Educational Experience
This simulator uses real astronomical data and physics calculations to demonstrate the challenges of space travel. Distances and travel times are based on actual orbital mechanics and propulsion capabilities.
NewAstrophage Spin Drive from Project Hail Mary
Fly the Hail Mary! Powered by Astrophage — an alien micro-organism that converts mass directly into energy — the Spin Drive accelerates at a constant 1.5G. Flip and burn at the midpoint to decelerate for arrival. A living fuel source capable of interstellar travel.
