The '''Planetary Approach Suite''' is a module that allows you to both enter [[Orbital Cruise|orbital cruise]] and land on planets. It is supplied as default equipment with every ship, but can be sold and repurchased. It fits in the Planetary Approach Suite module slot. Currently, there is only one type of planetary approach suite available, an I rated class 1 module. Whether there will be more available in the future remains to be seen.

The '''Planetary Approach Suite''' is a specialised module that complements [[Thrusters]] and allows a [[Ships|ship]] to enter [[Orbital Cruise]] and [[Planetary Landings|land]] on the surface of [[Terrestrial Planet|terrestrial bodies]] without atmospheres. It is preinstalled in a reserved Optional Internal compartment, and consumes no power or fuel. It is the predecessor of the [[Advanced Planetary Approach Suite]].


== Usage ==
== Usage ==
To use this module, all the pilot has to do is have it fitted to the ship and fly towards a planetary body and enter the orbital cruise region around the body.
The functions of the Planetary Approach Suite are fully automatic. All that a pilot must do in order to use it is to ensure it is installed on their ship. Upon approaching a planetary body and entering [[Orbital Cruise]], the Planetary Approach Suite will activate additional [[HUD]] elements to help orient the pilot. If the pilot attempts to [[Planetary Landings|land]] on a suitable body, the module also activates and maintains [[Glide]] mode once the ship descends to an altitude of 25 kilometers.

== Notes ==
*The Planetary Approach Suite is equipped by default on all ships that the player purchases while ''[[Elite Dangerous: Horizons]]'' is installed. If the player acquired any ships before installing ''Horizons'', the module must be manually purchased and equipped on those ships. Horizons merged with the [[Elite Dangerous|base game]] on 27 Oct 2020. Since then all ships are pre-equipped with the PAS.
