Mission Briefing
You will leave Earth in your ship, the USS Beyond. Alone in a small but sophisticated ship, you must use technology and piloting skills for your long and hazardous journey. When you return, if you do, millions of years would have passed on Earth. On your way to the edge of the universe you shall gather all the information about the universe possible.

Your ship is equipped with a matter filter, long distance lasers, gravity aura, powerful shields, and gravity/antigravity time warp core to assist you in surviving through the hazardous journey. Your lasers are matter/antimatter beams to be more powerful and go a further distance. Your gravity aura will suck in all minerals from the asteroids you have shot down. The matter filter separates the asteroid minerals to transfer them into fuel, energy for the shields, or vitamins (food).

The shields are made by concentrated nuclear energy from the nuclear furnace inside your ship. The gravity/antigravity time warp core warps time and space so you feel normal while your body is being stationed in such high gravity. In this state, time stops and moves for you so you can survive the journey with no problems. Your vitamins (food) are made from the left over asteroid residue and are used sparsely so there is little threat of running out.

Now you face your challenge across the deep and formidable space. Fighting insanity and death, you shall JOURNEY TO THE EDGE OF THE UNIVERSE!
