In your journey, you’ll be able to find power-ups, like ‘Double points’ and ‘Slow down’, which can be activated by finding gems, and their duration can be extended by correctly answering a question.

Eclipses and Seasons

The changing seasons and breathtaking eclipses are a result of the Earth’s tilt and its movements through space. Earth’s axis is tilted relative to its orbit around the Sun, causing different parts of the planet to receive varying amounts of sunlight throughout the year, creating seasons. Solar eclipses occur when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, temporarily blocking sunlight, while lunar eclipses happen when the Earth casts a shadow on the Moon. Depending on the alignment of the Earth, Moon, and Sun, these eclipses can be total, partial, or penumbral, offering awe-inspiring natural phenomena visible from specific locations on Earth.
