High-Level Project Summary
We made a lunar simulator to help people understand how to land on moon. The player will understand fundamentals of landing a lander on moon. Such as how it’s orientation effects landers velocity and its trajectory, how to manage fuel, electricity and land safely on lunar surface. Also the player can experience how to maneuver the rover across lunar surface.

Detailed Project Description
Player can handle his/her spaceship by his/her own and land it safe on moon. But he needs to manage its resources as well. Players need to identify the suitable landing area. Anyway, selecting a safest place might not be enough as well. Player must take decisions depending on available resources as well.
