I'm a huge fan of things like KSP so this is a cool concept. The ambience is quite nice. Not sure if there was a way to interact with any of the terminals beyond focusing on them. I think you could turn this into something really good with some time.

I love the concept of this game and would have loved to see the finished version. The ambience was amazing, very relaxing and introspective. I liked how each terminal had different functions and I think would have made for a very interesting gameplay loop.

I like the vision you had, regardless of the game's current state. It was a much different style of game to what most people went for, and I think it could've turned out really interesting.

Nice use of narrative for re-entry theme. It seems like the goal was to help a space ship re-enter the planet. Though I did not understand what game player there is in your game. I was just able to press space to zoom in and out of the different screens. The eye to highlight what we are looking at is cool.
When I was using the left screen if I keep moving the camera/telescope I eventually see the edge of the star texture and start seeing the sky box.
