# Lost in Space

You’re the captain of an experimental space ship that can’t be detected by enemy ships.

Suddenly, an electrical fire is reported by the navigator. It is quickly extinguished, but the damage is severe.

The auto-pilot, main engine and laser gun won’t respond, so you switch to manual and auxiliary thrusters. The only working controls are the rotate right and left thrusters. Checking the status monitor indicates only 30 Ibs of fuel is left.

During the crisis, your ship wandered into a meteor shower. You must maneuver left or right to avoid hitting meteors and enemy ships.

Your new mission is to locate the fleet of friendly fuel ships and attempt to land on one in order to refuel and continue the journey.
