According to ESA: The Space Game is a game and a crowdsourcing experiment run by the Advanced Concepts Team of the European Space Agency aimed to improve the methods for designing interplanetary trajectories. We do not claim that computers are not able or are particularly bad at solving such problems. Rather, we think that ‘watching’ humans design complex interplanetary trajectories can be of help to improve the intelligence of computer algorithms.”
