Our take on Rocket Explorer

The presentation emphasizes access to unusual launch viewpoints and close inspection, but the experience centers on viewing, comparison, launches, and disassembly rather than a broader rocket-building or piloting game. Its scope is primarily an interactive showcase.

What is Rocket Explorer?

Rocket Explorer presents more than 40 detailed rockets at real-world scale across several settings, including a viewer, launch pad, and hangar.

The experience allows rockets to be launched from virtual locations that cannot normally be visited, then viewed from close range. Configurations can be examined and rockets compared side by side. Each vehicle can also be disassembled to reveal its individual stages, with an exploded presentation available. The experience supports virtual reality through a dedicated VR version.
