Kerbal space program is a ridiculously fun game. You are placed as the head of the KSC, a space centre dedicated to exploring what is out there.

Step 1: scouting. Build a rocket, send it into orbit, make another rocket satellite, send it to another planet, explore and analyse. Send another rocket, make a house on said planet, then send a kerbal up to live in it.

Step 2: Find a kerbal willing to go into space. You start the game with a grand total of 4 kerbal astronauts. 2 of these are OK, but the best 2 are Jeb and Valentina.

Step 3: More rocket time. Make more rockets until accidentally stumbling across a design that can transport squishy animal life to your chosen planet.

Step 4: EXPANSION. Make more rockets, slowly gaining quality, learn to play the game better, earn billions from your “Totally legit” Spy satellite system, sit back on your private planet, and relax. Enjoy playing the game single player or multiplayer in Kerbal space program, and have fun!
