this is a simulator that can produce what is called a backdraft

 

It is used to teach firefighters to recognize the signs of a backdraft. I.E. the smoke color and movement as it is ocuring.

Harrier Jump Jet flight simulator was on that day. I went and it was short, graphics old and bad and nothing really happened except that moving chair made me almost sick. Helsinki-Malmi Airport, Finland.

PLEASE, NO invitations or self promotions, THEY WILL BE DELETED. My photos are FREE to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks.

 

Both grandchildren got a chance to fly a simulator. Grandson landed it and did great, granddaughter crashed but have fun.

 

There was a monitor setup outside so it was possible to see how well they were doing flying the jet.

Formerly used at Johnson Space Center to train space shuttle astronauts, this full-scale shuttle orbiter cockpit simulator is now in the Lone Star Flight Museum at Ellington Field in Houston, Texas.

Questo "Cockpit Systems Simulator" è stato impiegato presso il Centro Addestramento Alitalia negli anni 1980-1997 per l'addestramento di piloti e tecnici di volo, per un totale di 32600 ore.

Oggi "riposa" nel Museo del Volo a Volandia, a fianco dell'aeroporto di Milano Malpensa.

Today it "rests" in the Museum of Flight at Volandia, next to the Milan Malpensa airport (Italy).

This circular enclosure, made to appear larger still by an array of mirrors at its end, is ESA’s Large Space Simulator. Some 15 m high and 10 m in diameter, it is cavernous enough to accommodate an upended double decker bus.

 

Europe’s largest vacuum chamber, it subjects entire satellites to space-like conditions ahead of launch. Lowered through a top hatch, satellites are placed on the motion system seen in the centre, which is able to simulate their movements in space.

 

Once the top and side hatches are sealed, high-performance pumps create a vacuum a billion times lower than standard sea level atmosphere, held for weeks at a time during test runs.

 

The mirror array seen in the image reflects simulated sunlight into the chamber, at the same time as the walls are pumped full of –190°C liquid nitrogen, together recreating the extreme thermal conditions prevailing in orbit.

 

Portuguese-born Edgar Martins collaborated closely with ESA to produce a comprehensive photographic survey of the Agency’s various facilities around the globe, together with those of its international partners.

 

The striking results were collected in a book and exhibition, The Rehearsal of Space and The Poetic Impossibility to Manage the Infinite.

 

Characteristically empty of people, Martins’ long-exposure photos – taken with analogue wide-film cameras – possess a stark, reverent style. They document the variety of specialised installations and equipment needed to prepare missions for space, or to recreate orbital conditions for testing down on Earth.

The European Space Agency’s mission to discover Earth-like exoplanets, Plato, is now sealed in the Large Space Simulator (LSS) chamber at ESA’s Test Centre for a series of vital tests under space‑like conditions.

 

Engineers placed Plato in the LSS on 18 February, and since the beginning of March the spacecraft has been experiencing the extreme temperatures and vacuum of space. This photo captures the satellite standing in the centre of the simulator, moments before the chamber was bolted closed.

 

The picture was taken from the top opening of the LSS and gives us a direct view of Plato’s 26 ultrasensitive cameras. These are the special eyes that the mission will use to monitor more than 150 000 bright stars at the same time, hunting for terrestrial planets orbiting Sun-like stars.

 

The mission is expected to be ready for launch by the end of the year. Liftoff on an Ariane 6 is planned by Arianespace for January 2027.

 

But before launching a spacecraft, it is crucial to operate it and check all its functionalities in a space-like environment. The LSS offers just that.

 

A cylindrical container standing 15 m high and 10 m wide, the LSS is Europe's largest cryovacuum chamber. Equipped with a high-performance pump, the enclosure achieves a pressure a billion times lower than the sea-level atmospheric pressure, while liquid nitrogen circulating around its casing reproduces the extreme low temperatures of space.

 

Exposed to a grid of powerful heating elements (so-called ‘calrods’) that simulate the heat of the Sun, the backside of the spacecraft – with solar panels and sunshield – reaches a toasty 160 °C. At the same time, thanks to the sunshield and excellent insulation, the cameras and the optical bench facing the dark, cold part of the chamber are kept very cool at around –80 °C, as if facing deep space.

Plato will reemerge from the space simulator at the end of March.

 

[Image description: Photo taken looking down into a black‑walled cylinder, at the bottom of which sits a large satellite with black panels and golden surfaces. On top of the spacecraft, we see the blue, shiny lenses of 26 large cameras. The cameras are mounted on a five‑stepped platform and arranged in four rows of six cameras, plus a top row with two cameras.]

This screenshot is a part of the tutorial. The machine--a Cessna 152--is "flying" somewhere over Arizona, I think.

 

I had been a Flight Simulator (FS) user since the early mid-Eighties. However, about 15 years ago, I stopped using FS. The latest version has reignited interest, particularly with high details, both in the aeroplane as well as the landscape and airports.
