"Last week a curious, free release popped up on Steam: Moonbase Alpha, a
NASA-funded game where up to six players can team up in order to save a
near-future Lunar base crippled by a meteor strike. The game is just the
first release from NASA's Learning Technologies program, which aims to
help raise interest in the space program through gaming."

Share and enjoy,

waste dumps blew up and pushed the moon out of orbit.........
