With coding missions to complete while in orbit around the Moon, children will learn the basics of coding in a fun and engaging way. The second Minecraft Education world is a thrilling experience for students as they embark on a journey to the Moon aboard the Orion space capsule. ![]() By taking part in this Minecraft Education mission, children will be able to develop a range of important skills, such as teamwork, communication, and collaboration.Īrtemis rocket on launch pad in Minecraft Education Artemis: Return to the Moon This helps students to better understand the complex science behind rocketry and to develop a deeper appreciation for the amazing work being done by NASA and other space agencies. The first Minecraft Education mission focuses on the Artemis rocket, with students exploring and building their own. As they immerse themselves in these missions, students will learn all about Newton's Three Laws of Motion and get hands-on with rocket science as they design their own moon rocket and test their creation with a thrilling launch from Cape Canaveral! Artemis: Rocket build Along the way they will meet the scientists and engineers who make space missions possible and tour their blocky labs. In this series of STEM-themed Minecraft worlds, students explore the fascinating world of space and discover what it takes to become an astronaut. Moon bases will play a crucial role in future missions to the Moon, serving as a starting point for further exploration and as a test bed for developing technologies that will eventually allow us to live and work on the Moon. More recently, NASA has been focused on the Artemis program, which aims to send the first woman and next man to the Moon. NASA has a long history of moon landings, starting with the Apollo missions in the late 1960s and early 1970s. With the use of Minecraft, educators and scientists can engage students with virtual, hands-on experiences exploring rockets, learning about space science, and discovering the challenges of living on the Moon. Given the educational benefits of Minecraft Education, it made sense to partner with NASA and bring the Artemis missions to life. In the classroom, Minecraft complements traditional subjects like reading, writing, math, science, and history, and offers more than 200 hours of standards-based STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) content, including a K-12 Computer Science progression and in-game coding and chemistry features. ![]() Minecraft Education is a platform that enhances creativity, problem-solving, self-direction, collaboration, and other life skills. Help students make history with the groundbreaking Artemis Mission, taking on the seemingly impossible goal of reaching the Moon and creating a survivable base for research and habitation to launch the next era of space exploration. To celebrate this historic event, Minecraft Education is partnering with NASA and the Challenge Center to bring the incredible and captivating Artemis Mission worlds into Minecraft. Then, they will use what is learned about the Moon to take the next giant leap sending the first astronauts to Mars! Did you know we’re going back to the Moon? With Artemis missions, NASA will land the first woman and first person of color on the Moon using innovative technology to explore more of the lunar surface than ever before! After collaborating with partners, NASA will establish the first long-term presence on the Moon. ![]()
