English translation:
"Even if you are not real astronauts, you can always try the space adventure.

At the helm of the spacecraft (open) you will have to be able to land on the moon, taking care not to consume all the fuel present in the tanks. Obviously, during the impact with the landing platform, the probe will not have to travel at high speed to avoid the destruction and consequent death of the astronauts. The winner is whoever manages to save as much fuel as possible. The game stimulates the competitors' ballistic calculation skills: by modifying the power of the engines you can adjust the descent to make a soft landing.

During the course of the game (which runs in LM) you can always check the power of the engines (Power), the speed of descent or ascent (Speed), the altitude (High) and the fuel (Fuel) indicated by the "peak level "at the bottom of the screen.

It is useless to remind beginners that they can indulge themselves by modifying the parameters specified with the REM in the listing.
For the more daring, we recommend that you try to replace the part of the program that creates the lunar landscape (lines 320 to 372) with another sub-program, to improve and customize the graphics of the game."
