In Qrbit you must pilot a ship through a variety of missions around the solar system. This game is extremely accurate to the real world (and hence very difficult).

You maneuver a ship through a variety of random scientific missions, hopefully with the aid of some physics knowledge. This is very geeky game which requires visualization and plenty of patience. This won't appeal to everybody.

Gameplay is continuous. You are allowed to adjust how fast the simulation runs, and you can zoom all the way from a close-up of your ship to seeing the nearby planets. All distances, scales, and speeds are shown accurately.

The missions range from aligning orbits to traveling to other planets, all with very limited fuel or time.

You have to be thoughtful and patient. A feel for physics helps too.

What's New:
Redesigned interface
New and modified levels for a better learning curve
Packaged spaceflight tutorial.
