The game now opens on a 3D map of the nearby stars. Click one and the simulation plans the trip: your years against Earth's.

What's new​

  • A galaxy map of the nearby-star catalogue: drag to orbit, scroll to zoom, click to plan.
  • A cruise slider from 0.9c to 0.999999c, spaced evenly in rapidity, 0.99c by default.
  • Every number on the panel comes straight from the AILANG simulation. α Centauri A at 0.99c: 0.6208 years for you, 4.401 for Earth, 1.80 minutes of boost at each end.
