Something through NASA space grant, though that's a very broad statement. One way to go would be collaboration with an undergrad education major who could be supported through this program... but that's not going to help feed us programmers. =)

Is this a game that can honestly stand on its own is what we have to ask ourselves. It could be a really cool minigame in a larger game, but I'm not sure if what we have right now could actually be a game-game.

I'm thinking something like this, it's not a AAA title by any means, but educators might find it useful along with other NASA educational resources.
