About
A professional simulator that makes space engineering accessible. We help experts and enthusiasts work together to solve the complex problems of lunar survival before we ever leave Earth. We aim to become the central hub for all space simulations
Impact
We make 'rocket science' accessible to everyone to empower a new generation of space architects. LunCoSim helps remote and underserved communities to participate in the space economy, making that space exploration benefits all of humanity
Progress
Our alpha version is ready for collaborative simulation of lunar rover missions. People all over the world can run missions like it was the real one. We have alpha version available at https://alpha.lunco.space
Team
Our team is made of professional space people. It's led by Rod Mamin, system engineer with hands on experience in building lunar rovers, and Rina Faber, planetary scientist, who is running an IRL Lunar Training Facility

Season totals as displayed on the platform's public accounting — not a statement of amounts paid out. V2 = Venus sales + Venus extras. The original page also broke each season down by fund drive and showed an Available (unclaimed) balance; that level of detail survives only on the preserved snapshots.
