NASA, the US space agency, has recently posted a challenge to attract developers to help build a Martian metaverse environment to aid in training.

NASA, the US space agency, has partnered with Epic Games, the company behind Fortnite, to build a challenge for developers to help create a Martian metaverse experience. The challenge will include various tasks, including designing several key environments for Martian astronauts, which will be rendered using Epic Games’ Unreal Engine 5 to provide a realistic environment. As you know python is one of the most popular programming languages in the world but is less widely used in the game development world. However, it’s a good starting point for new developers. So, when this partnership was announced many people had this question: Can Python help create the Martian metaverse that NASA is looking for? Let’s find out the answer.

NASA's challenge is to attract developers to help build a Martian metaverse environment to aid in training. The challenge, which was posted in Herox, a crowdsourcing problem-solving platform, calls for developers to aid the institution in building “Virtual Reality (XR) assets and scenarios for use by NASA in research focused on extravehicular activities on the surface of Mars.”
The challenge aims to populate an already-started metaverse world called MarsXR, which has now mapped 400 km2 of Mars terrain, with realistic day/night cycles, all modelled with Epic Games’ Unreal Engine 5, which will also be used by the developers to create the submissions in the challenge.
Python in the Metaverse

Python first came onto the software development scene around 30 years ago and is to this day widely used as a popular general-purpose coding language. Being an open-source language means that you have a vast global community of developers, enthusiasts, and corporations using and helping to further develop it, which means there is both plenties of support available and it is future-proofed.
