I downloaded it since it was pretty short.  It's basically that game
in which you're trying to land on the moon with a speed under 3 ft per 
second.  You slow down by burning up your limited fuel, but if you
don't burn any fuel gravity pulls you faster and faster.

This version (by Joe Jaworski, I think) includes some Hi-Res graphics
that show your ship approaching the moon and a fuel gauge.
