Buran - a quick update

Added 2024-07-11 20:18:22 +0000 UTC

Hi everyone. I had hoped to release the Buran video today but unfortunately Artem has been unwell which has delayed some of the 3D visualisations. Of course, I've told him to take his time, so they'll be ready when they are ready. With any luck, we'll have the video finished and available here this weekend. Apologies for the delay.

I will be adding everyone's usernames to the end credits. If anyone wants a different name displayed, please either message me or comment here. If you have already specified your 'credits name' in the past - no need to message me again.

The good news is, I've made a start on the next video while I'm waiting so there will be slightly less of a wait for that one. And I will be posting 2 seperate 'bonus content' videos for Buran here on Patreon.

In the meantime, here is a scan of Buran's flight plan for it's first and final flight. Apparently a whole book of these watercolor diagrams were given to guests at Baikonur during the flight.
