Rendezvous With Comet Halley: It is the year 2061. The space craft is moving towards Halley's Comet which last passed through our solar system in 1986 and will not return for another 76 years. The crew has two hours to rendezvous with the comet and launch a scientific probe towards the comet in order to gain scientific information about the comet.
Return To The Moon: In this mission, our crew strives to achieve the first lunar landing since 1972 with the ultimate goal of establishing a permanent lunar base that will serve as a staging area for further solar system exploration. As the crew moves toward our closest neighbor, they will capture a stranded probe, repair and rebuild the probe and luanch it to the moon. A complete team effort is required for the ultimate challenge - a safe and successful lunar landing.
Voyage To Mars: Our voyage begins in the year 2076 with a relief crew in route to the Red Planet. The mission: to relieve the existing Mars Crew that has manned Mars Control for the past 2 years and launch a probe to one of the Martian moons.
