This tutorial will cover the basics of making your first machine to landing on Mars.

Getting Started

Building rockets, space stations and colonies on new worlds may seem a little overwhelming, if you're just starting out. So here is a small guide to getting started with Galacticraft!

First Steps

Before you head into space, you will need a few items including the Tier 1 Rocket, Rocket Launch Pad, Oxygen Sealer, Oxygen Bubble Distributor, Oxygen Gear, Oxygen Mask, Oxygen Compressor, Parachute, Compressor, Fuel Loader, Oxygen Tank x2, and Oxygen Collector, as these are the most vital necessities you will need on your journey into space.

Obtain Oxygen Apparatus and a Parachute

The four most crucial items you will need are the Parachute and Oxygen Gear and Oxygen Mask and Oxygen Tank. Once you have acquired this equipment you are almost ready. After this, all you need left are the GC machines.

Build Oxygen Machines, Refine Fuel, and Launch Your Ship

Lastly, it is necessary to build a few machines before going to the moon, some of them you will be taking with you. You will need to make the Oxygen Compressor, Oxygen Bubble Distributor, Oxygen Sealer, Oxygen Collector, and the Fuel Loader. Next, you will need to make the Rocket Launch Pad and Tier 1 Rocket, of course. Once you have the rocket and launch pad, you need to make the Fuel Loader.

Don't Forget!

Be sure to do a little research about the Moon so that you know how (and when) to land safely!

What Next?

There are tons of great things you can try out in Galacticraft, and more are being added all the time!

Here's a short list of things to try out:

Construct an Overworld Space Station and invite your friends.
Explore the Moon and make contact with a colony of Moon Villagers.
Make your mark, by placing a Flag on the Moon or try it on the Overworld.
Mine up some Cheese Ore.
Establish an oxygen supply system on your Space Station, or Moon Colony.
Continue on to Mars.

-Before you head into space, you will need a few items including the [[Tier 1 Rocket]], [[Rocket Launch Pad]], [[Oxygen Sealer]], [[Oxygen Bubble Distributor]], [[Oxygen Gear]], [[Oxygen Mask]], [[Oxygen Compressor]], [[Parachute]], [[Oxygen Tank]] x2, and [[Oxygen Collector]], as these are the most vital necessities you will need on your journey into space.

 === Obtain Oxygen Apparatus and a Parachute ===
-Four items are required to visit and explore space: an [[Oxygen Mask]], [[Oxygen Gear]], and two Oxygen Tanks ([[Light Oxygen Tank]], [[Medium Oxygen Tank]], or [[Heavy Oxygen Tank]]). The two tanks need to be filled with compressed air from an [[Oxygen Compressor]]. When full, even a pair of Light Oxygen Tanks will provide enough air for a short tour of the Moon. All four of these items should be equipped into the special inventory slots set aside for them.
+The four most crucial items you will need are the [[Parachute]] and [[Oxygen Gear]] and [[Oxygen Mask]] and [[Oxygen Tank]]. Once you have acquired this equipment you are almost ready. After this, all you need left are the GC machines.
-Secondly, a [[Parachute]] is almost always required to visit space, and if you attempt to take off without it, you will be reminded that it is needed to return to the Overworld. Parachutes are required to re-enter the atmosphere safely after your trip, although if you're lucky, you might land in water and survive the atmospheric descent anyway.

-=== Refine Fuel and Fuel Your Ship ===
-Lastly, it is vital to fuel your ship for take-off. To do so, you'll need to get your hands on some [http://minecraftbuildcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Fuel BuildCraft] or [[Rocket Fuel|Galacticraft Fuel]]. Fuel can be made in a [[Refinery]] from either [http://minecraftbuildcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Oil BuildCraft] or [[Oil (Galacticraft)|Galacticraft Oil]]. The point is that both fuels and oils are interchangeable, and Galacticraft has its own [[Refinery]] block if you'd like to use it.
-Once you have some fuel, you'll want to set up your [[Rocket Launch Pad]] blocks in a 3x3 configuration on the ground to create your launch pad. You'll also want to place your [[Spaceship]] on top of the launch pad. Finally, you will need to craft a [[Fuel Loader]] and place it adjacent to the launch pad, so that it plugs in.  Providing some power and fuel to the [[Fuel Loader]] will cause it to fuel up your Spaceship, which will then be ready for launch. Jump inside by right clicking your Spaceship and hold down the space bar to launch. Bon Voyage!
