In 2159, a solar flare hit the surface of Mars, destroying all satellite communication between the handful of colonies on the terraformed surface. As the ORFS UN initiative, you are tasked with reestablishing communication and building a new satellite network for a better future. The colonies of Mars depend on you. Godspeed.

Gameplay
========
Launch satellites and scan sites from Low Mars Orbit to reveal the surface of the planet. Earn funds with mining surveys, satellite imagery and communication relays to boost satellites into higher orbits. Restore communication with all colonies of Mars.

Sites
=====
Craters: Scan craters using a satellite with a Mineral Scanner [MSE] from Low Mars Orbit or Medium Mars Orbit to periodically earn research funds.

Abandoned Sites: Photograph from Low Mars Orbit using a camera [CAM] to document the site and earn funds.

Colonies: Colonies need to be connected to the ORFS Home Base using satellite relays. Make sure that the satellites have the [COM] upgrade and line of sight of each other and the home base. A geostationary orbit can help establishing a reliable network.
