Get Ready for Today's Solar Eclipse with Minecraft and Fortnite

Today, April 8, a spectacular celestial event will take place. The sun, moon, and Earth will align perfectly to create a solar eclipse. However, not everyone will be able to witness this phenomenon due to geographic limitations, and direct observation can lead to permanent vision damage. That's where NASA, in partnership with leading video game companies, steps in.

Safe and Interactive Solar Eclipse Viewing

Teaming up with the National Esports Association, Microsoft, Epic Games, and Twitch streamers, NASA aims to provide an engaging and safe way to experience the eclipse. The solution? In-game events in both Minecraft and Fortnite. This unique approach ensures that anyone, anywhere can participate.

Dead By Daylight Developers Unveil a New Game

Meanwhile, the creators of Dead By Daylight have announced a new game - a thrilling combination of Fortnite and Doom. Stay tuned to our social media channels for more updates.

"Look Up!" Initiative

The "Look Up!" initiative is a collaborative effort by NASA, NEA, Microsoft, and Epic Games. The goal is to educate players about solar eclipses through a Twitch stream that highlights eclipse-themed Minecraft and Fortnite modes. The stream, featuring various streamers, will run from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. Eastern Time on NEA's Twitch channel.

What to Expect from the Minecraft and Fortnite Events

The Minecraft event will feature educational elements, with streamers solving puzzles and answering questions about eclipses on the moon. The Fortnite segment, on the other hand, will allow players to explore different areas accessible by moving through different parts of the eclipse's path of totality.

Protect Your Eyes, Opt for NASA Stream

Remember, looking directly at an eclipse can cause significant eye damage unless you're wearing eclipse glasses. If you can't find a pair in your local stores, the NASA stream is a safe alternative. Plus, it's educational!
