These shots are from Orbiter http://www.medphys.ucl.ac.uk/~martins/orbit/orbit.html
...a FREE Spaceflight Simulator...tons of add-ons...realism out the wazoo :) Uses a Newtonian Universe (so lightspeed + 1 is possible) and covers the entire Solar System in growing detail.

Cheers,
Rolf

Station 5 from 2001, Mir space station circa 1997 and an old Soviet N-1 Moon rocket w/ Zond + Lander half-way to low Earth orbit. The N-1 never saw actual service, both working examples being destroyed in unmanned launch mishaps.
