SIM SITREP: After numerous very positive responsive demo sessions, showing LIFTOFF! 2.0 at ORIGINs ‘26, we had several space professionals try their hand demoing the sim/game and they found it quite accurately realistic with the “historical” progression and the excitement of running missions. The realism and risk management challenges shown thru with extra added pressure on their shoulders
One longer (by designed) session, was extremely parallel with space history in the early and mid stage of the space-race demo. The Soviets gaining the early leads with sats and first man in space and by 1965 the US is starting attempts to perform docking tests and space walks. There was a third alt-hist faction as well (CHINA) and it was developing a large power 3 stage rocket with side-boosters to carry a 2man capsule direct to the lunar surface landing on a Kicker-C (a large transition stage with landing-legs).
Projecting out (if we continued the scenario) Moon landings by all would have likely occurred in the Spring ‘69 to Spring ‘70 window estimates. Very close race and highly competitive !
While the difficulty range is a 3 to 3.25 on a 1 to 5 scale, the new version allows players to dial up the extra wrinkles of realism and extra missions that would make it more lifelike, with duration missions and lunar module test mission that both the US and Soviet did actually perform before moon landing plans.
The game is played by many professional strategic centers and find it quite appropriate for many lessons. Historical gamers and students of the cold-war will find this sim/game fascinating too!

1-4 players and with the rules for 2player teams it goes up to eight. There are also added expansions (more missions to Mars and to the present and beyond) and factions following up soon.
Check out the “Updates” on this site, using your web browser, to find info on more features and design tips on the sim/game.
🚨 The clearest image of Venus’s surface — captured by a Soviet lander that melted after just 2 hours 🪐🔥
This remains humanity’s only direct glimpse of the hellscape beneath those clouds: 860°F heat, crushing pressure, acid air.

BREAKING: A relic of the Cold War, the USSR’s old Cosmos 482 satellite has splash-landed in the Indian Ocean. Launched in 1972, it was originally bound for Venus but never made it. Space history just resurfaced.

8 main HEROES of #SovietSpace exploration
#AlexeiLeonov spent 12 minutes in open space for the first time in human history. He compared one minute there with one year of training on Earth.
Over these 12 minutes, spent floating next to the spaceship, Leonov’s spacesuit unpredictably inflated, which slowed all his movements. However, he managed to return to the spaceship, despite experiencing heavy g-forces. The chances of death in open space were very high.

@kennaninstitute #WilsonCtr #SovietSpace - Q: Whats the next Gagarin Moment A: Lewis I'm a historian, I don't predict the future! 😉
#KennanInstitute #WilsonCtr #SovietSpace - Asif Siddiqi - Rumors surrounding his death put and the uncertainty of how it happened also gave young people pause, then the loss of the "Lunar Race" in 1969. & the economic stagnation that happened after.
#KennanInstitute #WilsonCtr #SovietSpace - Asif Siddiqi - The past in the Soviet space program was just as important as the future, this bundling of the past and the future during the Gagarin era, the Soviet system was bursting with pride, but in the 1970's that waned, was..
#KennanInstitute #WilsonCtr #SovietSpace Slava Gerovitch Soviet govt wanted only limited recognition of Korolev as well was only identified after his passing The photo too of both was translated to a monument but with a different meaning.
