🌙 Lunar Outpost 2

🛰️ Where our NASA data comes from

Everything marked LIVE is fetched right now from NASA's public DONKI space-weather API. Everything marked CURATED is a real NASA fact we looked up by hand. Game balance numbers (costs, gains) are designed for play — they are not NASA data.

• LIVE Solar particle events & CMEs — NASA DONKI API (api.nasa.gov/DONKI). Real solar storm records; when the Moon has no air, these events are exactly what hits your crew.
• CURATED The Moon has no atmosphere, so radiation (solar particles and galactic cosmic rays) reaches the surface — no weather to block it.
• CURATED Water ice at the lunar south pole — NASA's LCROSS mission (2009) confirmed ice in permanently shadowed craters. That is why "Search for ice" works in this game.
• CURATED Regolith shielding — NASA's Open Science Data Repository (OSDR) hosts real studies on using Moon soil to block radiation. That is your "Maintain shield" action.
• CURATED Astronaut health in space — OSDR research shows radiation affects bones, blood and eyes over time. Crew radiation here is simplified from that idea: it only goes down when the crew genuinely rests.
