Selene

Selene was a goddess in Greek mythology. Like the Roman
goddess Luna, pictured above, her
name means moon. It
could be derived from
the Greek word
“selas,” which means
“light.” Selene is the
root of “selenology,”
the study of the geology of the moon.

Join NASA in this exciting
research by playing our game. It
will take only an hour of your
time. Selene is designed as a
single player online game. The
game can be played by both
Windows users with Internet
Explorer 6 or Firefox web browsers and Macintosh users with
Safari or Firefox web browsers.
You will also need sound
(headset or speakers), Java
plug-in version 1.4, and Flash 7
player, which you can download
for free.

WE NEED YOU

You must be at least 13 years
old AND have your
parent/guardian’s permission to
participate. You must be sponsored by a Selene-approved
recruiter. Recruiters are adults
who will distribute a permission
slip (technically called an
informed consent document)
and speak with your parents
about the Selene research
project.
The Selene release is scheduled
for May 1. Once you complete
the study, you can return to the

Selene web site to play the
game as often as you like. If you
complete the entire study, we’ll
give you cool activities about the
moon to do alone or share with
friends and family. We have lots
of ideas for future games and for
building an online virtual community of Selene players who
share ideas about the game and
the moon. We hope you will join
us. Log on to your Selene web
site often to take advantage of
new opportunities.
Because this is a research study,
during May you must promise to
keep the details of the Selene
game and study a secret. You
must also promise NEVER to let
anyone else use your access
code, user name, or password.

INTERESTED IN PLAYING
THIS GAME?
All you need to do to get started
is to tell your adult recruiter you
want to play and then ask your
parent/guardian to let your
recruiter know you have their
permission. That’s it! Have fun
playing Selene!
