Space Invaders (スペースインベーダー, Supēsu Inbēdā) is an arcade video game developed by Tomohiro Nishikado and released in 1978. It was originally manufactured and sold by Taito in Japan, and was later licensed for production in the United States by the Midway division of Bally. Space Invaders is one of the earliest shooting games and the aim is to defeat waves of aliens with a laser cannon to earn as many points as possible. In designing the game, Nishikado drew inspiration from popular media: Breakout, The War of the Worlds, and Star Wars. To complete it, he had to design custom hardware and development tools.
It was one of the forerunners of modern video gaming and helped expand the video game industry from a novelty to a global industry (see golden age of video arcade games). When first released, Space Invaders was very successful.
The game has been the inspiration for other video games, re-released on numerous platforms, and led to several sequels. The 1980 Atari 2600 version quadrupled the system's sales and became the first "killer app" for video game consoles. Space Invaders has been referenced and parodied in multiple television shows, and been a part of several video game and cultural exhibitions. The pixelated enemy alien has become a pop culture icon, often used as a synecdoche representing video games as a whole.
Space is the boundless three-dimensional extent in which objects and events have relative position and direction. Physical space is often conceived in three linear dimensions, although modern physicists usually consider it, with time, to be part of a boundless four-dimensional continuum known as spacetime. The concept of space is considered to be of fundamental importance to an understanding of the physical universe. However, disagreement continues between philosophers over whether it is itself an entity, a relationship between entities, or part of a conceptual framework.
Invader, Invaders, The Invader or The Invaders may refer to:
An arcade game or coin-op is a coin-operated entertainment machine typically installed in public businesses such as restaurants, bars and amusement arcades. Most arcade games are video games, pinball machines, electro-mechanical games, redemption games or merchandisers.
While exact dates are debated, the golden age of arcade video games is usually defined as a period beginning sometime in the late 1970s and ending sometime in the mid-1980s. Excluding a brief resurgence in the early 1990s, the arcade industry subsequently declined in the Western hemisphere as competing home-based video game consoles increased in capability and decreased in cost.
The term "arcade game" is also used to refer to an action video game that was designed to play similarly to an arcade game with frantic, addictive gameplay. The focus of arcade action games is on the user's reflexes, and the games usually feature very little puzzle-solving, complex thinking, or strategy skills. Games with complex thinking are called strategy video games or puzzle video games.

http://www.longplays.org Played by: Mad-Matt It's ....Space invaders. This version appeared on just about every current system at the time and in fact I already recorded Gameboy Advanced version that this can be compared with. I only recorded Expert mode this time which allows a full run of the game. Completing this mode unlocks classic space invaders and maniac mode. In Maniac mode, the game is speed up, everything is faster exept your special weapon. I showed this mode on gba, and didn't see the need to show it again as it doesn't show anything new. I do like how the ending to this game kinda sets up a sequel, or is some way of saying why you need to replay the game. At 01:07:20 I do show off classic mode this time around, although its not all that special and compares well wit...

A new space race is underway - driven by private enterprise, companies are competing to build extensive satellite networks. But what are the implications of this new era of privatised space exploration? A report by ABC Foreign Correspondent. Subscribe to Journeyman here: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=journeymanpictures "We’re looking at quadrupling, quintupling the number of satellites in orbit over the next few years", Micah Walter-Range of the Space Foundation explains. Unlike in previous decades, these launches are largely undertaken by companies for commercial reasons. Planet is a US-based company exploiting new technology to launch waves of new satellites - and for much cheaper than was ever thought possible. "We have figured out how to miniaturise satellites", ...
