Introduction

Welcome to ATLAScraft, a map of CERN and the ATLAS detector created in the popular game Minecraft!

The ATLAScraft project is organised by researchers at the University of Oxford and the University of Birmingham, who guided a team of students from several schools in the United Kingdom in recreating parts of the ATLAS detector in Minecraft. The students' creations aim to creatively explain the workings of the ATLAS detector and particle physics research in a fun way, creating a virtual museum dedicated to the ATLAS experiment. Anyone owning the PC/MAC version of the game Minecraft will be able to download and visit the virtual world for free.
