Fly an Apollo-inspired journey from Earth to the Moon and back in a single-player 3D spaceflight simulator. Build the Saturn V, launch from Earth, travel to lunar orbit, and pilot the Eagle lunar module through a 19-mission campaign. Prepare the rocket, follow the countdown, manage engine burns, adjust your orbit, dock with the lunar module, and guide your descent to the Moon. Explore the lunar surface, launch back into orbit, rendezvous with Columbia, then return to Earth for reentry and a Pacific splashdown. Each mission has a different objective, from Saturn V assembly and launch to lunar landing, surface exploration, orbital rendezvous, reentry, and recovery. Improve your control of launches, spacecraft navigation, docking, landing speed, and approach angle as you progress. Take the controls and see if you can complete all 19 missions and bring the crew safely home. Questions or support: domatic.software@gmail.com
