Ok, I read all comments, but I think this thread is not completely for CC...
If you read the starship website, you know my name, Henk.
I reply to give some more information on my project.
The Starship project started in 1982, AFAIRemember.
However, as a young boy, I went to the attick and play with some switches,
batteries and lamps after seeing an episode of "The Thunderbirds".
So, I wished I had more free time. I have many ideas to implement
but *lack* the time to do it.
Indeed, one of the ideas is mounting everything on a sort of X-Y table
so that it can shake a little. When you have no visual contact with
you surroundings, a little shake can fool you brain quite good.
I have mounted a bass loudspeaker to the rear of the car seat, the
"captain's chair", and feeding it sub-audible tones you feel vibration
as an add-on effect/experience.
I must admit that dreaming/thinking about it is fun. Realising some of
it in the end gives me a 'good' feeling, as does all comment on this
website. I enjoy reading other people's comment on my starship project.
It 'fuels' me to put effort in expanding the website and adding more
pictures to it. And of course expanding my starship!
With last Xmas I got a Nikon Coolpix 885, so expect additions to the
site the coming months. I will add a link to tell about new additions.
For more questions/remarks, don't hesitate to write to me.
That is henk.gooijen(a)12move.nl or gooi(a)oce.nl
Look for the book Star Ship Simulation by Roger
Garrett
That's what got me infected!

but now it would be nearly a cake walk.
I wouldn't agree on that. The longer you think about it,
and work out more detail (hardware, switches, meters, etc.)
the more elaborate/complex things become.
Live long and prosper,
- Henk.
