To the Moon and Back

About the game

The moon — an astronomical body that orbits planet Earth and was once considered a god — has become the ultimate travel destination.

The time has come for you to launch your space rocket, travel through the depths of space, and land your astronaut back on Earth safely! Do you accept the challenge?

Characteristics

Dive into the space ocean and discover the magic of space trips! The event climaxes in an exciting lift-off, going through 3–4 phases:

Intro speech: an introduction presents the big picture of the Space Race of the '60s, combining facts, values, and team effort — enhanced by short but powerful videos about historical facts and a presentation that helps your team incorporate that knowledge into their own project.

Astronauts bootcamp (optional): setting foot on the moon required years of tough physical and mental preparation. Take a glimpse at that arduous training through our team tests, specially designed to get the fun out of you!

Rocket science: the teams (6–8 people) start their "impossible" project of building a rocket, manning it with an astronaut, and calculating its safe return to Earth. Each team splits into three departments — Engineering, Life Support, Navigation — that operate independently but must always cooperate and communicate horizontally. At the end of the 60-minute deadline, all teams assemble their rockets and get ready for liftoff!

T minus 30 seconds: we move outside for the final countdown. The Control Center gets your rocket to the launch pad and prepares its high-tech engines for ignition. If everything's worked well for your team, expect an impressive lift-off and re-entry of your astronaut that will become part of space exploration history!
