Starfield, which debuted last week and broke records in a short time, has also attracted the attention of NASA. In a post on the US space agency’s social media account, Starfield players were humorously targeted. NASA implicitly invited the players to apply for an internship.
NASA invites Starfield to internship program
The recent release of Starfield has taken players around the world on virtual space journeys. NASA wants to make sure that the fascination with Bethesda’s new game continues in the real world.
The US space agency thinks gamers could be inspired by Starfield to pursue a career at NASA. In a post targeting the Starfield community on its social media account, the agency drew attention to its new internship program.
The Instagram account created for NASA’s internship program shared a video that went viral. In the video, the statement “I’m watching you not apply for the NASA internship program after playing Starfield” was included.
He also said that NASA also has spaceships, crews, exoplanets and missions. The US agency’s amusing post quickly went viral, spreading the word about the 2024 summer internship program.
This unusual recruitment tactic received mixed reactions from Starfield players. While some laughed it off, others said Starfield was too much fun to be compared to real space exploration.
Starfield recently reached 6 million units sold. This made it the biggest Bethesda-produced game release ever. We should also mention that the game’s development and advertising budget is around 400 million dollars.
