A Spacecraft simulator and adventure game
Command a spacecraft in real time, on a mission to collect resources and acquire abandoned space stations.
Set coordinates for distant locations millions of kilometers into space and travel in real time through an authentic 3 dimensional environment based on a true scale scenario.
A project involving the Cefra stations was terminated due to an economic crash throughout
the sector and has left several space stations abandoned. As a former employee at
the space mining corporation TRACE-LUCO, you were compensated for the loss of your
job, apartment and paycheck with a small spacecraft, the EA426 mining probe...
Space exploration: Perform long-range scans through space and use the onboard k-band communications
system to interact with space stations far away. Make strategic decisions to reach
desired destinations with enough fuel to retro burn, dock and refuel. Travel at
high-powered Ion-velocities up to 89 kilometers pr. second (320.000 km/h or 199.000
miles/h) on a mission to collect resources while searching for a new home among
the stars.

"The decision to board the abandoned depot was made after
several scanning attempts that yielded no useful result within 10 range points. Despite the hazardous atmosphere I had to board the station to transfer local positions data to the spacecraft..."

Search through the interior of abandoned space stations, outposts and wrecks for
resources left behind by former crew members. Use the collected resources to restore
one or more space stations, making them your new home in space...
Mining probes have become a versatile platform used by scientists and explorers to collect samples, to perform test experiments and investigate space phenomena.
Though mining probes are fully automated (and when operated manually this is often done by remote) they do have the capability to house crew members. This capability was enforced by international law, which states that spacecrafts over a certain mass must be able to act as escape pods and/or rescue vehicles.

"Communicating with space stations is necessary to obtain information, docking permissions
etc. and though radio waves travel at the speed of light (approx. 299792 kilometers
pr. second) long distance communication may take several minutes."


"The indicator panel above the position displays where telling me I was running
low on fuel. Scanning a 160.000 km radius, I had to find somewhere to refuel before
advancing further into the quadrant..."
