In Happy Home Paradise, this item is unlocked for use in designing when doing a vacation home request for Benedict, Biff, Cephalobot, Filbert, Kevin, Kid Cat, Kyle, Mira, Phil, Prince, Roswell, and Sterling. As a result, this item has a chance to be purchasable by the player if they were invited by any of the preceding villagers. This item appears as a furniture item in the homes of Cephalobot.
The item's light color can only be customized by Cyrus. When customizing the item's main monitor pattern, the player can use one of Sable's patterns or their own custom designs. The item's main monitor pattern can be customized either by using 10 customization kits or by Cyrus at Harv's Island for 8,000 Bells. The spaceship control panel can be obtained from either Nook's Cranny for 190,000 Bells or the Paradise Planning office for 171,000 Poki. The spaceship control panel is a customizable houseware furniture item in Animal Crossing: New Horizons introduced in the 2.0 Free Update.
