Kerbal Space Program

A space-program sandbox where you design rockets from parts and fly them with realistic orbital physics. You run a program for a small alien crew, launch into orbit, reach moons and planets and build bases. Rockets fail often, and learning from them is the game. Is it your kind of game?
