After leaving the Escape pod wander to the right and walk inside the walkway to the right and behind. Stop near the first set of wiring and get wires, continue on and look at the Robot head in the next scene. 
Climb in eye to get to the next level, where there is the Pod from 2001, and an escape ship. Climb back up the ladder and back down the tunnel. Move to the right past the jupiter 2, to the scrap metal conveyer and walk into the elevator. Stand in the bucket and when tipped onto the conveyer belt, stand, jump onto the rail. Walk along the rail to the left of the screen until you find the overhead claw. Climb down and push the control arrows forward. Above the scene where the escape pod was, press button to lower the claw.

Go to the ladder, climb up and go back to the tunnel to the escape ship, your goods will be stolen by a rat, so go back up the conveyer and the rail into the rats lair and get the power generator back, when you have climbed the ladder, get ladder and
you will then be able to climb onto the top of the escape ship.

Go back through the tunnel and the eye of the robot to the ship, put the ladder against the ship and climb on top. Open the top hatch and get inside. Look at the computer console. Insert the power unit into the floor and use the spare wire. Climb in into the pilots seat. Look at the computer.

Turn on the radar start the engines and wait to hover in position, select the weapons and fire a blast, this should make a hole in the side of the ship and suck you out.

Check the navigation computer and look for habitable planets.

Go to the monolith burger palace for a laugh and look around, but like everything you will need money to buy a burger.

Go back to your ship and set course for the planet in the left of the screen. Upon landing head for the giant robot. There you will find a smooth talking salesman who will buy your crystal. Purchase the thermal underwear, orat on a stick, and anything else ,look and read the postcards for a laugh.  

Now it is time for the terminator to appear, after the usual threats, you will be set free, lead the terminator up the elevator of the monster to the top of the robot. Stand by the pulley and get ready to throw the pulley at the terminator when he passes, this should put the terminator into the gears on the robot and destroy him. Take  the invisibility belt from the floor. Get back to the ship and set course for the monolith.

Buy a combination box and get the secret decoder ring from inside the box. Go over to the astro chicken machine and start playing. It will take a while to get the hang of it (there are no save games), but after you land the chicken enough time a secret message will appear, Decode message will give you the decoding letters but you will have to decode the message yourself.

Go back into you ship and set course for the planet in the lower right of the quandrant. When there put on the thermal underwear and get out of the ship. Go to the left and down, cross the crevasse and hide behind the rocks when you see the survey team, 
if you walk behind the rock you can see the crews fighter ship.
After some time the crew will go into the ship and take off,
go to the survey equipment and look at the pole, get the pole,
go to the case and get a impact detonator. Look in the telescope and you will see the protective shield generator.
Go to the right and up the mountain into the generator plant, climb the red ladder to the top of the shield generator, walk to the edge and drop the impact grenade. This should destroy the generator, head back down and you should find the crevasse is also lost, use the pole to pole vault across the void (pretty good eh).
