Spacecrafts and spaceports are all based on your designs. As you research new technologies, you will have to design spacecraft capable of carrying out each mission.

Spaceports act as modules for fuel, research, tourists, and more. Each one has its own unique purpose based on the modules you put together.
This game simulates realistic orbital mechanics requiring players to plan around the orbit of interstellar bodies. Although you do not have to figure out the gritty details, you will need to understand the impact of each action and the time it takes to complete each task/
