Star Date July 16, 2019 - Manned interplanetary travel is now a reality. In command of the interplanetary spacecraft Solar System Explorer, your task is to plan and execute missions to explore the planets of our Solar System.
Plot your course in the Navigation Room. Plan pioneering missions or recreate famous past voyages. Look up data relevant to your mission in the Library and the Museum and then head to the Bridge and prepare to leave Earth's orbit. When you reach your destination, choose your ship's orbit and then descend to the Probe Room to deploy a probe to discover more about the planet's atmosphere and landscape.
