Overview
An OXP which allows the Commander to land on planets and moons (but not gas giants or suns, even at night), and to trade there.
To achieve this, once your ship is suitably equipped just fly toward the body, although take care not to go too fast or else you risk burning up in the atmosphere of planets, and don't try and land on the actual surface before you've got landing permission from planetary control (usually just before you would actually land)!
To land, your ship needs to be firstly equipped with heat shields and docking computers. Then at all reputable (and a few not so reputable) tech 9+ systems you can purchase planetary landing capabilities. These consist of some tweaks to your ship, plus all of the relevant permits, permissions and registrations with authorities to allow landing.
Once your ship is suitably equipped, landing is done by flying down towards the planet. Your systems will automatically make all the necessary requests, and once permission is granted then just land on the planet surface. You should be greeted by a nice view of flying in over the planetary terrain.
Planetary take-off is via a launch booster, with control being returned to the Commander once orbital insertion is achieved.

This OXP requires at least version 1.77 of Oolite.
To purchase the equipment, you also need to be equipped with Docking Computers and Heat Shield.
