You're a spaceship captain, and your objective is to explore the depths of the far sector. Build, research, and use the sector's uncharted horrors to your advantage. How far will you go to accomplish your goal? What are you willing to sacrifice? The decision is all yours, captain. Your own space base Build, improve, and optimize. Ensure that your station can withstand whatever is thrown at it. Encounter the horrors of the far sector Meteorite fields keeping you from getting through the cold cosmos. Spatial anomalies that challenge the very laws of physics humans have used to understand the world around them. Strange organisms with qualities never seen before. They bring with them incredible danger as well as the opportunity for scientific breakthroughs. Space madness and paranoia that wrap themselves around anyone who has been in deep space for too long. While most people aren't prone to this problem, a few of your crew members are going to get progressively worse as your travels go on. How will you avert a crisis? What else does the far sector have in store for you? Make the best of catastrophes Use mold-contaminated cultures to filter oxygen. Study notes of madmen to find encrypted coordinates. Spill the blood of an all-consuming alien life form to create a regenerating ointment.
