About this game
Published immediately after Neil Armstrong's moon landing, this game challenges players to understand the physics of orbital movement as they reach beyond the moon to the planets. It also introduces limited fuel, which is used to modify the die rolls in order reach a planet.
Mechanism
Roll and Move
Rules
Players first launch a satellite and then a capsule. After the two rendezvous to make a spaceship, they head for the moon and then on to each other planet in the solar system. The plastic moon piece orbits the earth, moving each turn. The planets are fixed but orbit the earth rather than the sun. Each planetary trip starts from the moon and must reach the right orbit and planet location by exact count. Limited fuel can modify rolls. First to do the tour and return wins.
