Description

Lunar Lander for the HP programmable calculator plays similar to other variants. The lunar landing module starts at 10,000 feet and falls at 16 feet per second squared. The player can input a duration and whether the thruster should be on or off. The goal is to reach the moon's surface within two feet with a velocity of 2 feet per second or less. The player only has limited fuel to burn.
