Kerbal Space Program
Assemble fully-functional spacecraft and explore the solar system.

Kerbal Space Program is a space flight simulation game where players design and build spacecraft using realistic aerodynamic and orbital physics. Players launch crews into orbit, explore moons and planets within the Kerbol solar system, and construct bases and space stations. The game has an active modding community and an official wiki, along with a sequel, Kerbal Space Program 2.
Players assemble spacecraft from a library of parts and launch them into a simulated solar system governed by realistic aerodynamic and orbital physics.
