Starlite: Astronaut Academy (formerly Astronaut: Moon, Mars and Beyond) is an abandoned multiplayer online game developed by Project Whitecard Studios, Virtual Heroes, and WisdomTools Enterprises. The game was first announced in 2011 with backing from NASA, described as a "3D avatar community around a fictional depiction of the year 2035," where players would learn about real-life NASA missions and play through single-player and multi-player missions.
Sections of Starlite were eventually released as spin-offs, all receiving poor reviews from players. Virtual Heroes went on to develop and release Moonbase Alpha, a simulation game set on the Moon that received favorable reviews. Project Whitecard later published Star Rangers, a space exploration and construction game in Early Access on Steam, which is also abandoned.
