Launch Window: 1961
Run a private rocket company in the 1960s Space Race
by Ben Hamilton
Summary
You run a commercial launch firm in an alternate-history 1960s, bidding against rival companies for contracts that demand specific altitudes, orbits, and passenger recoveries. Pick vehicles like the Mercury-Redstone or Saturn V, set azimuth and staging, and decide how much preparation and insurance each launch can afford before 1976.
- Four historic American launch vehicles, from Mercury-Redstone to Saturn V
- Bid against rival firms on deadline-based contracts
- Three company upgrades chosen before the campaign starts
