Getting Started with Space Exploration

Launching Your First Mission

Begin by constructing a ground observatory to scan the skies for celestial bodies and potential mining targets. Once you've identified a destination, build a modular rocket by assembling its components, then fuel and launch it into orbit.

Equip a modular space suit before venturing into dangerous atmospheres. After reaching orbit, you can construct orbital stations and use warp engines for interstellar travel. Use astrobody data processor blocks to analyze information collected during your missions.

On alien worlds, gather resources through asteroid and gas mining, or use terraforming tools to modify planetary atmospheres and biomes. Deploy modular satellites to automatically collect scientific data from orbiting planets. Each world offers unique environments—from volcanic plains to frozen crystal fields—with distinct resources and challenges.
