SpexWorlds! Lunar enables you to bring the Moon into the classroom by designing and walking around your very own Lunar Base on the computer. There are buildings to be constructed of Lunar Pods, purpose built Lunar Vehicles and the famous Eagle Lander from the 1969 Moon Landing and much more. Take a look at Earth from the Moon, see Jupiter through the atmosphere of Io. Changing the colour of the atmosphere gives a good impression of how fictional worlds like Vulcan and Krypton might look. SpexWorlds! Lunar is perfect for adding excitement and zest to any project about Space and Astronomy.

What teachers have said about SpexWorld! programs.

 

 

 

"There is massive learning potential with SpexWorlds!"

 

 

 

"As they discovered the 3D placing, rotation and walkthroughs they just got more excited. At the end of the session they were beginning to work quite confidently and did not want to move on to their next lesson – nice, short learning curve."

 

 

 

"Sounds a cliché but I wish that you could have seen

the class’s reaction. An absolute buzz!"
