Galaxy Game是1971年9月安装在斯坦福大学Tresidder Union的第一台商用电子游戏机。1该机器搭载PDP-11/20计算机，配备8K字节核心存储和HP 1300A静电X-Y显示器。1Galaxy Game从1971年运行至1979年，直到显示处理器故障才停运。1
1997年，Bill Pitts和Panofsky曾成功重启过这台机器。1中间电子计算机博物馆目前正在对这台古董游戏机进行新一轮修复工作。1修复团队包括Bill Pitts、Josh Dersch和Robert Schmuck，他们的工作重点是重建电源系统和翻新显示器。1HP 1300A显示器采用20 kV静电偏转管，经过50多年的岁月，其图像已经变得暗淡失焦，修复目标是恢复原有的清晰明亮的向量显示效果。1
The Interim Computer Museum is undertaking a new round of restoration work on Galaxy Game, the first commercial electronic video game machine, which was installed at Stanford University in September 1971 at Tresidder Union 1. The machine ran on a PDP-11/20 computer with 8K bytes of core memory and featured an HP 1300A electrostatic X-Y display 1. After operating from 1971 until 1979, when the display processor failed, the system remained inactive for years before being restarted in 1997 by Bill Pitts and Panofsky 1.
The restoration effort, led by Bill Pitts, Josh Dersch, and Robert Schmuck, aims to address deterioration caused by the machine's age 1. The HP 1300A display, which employed a 20 kV electrostatic deflection tube, has become dim and out of focus over its fifty-year lifespan 1. The repair work includes reconstructing the power supply and refurbishing the display to restore its original sharp, bright vector graphics capability 1.
