SpaceX has released a Crew Dragon Simulator

A really good lesson in friction free motion. 'An object in motion stays in motion' until you counteract it somehow. I have played some very old computer games (not nearly as complex) that the object you were steering had no friction. Thus it was very easy to over correct and get out of control.
 
Epic fail. It seemed that everything was going well till I got close. Time to call it quits for a while.
Since this is 3D space, below is a helpful graphic from Wikipedia.
