Five live operations drills under real-time pressure. Six cascade decision rooms where early choices constrain later ones. Pick one, click play, and run it. No account required.
Five free sandbox runs per visitor per 24 hours. Sign up after to save your competency radar and compare it against the cohort.
Real-time pressure. Telemetry shifts, fault queues, range conflicts. You decide on the clock, the engine scores how you held judgment under load. These are the “decisions under pressure” rooms.
Operations pressure
Three mission days. Real Pc thresholds. Allocate the sensor network as fresh CDMs land, classify each threat, decide when to burn. Every gram of propellant you spend here is propellant you cannot use at end-of-life.
Operations pressure
Telemetry deviates. The fault queue grows. SLA contracts published at start-of-mission constrain every recovery call. Prioritize, escalate, or recover before a cascade kills the bird.
End-of-life pressure
Aim the descending ground track at the South Pacific Ocean Uninhabited Area while staying clear of populated bands and the ISS shell. Real-time 3D. Miss the SPOUA and Liability Convention exposure becomes the debrief.
Flagship live sim
Sit the console for a multi-day mission. Telemetry streams, anomalies trigger, the flight director defers calls to you. Pick Lunar Gateway for first run; Mars Sample Return waits for the second.
Intel pressure
Multi-source intel rotates. EMI signatures, CDM anomalies, suspicious co-orbital approaches. Classify threats, allocate sensing, commit response. Decoys are designed to fool you — the debrief shows where they did.
Architecture, formulation, policy. Each early call shapes the next, the way a real program's early decisions shape its whole future. By the final call, your design closes or it doesn't.
Architecture trade
Six architecture trades for a maritime-domain-awareness constellation: orbit, ground network, launch, regulatory posture, payload, and bus. Every choice cites a real commercial program. By trade six, the design closes or it doesn't.
Life-support architecture
Stand up a four-crew lunar surface habitat across twelve phases. Power, thermal, ECLSS, and ISRU choices in phase one constrain what phase eight can rescue when a fault cascade lands.
Resilience architecture
Eighteen months of monthly ticks across an aerospace supply chain. Sole-source choices, redundancy budgets, and counterfeit-electronics screening cascade across phases. Boeing Starliner and Comet-Interceptor cases land in the debrief.
Cross-subsystem trade
Trade payload against bus against trajectory against launch. Mass, power, thermal, comm budgets all close together or none of them do. Landsat OLI, Sentinel-1 SAR, Iridium NEXT, and JWST live as reference points per option.
Constitutional cascade
Hold the Framework Steward seat for the Artemis Corridor's first constitutional cycle. Eight Articles, eight governance postures, sixteen crises — a stewardship objection that pauses the machine, a drift monitor that catches practice diverging from principle. Then defend the cycle before the Review Assembly.
Policy and law
Work through treaty language, precedent, and state incentives in a contested space-law scenario. Your opening argument frames every later move. BATNA stays hidden, like real negotiation.
What the sandbox proves
Not a marketing video. Real branching scenarios with telemetry, time pressure, and a debrief that names what your call cost.
Every sim maps to the two to five competency dimensions it actually exercises, out of the twelve the curriculum tracks. Sign up and your runs carry into that radar.
The dimensions a run exercises map onto the six-module curriculum, so your results seed a pathway recommendation once you have an account.
