I just downloaded SpaceFlight from the net, and was immediately 
impressed with the graphics and apparent semi-real time perspective as 
your speed increased.  However, the documentation left me at a loss on 
how to interpret the two "numbers" presented in the center of the 
control panel, the number which appeared next to a star as you approach 
it, or the undefined control which seems to Quit the application.

I really liked the effect, but quickly grew tired of just flying around, 
bumping up to a star, and finding nothing interesting to do once I got 
there.  I think that there is some significant potential to this well 
done work, but if it's going to be anything more than a VERY impressive 
demonstration, it needs some carefully thought out "plot."


However, NICE WORK!
