From engineers developing the technology used in Mars programmes, to those designing the next generation of missions, bringing an unprecedented level of authenticity, realism and legitimacy to the gameplay and its scenarios. We’ve collaborated with numerous experts in space exploration from the ESA in creating Mars Horizon. Mars Horizon has been made with the input and support of the European Space Agency (ESA) and the UK Space Agency. These are the critical moment-to-moment decisions of mission control do you spend power to fix a malfunctioning antenna or save it in case of an oxygen leak? Perhaps risking that extra three months of mission planning could have avoided this issue? But beware: space is a very unforgiving environment. In assuming the role of Flight Director of mission control, you'll need to manage your spacecraft's resources and solve strategic challenges in turn-based missions in order to succeed. Launching a payload into space is only the first step. This is the script for Science Mission Ref 7623 as listed in-game. For example, I used GaleCrater.scn and searched for ‘7623’. scn file so long as you edit a valid mission.

Tourists attempt to leave on a rocket to Earth after spending 5 Sols on Mars vacationing. They pay funds when departing from Mars based on how much they liked their holiday, shown in the Satisfaction stat. Hire contractors to construct vehicles and use their unique benefits to gain a key edge over your competitors. Head to the steam folder -> steamapps/common/Take On Mars/Scenarios/Campaign. Tourists have a Satisfaction stat, which tracks how much each tourist is enjoying their holiday, rated between 1 and 5 stars. Their own habitats and life-support units are meant to land within weeks of the first crew arriving. Construct the ideal rocket from historically-inspired vehicle parts. The second Mars One crew is planned for take off in 2026, for arrival the following year. You'll need to design and build the right spacecraft, hire and train the crew, and make strategic decisions as mission control to survive the journey to Mars.Įnter into diplomatic partnerships with other agencies to share the rewards of space exploration, or risk going it alone to gain greater prestige. Management is a vital aspect of Mars Horizon. Using actual events and missions as inspiration, can you handle the challenges faced by real space agencies? Every choice matters: will you invest in the most advanced technology or take risks in the rush to the red planet? Will you push to stay ahead of the other agencies, or focus on testing and research? There are multiple ways to ensure the first person on Mars is under your command. You’re in charge of every element of the journey into space: success rides on your decisions. Manage the numerous challenges faced then and now: Guide your agency through the space race and write your alternate history of space travel – any of the agencies can be the first to land on The Moon if you make the right choices.

In Mars Horizon, you take control of a major space agency, leading it from the dawn of the space age through to landing astronauts on Mars.
