Mars Horizon is a strategy simulation game where you lead a major space agency as you guide humanity to Mars. Construct a base, design and build rockets, conduct missions throughout the Solar System, and write your own history of Space exploration.

Mars Horizon was created with support from the European Space Agency (ESA) and the UK Space Agency and developed by Auroch Digital & published by The Irregular Corporation. Both Space Agencies have been integral to making Mars Horizon the game we wanted it to be, so we'd like to say a huge thank you to them.

Tim Peake became the first official British astronaut to walk in space while on a mission to the International Space Station (ISS) in 2016. He spent six years training for the mission, beating 8,000 other applicants who responded to an ad from the ESA entitled, ‘Do you want to be an astronaut?’. Tim worked on every one of his 186 days in space with the majority of his experiments focussing on what space does to human physiology.

He also, with help from celebrity chef Heston Blumenthal, enjoyed the first bacon sandwich to ever be consumed in space! 🥪
