orbitersim/orbiter

Games I can contribute too.
If you like space there is vega strike , pioneer and orbiter.
- Is there an explanation of the Orbiter codebase, like what part is the "main" where it all starts kind of thing?
- Orbiter launcher seems to have low text quality?
-
James Webb Space Telescope successfully deploys antenna
As a sidenote, it looks like the author released orbiter on GitHub: https://github.com/orbitersim/orbiter

Vega Strike
They’ve got it compiling on MacOS in the past few days. The link also mentions that it’s now compiling on Windows too. It references 0.9.0, but maybe pre-compiled binaries will appear for 0.8.0.
