Test Your Intuition of Physical Principles with OutPost Game

What's up with outpost 14?

uh oh. There was a bug with outpost 14. Its Y-coordinate was out of Flash's reach, so I moved it up. I guess you're still going to the version with that bug in it?

WTF!?

I'm going as slow as humanly possible. With VERY little vertical motion and NO horizontal motion and I can't LAND!

I tried a few dozen times!

Yes, it is flat too!

Where are you trying to land?

I landed now, finally. After 1902 hours of trying.

Now that's determination! Good job!

BTW, the links to the old Lunar Outpost all point to the newest version.

BTWW... Does anyone have any ideas for some "nutty gizmos" that I could add to the ship that are physical in nature but fun to play around with?

Make the up button fire a main thruster (center of ship)
Make the down button place the side thrusters further/closer from the center.

Show us the physics involved!
