LunarCraft：月球上的 Minecraft 基岩！科學課服務生 10-14歲

Teacher Tom, your favorite Outschool Rocket Science, Space Tech, and Engineering Teacher is bringing you another “out of this world” fun and educational Minecraft class!

Welcome to The JAXA Minecraft Lunar World experience!

The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) created a game called Lunarcraft to play in Minecraft that employs actual satellite data to create realistic moon landscapes.

We will be using this world together, to explore what colonizing our moon in real life might be like, and working together to build & operate the moon colony, and explore more of the moon, discovering landers, rovers to drive, and other cool features!

LunarCraft is a lunar world planned and produced by the JAXA Space Education Center and appears in the world-famous metaverse game Minecraft. This is a game where you can play and learn about the moon and space in a lunar world that reflects the topography data of the moon obtained by JAXA's lunar orbiting satellite Kaguya.  One of the attractions that can only be experienced in this lunar world is playing with specially placed items such as the Rover, the vehicle used in the lunar world. In addition, you can enjoy Minecraft's unique expandability, such as racing on the moon with a rover, searching for rare minerals on the moon, and creating your own space under the moon.

Some missions we'll be jumping into include but are not limited to:
ٛMission 1 targets the basic for lunar base improvements of both laboratory and residential modules using logistics to plan the most efficient functioning lunar habitat for its residents.
ٛMission 2 is all about lunar agriculture and farm improvement in an effort to grow items like wheat and potatoes, as well as crops that can be utilized for biofuels.
Mission 3 is focused on the effective use of lava tubes, which can aid in keeping humans sheltered from cosmic rays and fluctuating temperatures of the moon.
Mission 4 lets players establish a resource mining base and machines to help locate and extract minerals and metals necessary for growth and operation of an outpost.
Mission 5 is for launch site development and concerns constructing and maintaining rocket launch facilities for spacecraft arrivals and departures, including roads and fueling depots.
Mission 6 is lunar heritage preservation and utilization and deals with keeping historically significant human objects and lunar relics safe for posterity and housed in a display museum. 
Mission 7 concentrates on building new and diverse housing options for an assortment of lunar dwellings and living spaces as the moon’s population grows.
Learners are required to come to class with Minecraft Bedrock installed and ready, so they are able to participate in the private world on the moon!
Gamertags will be privately shared with the teacher to enable access to the server. As required by Outschool, the server will not be accessible outside of class.

In 2007, a Japanese moon orbiter nicknamed Kaguya launched from Tanegashima Space Center with the goal of exploring the moon's ancient origin and evolution. Using info obtained from the spacecraft's survey mission, JAXA has reproduced the moon's geological environment in the Minecraft world.
Lunarcraft is set in Theophilus crater, which is located at the base of Mare Nectaris. This larger region includes the landing zone for SLIM ("Smart Lander Investigating the Moon"), which pulled off Japan's first-ever moon landing last year.
