Orbital Operations Training

Keep the mission alive.

You are the flight director for the Asteria-7 orbital research mission. Monitor spacecraft systems, respond to anomalies, and balance immediate survival against long-term mission objectives.

Pre-Mission Brief

Asteria-7 orbital research mission

Your decisions will influence five interconnected systems. Every response has tradeoffs. The strongest decision is not always the one that protects a single system—it is the one that preserves the mission as a whole.

Power

Electrical load

Supports life support, communications, thermal control, and experiments.

Oxygen

Crew survival

Consumed continuously. Leaks and scrubber failures accelerate depletion.

Fuel

Orbital control

Used for collision avoidance, stabilization, and return trajectory.

Comms

Ground contact

Required for telemetry, navigation updates, and emergency support.

Trajectory

Orbital stability

Degrades when maneuver windows are missed or guidance is compromised.

Flight Director Guidance: Review the complete anomaly description and compare the system impacts of each response before committing.
