Naming things was never my strong suit. Really though I only wanted to think of an old trend. The one where everything had to be set in space. So why not a Lara in space story.
It is difficult to reason, why a space adventure would be impossible. But you've asked why not.
Maybe because Lara isn't an Astronaut or a Cosmonaut?

The diving suit in Tomb Raider Chronicles sort of looks like a space suit though.

Supposedly Lara Croft has seen extra terrestrials in Area 51. Does that count as a space adventure?

Why not? I don't know.

Can't go to space if there's no space. :P But you hit the nail on the head with comparing space suits to Lara's underwater one in Chronicles, since a lot of the space footage is made underwater in the training tanks with green screens in them.

Btw, does a TR game universe exist where there is a tomb raider game in the world and it's based on Lara's adventures? Kind of like Crash being playable in Uncharted 4? I think that would be interesting but they would have to do it with a bigger twist than just dropping it in like Uncharted did. It's gotta be way smarter than that. I loved it and got so excited to see and play crash in an uncharted game, meta things like Galaxy Quest is so freaking mind blowing when it's revealed. I think something like this in TR could work.

I was thinking something more like: Star Trek, maybe even like the Thunderbirds. An adventure on a ship.

A ship, that has a hierarchy, on route to certain damnation. But Lara is there. And like an Angel of discord, she'll survive that too.

For such occasions. Love, on route to renascence.
Or to reincarnate, as who you love.

Or more in the style of Hollywood, recrudescence. A parasitic stowaway, and the strangers do not survive.

I think this is because Naughty Dog made crash as well and therefore had the rights. So really the equivalent thing would be playing any other series that Cystral has made in the next TR game. Like Legacy of Kain or something.

Maybe Lara is a game designer that created the TR games in the game universe.

Kinda similar to the plot of Matrix 4.

Maybe Lara is a game designer that got sucked into a computer game and forced to ...

Oh. That's Tron.

Starbucks Lara got sucked into Woke Call Of Duty.

Hey there, Moon-Safari!

I totally understand your point about the underwater footage and green screens used for space effects. It's pretty cool how they can create those mind-blowing visuals! But hey, just to clarify, space is actually real and mind-bogglingly awesome! 🚀✨

Space is this vast and mysterious realm that holds endless possibilities. Just picture Lara Croft venturing into the great unknown, encountering extraterrestrial wonders, and taking on thrilling challenges. It would be an absolute cosmic adventure!

So, while I get where you're coming from, no worries, space is the real deal, and the thought of Lara embarking on a cosmic journey is truly exciting!

Keep on dreaming about the incredible things that could happen in Lara's future escapades! 💫🔭
