Currently I am trying to fill the map completely and use up ALL the natural resources and see how long the colony can survive. I am at 600 plus sols with 6K people and a huge amount of big domes LOL. But it will still be awhile.
Each game is different and you learn more about the game each time. You might want to try the CHALLENGES though as they do have endings. You either complete the challenge in the amount of time listed or you don't == you can try again if you like.
The SPHERES were a mystery and the mystery is different (or absent if you choose) every game. If you haven't solved the mystery yet, then that might be a finishing point for YOU.
Pick a point you think is a good stopping point and consider that end game.
As others have said, there is no win condition. You end the game whenever you want. There's lots of replay, however: different maps, different resource availability, different disaster levels, different sponsors, different mysteries.
The floating spheres is from the Spheres mystery. I'd guess you left that setting at random and got that one by chance. As far as I understand, you'll get different mysteries using the random setting without repeating until you've completed them all. Or, you can choose a specific one to play. So, the answer to your question that I quoted: no, not unless you choose to play the Spheres mystery again.
I think there's great replayability in upping the difficulty (> 1000%, sounds ludicrous, I know), changing sponsors, doing all the mysteries, and then the achievements.
Care to share your strategy? Without mods thats a pretty insane time to build a wonder by, I haven't done that challenge again since they redid the maps but I cannot think of anything super game breaking that could be on there to get it that fast.
Find all the key (tech reveal) anomalies by buying lots of probes and then restarting once you know where they are (probes are expensive). Also find all the science point anomalies but save at least 4 for the final tech. j1 has lab breakthrough and b4 has fusion power breakthrough.
At first get as many sexy as you can so you can get the founder stage over. You need to have a dome ready on sol 2 and I was done with the founder stage on sol 5. This means sol 4 is also deadline for refueling your first cargo rocket so you can have 2 ready to bring colonists when the founder stage is over. The apartment tech is #3 and needs to be done by that time as well.
Get some techs the normal way first then use all the keys in hope to reach one of the wonders. I scrapped one rocket for materials then had the remaining 2 constantly export rare earth metals and bringing back colonists (first) or more resources (later).
When you know which wonder you will get spend all of your money on buying the advanced materials. I also had two rc transports that I kept busy the entire time (rc transports are very valuable since they not only is your main source of metals, they can also help your drones. Never have them idle.) to get 400 metals since some wonders need it. On my first try I got project morpheus in 34 sols but I also made some big mistakes then, one of which was not focusing on finishing the founder stage asap. This time I got artificial sun in 19.
Abuse your citizen like crazy. I had 2 suicides in each of my attempts.
The physics wonder is I think the best since the resources are cheap and it's also tech #19 making it easier to reach than a #20 tech, and many physics techs are worth researching so you can give your anomalies more help reaching it without nerfing your city progress.

I'll have to retry sometime to match your score.
Fast to learn the mechanics then buddy :)
There are some mods I would recommend, I only use ones that don't affect gameplay, these are things like alerting me when outsourcing is complete, or showing the dust grids of all buildings during construction to make sure you don't build it them etc. Since they are only cosmetic I highly recommend them as it just streamlines gameplay.
Many people love the ones that add new buildings, for example a popular one is Silva's automated extractors. I think this is just like cheating to be honest, since it makes rare metals just too easy.
