This project is solving the Where on Earth challenge. Description
Meet Astrid, a smart bubbly astronaut, who needs your help as she flies her spaceship around our planet looking for new cities to land in and explore. Astrid needs guidance as she navigates toward different destinations all over the world. The game starts off when Astrid hops in her ship and the countdown begins…3…2…1…Blast Off! Once Astrid is in orbit, you are placed inside her cockpit looking back onto the earth. Out her window is the destination of a city (taken from satellite imagery); it is your job to successfully determine what city it is. You are given four different cities to choose from and must select the correct answer to land. Pick wrong and alarms go off. Hints are available if you need help selecting the city in which you are about to land. The hints include: the latitude and longitude of the location, the current climate conditions in that city, and the local time in that area. Once the correct city has been selected, Astrid makes a safe touchdown landing in that city. After Astrid has landed safely in that city, you can accompany her and explore the city by learning exciting and fun facts about that particular location (Population Data, History, Economy, Government, Politics, And much more!) After your city visit, it is time to blast off and do it again. If you are ready for another adventure, head back to the ship, buckle up and blastoff toward your next adventure with Astrid!
