In a bold and innovative move, they collaborate NASA A place with survival and construction game Minecraft To provide an interactive educational experience based on real data from the James Webb Space Telescope, so get ready for a fun scientific journey through the universe, because NASA will make space exploration fun for everyone.
The James Webb Space Telescope Challenges were developed to inspire the next generation of scientists, engineers and technicians through Minecraft, students can immerse themselves in the science and technology behind the Webb Space Telescope, deepening their understanding of the mission NASA and promote their interest in. the practical application of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Bam Milroy:
“We’re excited to bring the wonders and science of NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope into the hands of the Artemis generation through this exciting collaboration with Minecraft.” “This collaboration is another way anyone can join NASA as we explore the mysteries of the universe and solve the world’s most complex problems, making space exploration engaging learning for all ages. “
Launched into space on December 25, 2021, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has continued to take a close look at planets within our solar system, studying the atmospheres of planets orbiting other stars. -outside our solar system, and capturing images and skies of the most distant galaxies. ever discovered.
And he said Mike DavisWebb project manager at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland:
“NASA’s collaboration with… Minecraft “Players will experience the thrill of one of the most advanced space missions of all time.”
“Wherever Webb looks, he sees something exciting, paving the way for amazing discoveries yet to come. “We hope they will be inspired to take this interest forward and maybe one day help NASA build future space telescopes.”
Webb is the world’s leading space science observatory, a space telescope that unlocks the mysteries of our solar system, looks beyond to distant worlds around other stars, and explores the mysterious structures and origins of our universe. -cè and our place in it. WEB is an international program led by NASA with its partners, the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Canadian Space Agency (CSA).
NASA’s STEM Liaison Office provides unique opportunities for students to learn more about science, technology, engineering and mathematics. In 2023, NASA teamed up with Minecraft for the Artemis Challenge where users can build and launch a rocket, pilot the Orion spacecraft, and even create a moon base with their team.
By collaborating with partners like Microsoft, NASA can share the joy of space exploration with more students who are part of the Artemis generation.
