Mission: ISS:
Immersive VR Experience

Removing the barriers to exploration

NASA’s goal was simple: bring the magic of space travel to everyone. Virtual Reality is uniquely suited for transporting users to environments that are otherwise too dangerous or expensive to reach. With that in mind, Mission: ISS was designed to dissolve those barriers, allowing anyone with a headset to finally experience the reality of life in orbit.

Built from authentic NASA models and refined by the first-hand accounts of astronauts, the experience recreates the International Space Station in painstaking detail. Rather than just observing, users are invited to master the station: you can learn to navigate in zero-gravity, dock incoming capsules, and even step outside for a cinematic spacewalk.

To ground the experience in reality, real astronauts appear via instructional video clips, guiding users through authentic STEM-based experiments and missions. Because the environment is fully immersive, it achieves a genuine sense of weightlessness—a sensation our astronaut advisors recognized immediately. In fact, more than one remarked that putting on the headset felt exactly like making a return trip.
