Description

Low Earth Orbit (LEO) is the most crowed area of space. 1000s of spacecraft pass overhead and orbit slots are hotly contested. Take control of your LEO spacecraft, manage its resources to deliver the maximum data back to the ground.

In LEO (400-800km) players take control of a spacecraft in Low Earth Orbit. Each turn they move their spacecraft to the next orbit card and resolve the events on that card (discharge battery, damage memory, use thrusters to maintain orbit, place new orbit card).

• Adjust orbit (either moving up to a higher orbit, or down to a lower orbit),
• Recharge battery,
• Activate instruments (storing science or image data in their memory area)
• Downlink data (remove science & image data from the memory area and score points on the science and image track)

As the game progresses players will be eliminated as they run out of fuel and can no longer maintain their orbit.
Once all players have been eliminated, the player with highest, lowest scoring track is the winner.
