Playing to Learn about Space and Physics

Karl Kapp points out a MMOG in development designed to introduce players to basic physics education. Lunar Quest puts players on the “moon” and encourages them to work together making it suitable for human life. The University of Central Florida has a hand in the project, and it has funding from the National Science Foundation. It looks very promising.

I recently uncovered another game that was designed to teach youngsters about space. MoonBaseOne is a free to download sci-fi adventure game originally created as a summer camp teaching tool. It was released last year. Development details are kept here.
