New Price for realistic spacecraft simulation.
December 14, 2004. Brick, NJ - Pyramid Design has announce an across the board price reduction for its award-winning simulation product, A-OK! The Wings of Mercury.
A-OK! The Wings of Mercury is now priced at $29.95 (was $59.95) and $14.95 (was $29.95) for an upgrade from 2.x. A demo version, which can be upgraded to a full version right from the program, is available for download at the A-OK! WoM web site (www.pyramiddesign.us/aokwom). Educational institutions can get a site license for $199.95 (was $349.95).
Background
A-OK! The Wings of Mercury simulates America's first spacecraft, Project Mercury, and opens a new frontier in computer simulations. The operation of every gauge, light and switch in the spacecraft is simulated to a high degree of fidelity. So accurate are the spacecraft systems that users consult reproductions of the actual flight documentation used by the Mercury astronauts. The simulator can generate hundreds of failure scenarios that require split-second decisions to survive.
A-OK! The Wings of Mercury ships with A-OK! Mission Control Center, an application that simulates the consoles at Mercury mission control.
A-OK! The Wings of Mercury also ships with a suite of tools that allows users to edit the launch and landing areas, calculate retrofire and ground station contact times and other mission-critical tasks.
The demo version is restricted to sub-orbitial, non-networked simulations and does not allow the use of the A-OK! Tool Kit. In addition, to removing these restrictions, registered users will be entitled to free updates from version 3.0 to 3.9 and priority in bug reporting and follow-up.
