The NASSP Enhancement Pack is optional, but if you want to have the lunar landing site meshes for example you have to use it. Make sure that you run the mission specific .bat file before you launch a scenario if you're using NEP. The scenarios included in the NEP, which are in the "Scenarios\Apollo Lunar Landings" directory after the installation, are unfortunately mostly broken. But the NEP landing sites and vessels are also used by the standard NASSP scenarios in the "Scenarios\Project Apollo - NASSP" directory.

	If you have problems downloading huge files, the Project Apollo 6.4.0 file comes in 2 versions: A standard zip-archive of about 40MB and a new 7z-archive of about 25MB.

	Almost every article of this side covers the upcoming Project Apollo 7.0 version, but the latest stable version is still '''Project Apollo - NASSP 6.4.3'''. With this version you can do complete moon landing missions and much more, but the spacecraft behave rather like Orbiter vessels than the real spacecraft and without the simulation of spacecraft systems or the Virtual AGC. There are already realistic panels, but only very few switches are working ~~actually~~. The installation and the most frequently asked questions about Project Apollo - NASSP 6.4.3 are covered here.
