NASA MMO

Yes, it's actually real. Well, almost - NASA's announced it, but there's a lot to be done in between deciding to make an MMO and it's eventual completion, and we all know how reliable NASA can be following up on projects...



So I've stayed as far away from World Of Warcraft as humanly possible, more or less, not to mention all the dozens of other semi-successful MMORPGs released in the last several years, as I've no to desire to pay my way into some horrible clique of teenage freaks amped on Bawlz and Riddlin for several hours per day, or week, or ever (though EVE Online looks awfully tempting...). But THIS! This is outrageous. I would pay whatever asked to play this monthly, as long as they make sure the gameplay is solid. To be honest, I'm worried they'll focus too much on it being an educational project and dumb it down for kids, but who knows, it might end up being a pleasurably complex and realistic simulation of space exploration (yes!!).
