Oh, Earth, my eternal home
Forgive me, I have to leave
Far away, Proxima Centauri is calling me
And a boundless frontier awaits my exploration
Only the Lagrange Gate connects us
The shinning twins in the Milky Way
—Terran Poem
The "Twin Festival" has its origins in the Great Navigation Era. Back then, the government of the Terran Sphere organized a large exploration fleet from Earth to Proxima b, a planet 4 light-years away. It took them 60 years to finally arrive and hence began the arduous and long process of exploration and construction. This was the first contact between the Terran Sphere and Proxima.
Hundreds of years later, a fleet from the Proxima b Space Station returned to Earth, showing the interim results of the Proxima Centauri Development Plan and debunking conspiracy theories that had pervaded the Earth community about it, proving the skeptics wrong. As a significant milestone in human spaceflight history, the four-light-year return voyage substantially changed the Earth community's attitude toward space development outside the Solar System and greatly facilitated the sentiment of outward development. The concept of the Earth/Centauri Twinning was then brought forward for the first time.
With the construction of the L001A and L001B bi-directional gates, Earth-Proxima is more than a concept but a real economic entity, and the Twin Festival was officially established. It took thousands of years from the introduction of the concept to the establishment of a major festival that is still celebrated today.

2. Gravity Detection Operation
◇It will simulate on the screen how probes collect gravity data on planets. You need to work out routes by operations to make probes you launch pass observation points.
◇The number of probes that you can launch varies at each stage, so does the location and the number of observation points.
◇During the event, a new stage will be unlocked each day. There are 13 stages in total.
