Welcome Back

UPDATED MARCH 2022 The COVID pandemic has not been easy on anyone and Endeavour’s mission hasn’t been immune. But while our attempts to open up the concept have been delayed, we've used the time to build out new capabilities. And now as lockdown restrictions ease we’re getting ready to welcome new members and crew to the mission.

One of the first simulation missions to be made available for the Academy simulator is the tactical Hunt/Kill scenario. It presents an encounter between opposing forces around a planet in a distant star system, with one ship protecting a discovery made on the planet, and the other attempting to steal its secrets.

Endeavour's Crew
Posted By:

How many people will Endeavour need to make it into deep space? That’s a question several teams have been working on recently, for a number of reasons.

It’s a question of crucial concern to the vessel design team, who need to balance the number of people necessary to operate the ship’s systems with the amount of living space needed to ensure safety and comfort on long cruises. Endeavour’s systems will be complex but many functions can be managed by artificial intelligence built into the command and control systems, reducing the number of crew needed.
