I plan on borrowing a decent number of his ideas for my mod, at least the early sections of it. Though I think he has problems in some sections

eg detection. I want to see the math that proves you can see the space shuttle from Jupiter, because I've seen visual light photos from that range and the entire EARTH is a itty-bitty dot.

Well he does have a disclaimer that he isnt a rocket scientist, and that some of the info may be incorrect. Im sure with the links section near the end, and the WWW, you can research something better...

I'm just amazed with the amount of formulas and such, its like trying to mod SEV.

If we can see other galaxies with hubble, the space shuttle from jupiter is probably easy.
