The Cosmos contains a star-shaped foldout board, a quantity of plastic stars in various sizes, a deck of Moon Probe cards, a somewhat unusual set of five plastic planets (Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus) and 5 people figures in matching colors. Unfortunately, the one copy I have seen lacked instructions. So while it is possible to deduce the object of the game (acquire three "galaxies"), and while one can even tell how to acquire a "galaxy" (acquire stars for 5 constellations), there is no clue as to when or how to move the people and planets around the board.
