6 hours into the game, still in the same solar system, visited 3 planets and exploring them and deliver the trade items that to fast fill up my small storage capacity to the space station for cash
in the meantime i found also outpost-ruins where the vegetation had started to creep inside.... and was able to reset some alien machinery outpots to get them functional again
JH, et al. is right! This piece of software is highly addictive

to enjoy the "game" you better have to channel your inner Chagall, Dali, and also Ansel Adams (landscape photography) not so much your inner Roddenberry or Lucas, and don't even think about your inner S.Hawking, or C.Darvin.
its about the journey, the sudden vistas of stunning surrealistic-psychedelic landscapes (and with the knowledge at the back of one's mind that you are the first and probably also the last human who will ever see exactly this picture)
Its like hiking Zion National Park and similar places in UT and AZ. I didn't hiked to The Subway (on a rare permit) for just the workout...
but would have loved to also had a little jetpack on the last klick on way back up the cliff to the trailhead ;-)IMHO the game mechanic and the story to uncover is just one method
to get the visitors to join the Vernissage, to move on from exposition hall to exposition hall and from picture to picture of contemporary fluxus-style computer art on display.
