Message into Space is a Timed Quest about Alien Life in which the player has 192 hours to build and upgrade a total of 3 new fixed structures with assets leading to exclusive rewards. It was released as part of an update on 04.17.2015.[1]
"The inhabitants of other worlds could teach us something new! Megapolis's scientists propose that we establish contact with extraterrestrial civilizations. To do this, we'll need to send a capsule into space with an encoded message on board."
"Send a message for extraterrestrial civilizations! To do this, you need to build a Space Research Institute, Long-Distance Control System, Xenoarchaeology Academy and Data Storage Center." "The residents beg the mayor: Send a message into space" "To send a capsule with a message, we need to build a Space Research Institute, Long-Distance Control System, Xenoarchaeology Academy and Data Storage Center." |
Requirements
TIP Depending on how one plays the game, this quest may require approximately total (for assets) and (for contracts, buildings and foundation purchases) to complete fully. |
Stage 1 - Preparing for Research[]
Does life exist on other planets? If so, then extraterrestrial civilizations could teach us something new. We must make contact with the inhabitants of other planets. Let's send a message into space!
Tasks:
- To make some interstellar friends, you're going to have to make some preparations! Start building a Space Research Institute.
Buy a Space Research Institute Foundation |
Rewards:
- Great start! You receive building materials as a reward. You can find them in your Storehouse.
Stage 2 - Space Research Institute[]
Before we send a message, we have to calculate which parts of the galaxy could be home to extraterrestrial life.
Tasks:
- Finish building the Space Research Institute. Very soon, you'll confirm the existence of extraterrestrial civilizations!

Rewards:
- Keep it up! Continue your space research and be sure to tell your friends all about it!
Stage 3 - Hidden Life in the Galaxy[]
We need irrefutable proof that life exists on other planets! We're going to need very powerful telescopes and equipment.
Tasks:
- Build a Radio Observatory so you can start to find proof that extraterrestrial civilizations exist!
Buy a Long-Distance Control System Foundation | ||

Accept a Confirming the Existence of Extraterrestrial Civilizations contract
|
Rewards:
- Great work. At the very edge of the galaxy, we really did find life! For the work you've done, you receive a well-deserved reward.
Stage 4 - Contact Plan[]
Will life on distant planets understand our message? And how are we going to send it? We have to form a plan for our interstellar contact project.
Tasks:
- Develop an interstellar contact plan and start building a Long-Distance Control System. Don't forget to invite your friends!

|
Rewards:
- Keep up the good work! As a reward, you receive some experience.
Stage 5 - Long-Distance Control System[]
To ensure the safety of our message, we need to hide it in the capsule. The Long-Distance Control System will ensure that the capsule doesn't deviate from its set course.
Tasks:
- The decision is made! We'll send the message using a long-range controlled capsule. We'll need to build a Long-Distance Control System and calculate the precise coordinates.

Rewards:
- You put in a lot of effort, and as a reward you receive the Ufology Association. You can find it in your Storehouse.
Stage 6 - Encoded Message[]
Xenoarchaeology is a science that studies the artifacts of long-lost extraterrestrial civilizations. We need to find out more about who we're planning to send a message to.
Tasks:
- The message is encoded and ready for sending. It will fly to the very edge of the galaxy, so we need to build a Signal Amplification Point to ensure we don't lose our connection to the capsule.

|
Rewards:
- Great! The capsule has been sent into space. As a reward, you receive experience and building materials.
Stage 7 - Distant Corner of the Galaxy[]
Since the 60s, scientists from the world over have listened to radio signals from space with the aim of detecting messages from interstellar civilizations. The time has come to take the first step ourselves!
Tasks:
- The message has almost reached the final point! We need to amplify the signal so the capsule doesn't go off course.
Build a Xenoarchaeology Academy Frame | ||
Accept a Signal Bandwidth Amplification contract
|
Rewards:
- Great work! As a reward, you receive experience and building materials.
Stage 8 - Unforeseen Difficulties[]
The capsule has gone off course and is heading for a black hole! We urgently need to correct its trajectory.
Tasks:
- Finish building the Xenoarchaeology Academy and correct your capsule's trajectory.

Rewards:
- Keep it up! You receive experience as a reward.
Stage 9 - Neurocryptography Module[]
The capsule has reached its target with our message! Now we need to prepare to receive a return signal.
Tasks:
- Establishing contact with an extraterrestrial civilization is no easy task. Keep it up, there's just a little left to do!
