Science Hunters: Space missions in Minecraft

This new project, funded by a Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) Spark Award, will use the well-established Science Hunters approach to introduce children from under-represented groups to space exploration and engage them with learning about STFC facilities, using Minecraft.

An integral part of the project will involve working with STFC’s Rutherford Appleton Laboratory Space to link to their science, technology, facilities, people and careers.

The project is launching in November 2025; more information and resources will appear here as they become available.
