## What is Advanced Space Flight Lite?

Advanced Space Flight is a realistic space simulator for interplanetary and interstellar travel. It is the only space simulator available that takes into account relativistic effects during interstellar flight.
Besides simulating space flight, this app can also be used as a planetarium, with all known planets shown in real scale with their accurate keplerian orbits. It can also be used as a star chart and exoplanet explorer, showing all solar systems with confirmed exoplanets within 50 light years from the Sun.
This is the only app where you can get a sense of the true scale of the Universe, zooming out through thousands of galaxies and galaxy clusters until you see the entire observable universe in your screen.

Locations with full access:
- All inner planets in the Solar System and its moons: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Moon, Mars, Phobos, Deimos, Ceres
- Nearby star systems: Proxima Centauri, Alpha Centauri, Sirius, Epsilon Eridani

Locations with partial access:
- All solar system planets plus 5 dwarf planets.
- All confirmed exoplanetary solar systems within 50 light years.
- Experience the full scale of the Universe: you can zoom out from a few meters to billions of light years, until you see the entire observable universe in your screen.

Flight Modes:
- Realistic Flight: Travel using optimised trajectories, calculated based on the orbital parameters of the origin and destination planets to minimise fuel usage. These are the kind of trajectories that would be used in a real space mission.
- Free Flight: Take manual control of a spaceship in space, activating the engines as you see fit to achieve your goals.

Spaceships:
Advanced Space Flight features several spacecraft, but only one in available in this free version:
- Space Shuttle (Chemical Rocket): Designed in 1968-1972 y NASA and North American Rockwell. It has been in service from 1981 to 2011, making it the most successful reusable spacecraft ever built.
- Falcon Heavy (Chemical Rocket): Designed and manufactured by SpaceX, made its first flight in 2018.
- Nuclear Ferry (Nuclear Thermal Rocket): Designed in 1964 by Ling-Temco-Vought Inc.
- Lewis Ion Rocket (Ion Drive): Designed in a 1965 study by the Lewis Research Center.

Artificial Satellites:
Several human-made satellites are present in the app:
- Sputnik 1
- Hubble Space Telecope
- Internation Space Station
- Kepler Space Observatory
- Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS)
- James Webb Space Telescope

### 3/5 — Good app

*2025-11-28*

When I go other ones except Sun have messages

### 5/5 — good

*2024-07-22*

I like this game but don’t have enough money to buy full

### 3/5 — Need more spaceships

*2024-07-21*

Here’s some suggestions we need missions and more launchpads also skylon needs to be addded
The rest is good

### 3/5 — Can you add jupiter and neptune rings

*2023-12-04, version 1.14.0*

Pls add tose planets rings becuze they have rings they have tranparent rings so pls add the rings

### 3/5 — Super mais…

*2022-10-01, version 1.13.1*

Super jeu!!! Seulement avec la version gratuite je ne trouve pas l’ISS et autre. Je pense aussi que c’est un simulateur à la fois complexe et à la foi simple. On ne peut pas par exemple ouvrir la soute pour la navette. La rentrée stratosphérique est bien mais j’ai l’impression qu’on ne peut atterrir sur terre avec la navette et autre. Peut-être est ce moi qui n’ayant pas beaucoup d’expérience ne peut pas accéder aux fonctionnalités et qu’elle se débloque. Mais dans ce cas ça pourrait mettre au jeu une fausse image. Je trouve quand même ce jeu plutôt cool bien qu’il manque des vaisseaux (Ariane, soyouz etc) mais ça reste un bon jeux. A télécharger et si vous aimez acheter la version payante.

### 1/5 — Very disappointed >:(

*2022-09-03, version 1.12.1*

Huh? Really? I need to buy the  ANNOYING FULL GAME DUH. I don’t have enough money to buy the full game! I can’t go mars and even the others planets! You want money soo much! That make people buy to get richer! Bad game really really bad game.

### 3/5 — Probably just a few suggestions

*2022-08-03*

you need multiplayer and stages on the Rockets

### 5/5 — Thanks

*2022-07-23, version 1.12.1*

<3

### 3/5 — Great but some issues

*2022-07-16*

Okay so I like this game but I just cannot go beyond the moon like AT ALL but that might just be me since I can only play KSP with infinite fuel and other shenanigans but other then that I like this a lot also I don’t know how to unlock more rockets and the only other one I have gotten is the Lewis ion rocket I also graphics for the planets and moons to be more realistic *sorry weak tablet or phone users* but other then that really good game

### 4/5 — I have rockets but

*2022-04-11*

I need to unlock some faster rockets for free
