Core Features

Real GitHub Integration

Your commits become energy. Your PRs become materials. Your issues become data. Code your way to the stars.

Real Orbital Mechanics

Hohmann transfers, gravity assists, delta-v budgets. Our calculations match NASA values.

Multi-Transport Sync

Internet down? Sync via LoRa mesh, ham radio, QR codes, or USB. The mission continues.

Kaizen Hackathons

Real challenges that build real tech. ECLSS simulators, ISRU prototypes, mesh networking.

Physics-Based Tech Tree

32 technologies based on NASA roadmaps. Every dependency is real physics.

Git-Forge Agnostic

Works with GitHub today. Gitea and Forgejo support for self-hosted tomorrow.
