What it is about
Mission objectives: Discover and explore new star systems. Collect interesting samples and artifacts from distant worlds. Befriend creatures from diverse societies. Engineer your spacecraft into the ultimate interplanetary vehicle. Build a museum that draws visitors from across the galaxy. Master the art and science of journeying between the stars. Based loosely on real astrobiology concepts, this solo RPG sends you and your copilot on an adventure through the stars, discovering new planets and the otherworldly creatures that inhabit them. The game provides tables for building star systems, planets, and the life forms on them, as well as for using and maintaining your spacecraft. A basic oracle provided for all other exploration and alien interactions. With the infinite possibilities of the universe, if you can imagine it, it is out there. All you need is a notebook to draw your map of the stars as you discover them and to record your thoughts and activities as you travel through deep space.
