You may think you would like to travel in space, but do you have the necessary skill to make a useful crew member?
The Starship Discovery is set for a three year voyage to Saturn and has a requirement for astronauts to pilot its EVA-Pods. These pods will undertake the repair work on the outside of Discovery during its space flight. This simulator tests your ability to pilot a pod and you are required to progress through eight levels of difficulty before being passed fit.
Complete manoeuvrability can be achieved from the Pod's engines with speed control available up to nine thrust levels. And you are able to navigate your craft to docking with the help of full instrumentation control of a "head up display" which gives a window view of graphical information pertaining to your current flight situation.
See how fact you can pass from cadet to commander and make the journey many can only dream about.
8 levels, 8 differing start points and solutions. Instrumentation or Graphic control displays.
