Kerbal Space Program

[Peppermint]

Having a blast with this (pun intended). Only picked it up last week and after a few days I'm finally getting the hang of it, so far I've managed to launch 3 satellites/probes, crashed into the moon twice and landed on there once, and now just started to build a space station (first successful rendevous and docking). $23 on Steam or from https://kerbalspaceprogram.com/ and well worth it. Plenty of mods for it too.

It really is pretty challenging, just when you think you can do something on your own you run into problems. Expanded on my space station today by adding a refuelling tank, Must have taken about 2 hours of trial/error before I brought up a tutorial to get it right. Ended up using all of my RCS fuel and by some stroke of luck, drifted into the right posistion to dock. Also put an Ion powered space probe into orbit around Minmus (first planet out from the Earth/Kerbin), forgot to deploy the solar panels on the first one so that's a dead probe drifint off into space!
