SO Coach's comment addressing this game: "The more the kids get into it, the more competitive they get. At the same time they are learning more about the universe."

STELLAR JOURNEY: The Game was created in cooperation with the Chandra X-ray Center as an exciting, creative tool for students and adults to discover more about the fascinating world of stars.

STELLAR JOURNEY: The Game is also available through NASCO (click link)

STELLAR JOURNEY: The Game presents a simulation of star life from birth through death. Players proceed around the outer track collecting mass and time to apply to their stars. Three stars are born in the stellar nursery and proceed through each of their life stages until they meet their final destiny  -- a white dwarf, neutron star, or black hole! Questions have been written at four levels of ability, so the game may be used for B and C Division participants to prepare for the Stellar Evolution requirement in both the Reach for the Stars and Astronomy events.
