PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Our project is a fun, easy to understand game made to be repetitive and educational. It contains 2 parts starting with trivia where the answer is one of the planets or Pluto or Psyche as the answer. Then after the answer is selected it lets you land on the planet (or celestial body) that you selected and get points based off the landing (and the trivia question). Then it repeats until the user fails the lander mission.
