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.
