Target Orbit on Moonshot Daily .org
Checked 2026-10-23.
Target Orbit is the second flight. One category, four calls. I copied the score table from the how-to page.
| Call result | Points |
|---|---|
| On the called orbit | 100 |
| One orbit off | 50 |
| Two orbits off | 20 |
Each call allows 35 seconds. The first 10 seconds keep the full score, then it fades to 60% on the last second. A direct hit boosts the next answer by 1.3. The current game code draws targets from five ordinary orbits: Low Orbit, High Orbit, Deep Space, Outer Rim and Uncharted. A Supernova answer is treated as the outermost rung for hit distance; it is not a sixth randomly called target. Lone Star's 110-point Supernova value does not replace Target Orbit's hit scoring.
Do not memorize a friend's four-word sequence: the target calls are personal to each player. Read dated .org answer examples for the category matching your game, Lone Star orbit rules, or finished records.

Questions people ask
Why did my friend get a different call?
The how-to page says the orbit for each call is assigned by the game and is not the same for every player.

The 21 October archive used Target Orbit for "Name a job". Teacher, Doctor, and Accountant led the top answers.
