+# Help
+
+## Running the tests
+
+To run the tests, run the command `busted` from within the exercise directory.
+
+Refer to the [Installing Lua locally][install] documentation to get Lua and busted installed correctly.
+
+[install]: https://exercism.org/docs/tracks/lua/installation
+
+## Submitting your solution
+
+You can submit your solution using the `exercism submit space-age.lua` command.
+This command will upload your solution to the Exercism website and print the solution page's URL.
+
+It's possible to submit an incomplete solution which allows you to:
+
+- See how others have completed the exercise
+- Request help from a mentor
+
+## Need to get help?
+
+If you'd like help solving the exercise, check the following pages:
+
+- The [Lua track's documentation](https://exercism.org/docs/tracks/lua)
+- The [Lua track's programming category on the forum](https://forum.exercism.org/c/programming/lua)
+- [Exercism's programming category on the forum](https://forum.exercism.org/c/programming/5)
+- The [Frequently Asked Questions](https://exercism.org/docs/using/faqs)
+
+Should those resources not suffice, you could submit your (incomplete) solution to request mentoring.
+
+There are many great free online resources for Lua including:
+
+1. [lua.org][8]
+2. A highly recommended detailed and authoritative introduction to all aspects of Lua programming by Lua's chief architect: [Programming in Lua, by Roberto Ierusalimschy][6]. Note that the first edition (covering Lua 5.0) is [freely available online][9].
+3. For an official definition of the Lua language, consult the [Lua 5.4 Reference Manual][7], by R. Ierusalimschy, L. H. de Figueiredo, W. Celes.
+4. [Lua Style Guide][4]
+5. [Learn Lua in 15 minutes][5]
+6. Some options for linting
+    - [Lua Lint][10]
+    - [Lua Inspect][11]
+    - [luacheck][12]
+    - [Detecting Undefined Variables][13]

+# Space Age
+
+Welcome to Space Age on Exercism's Lua Track.
+If you need help running the tests or submitting your code, check out `HELP.md`.
+
+## Instructions
+
+Given an age in seconds, calculate how old someone would be on:
+
+- Mercury: orbital period 0.2408467 Earth years
+- Venus: orbital period 0.61519726 Earth years
+- Earth: orbital period 1.0 Earth years, 365.25 Earth days, or 31557600 seconds
+- Mars: orbital period 1.8808158 Earth years
+- Jupiter: orbital period 11.862615 Earth years
+- Saturn: orbital period 29.447498 Earth years
+- Uranus: orbital period 84.016846 Earth years
+- Neptune: orbital period 164.79132 Earth years
+
+So if you were told someone were 1,000,000,000 seconds old, you should
+be able to say that they're 31.69 Earth-years old.
+
+If you're wondering why Pluto didn't make the cut, go watch [this YouTube video][pluto-video].
+
+Note: The actual length of one complete orbit of the Earth around the sun is closer to 365.256 days (1 sidereal year).
+The Gregorian calendar has, on average, 365.2425 days.
+While not entirely accurate, 365.25 is the value used in this exercise.
+See [Year on Wikipedia][year] for more ways to measure a year.
