How to Play
Welcome to the International Space Station (ISS), astronaut. In Station Spacewalk Game, revel in the thrill of painting NASA arrangements on the International Space Station. After negotiating your way through the airlock, you, the astronaut, will be assigned an essential responsibility to force the area station to continue operating. First take your time to explore the complex, then it’s time to go to the paintings. You will want to move temporarily and carefully, with a limited amount of oxygen, you will need to complete your extravehicular activities (EVA) and return to the airlock before your air source runs out.
This video game features genuine world EVA simulations conducted through NASA astronauts in a project to force the area station. The graphics used in this game belong to genuine NASA projects and incorporate 3-d graphics used through the Agency.
Mission objectives
Explore the ISS. Before you start with your EVAs, feel free to explore the ISS. Enjoy your self-guided visit. Configure farm S6. You are guilty of installing the fourth built-in starboard beam segment (S6). Farms are essential for the continuity of the International Space Station, as they shape the backbone of the station. Implement S6 berries. The main power source of the area station comes from 3 of the 4 giant photovoltaic panels that are lately found in the station, called Solar Array Wings (SAW). Can you assemble the fourth set of solar panels at the station? Get on the robot’s arm. There’s a break in the solar panel! Can you mount the robot’s arm and then use the pliers to fix the tear? Get your equipment back. You have used many equipment to perform your repair work. Today, many of them are scattered in the area. How many of them can you recover before you go back to the airlock? Perform SPHERE experiments. SPHERES are small satellites tested through NASA on the ISS. One day, they will help astronauts examine the area and even participate in orbiting structure projects. But first, they have to be in shape to fly in training. Can you help the SPHERES make their way through the hoops of the NASA experiment? Restore area-to-ground communications. The ISS has lost voice and knowledge with project control. Take a walk through the area so that communications are back online by powering an auxiliary antenna.
