e’re still reeling. We had an inkling last issue
was going to be popular, but nothing prepared
us for the overwhelming response it received.
#40 stock was snapped up in minutes online and was
sold out in most stores around the UK within hours.
We had such a massive influx of subscribers, we even
had to reprint the magazine just to keep up. At the time
of writing, we’ve still got a few subscription copies left,
so if you’re yet to grab one, see pages 26-27 for details.
You can elect to receive #40 as your first issue, but only
while stocks last.
Which now brings us to this issue. The difficult
second album. How do you top the first magazine issue
in history to give away a free computer on its cover?
It turns out you can’t. So we’re just going to carry on
where we left off. On #40’s cover we said you could use
#PiZero to learn to code while playing
Minecraft,
and
this month we’re proving it.
In our Minecraft Mashups cover feature (starting on
page 16) we’ve cherry-picked some of our favourite
recent ideas and experiments, some of which cross the
divide between
Minecraft’s
virtual world and our own.
Make Steve move with a wave of your hand, create
amazing music and visual effects, and even have your
virtual avatar take control of your electronic devices.
To celebrate the successful arrival of ESA astronaut
Tim Peake to the International Space Station, we’ve also
got another ten pages of amazing projects and games
you can make with the Sense HAT, the same hardware
in the Astro Pi flight units Tim will be using over his
next six months on the ISS. You can keep up with
everything happening in orbit at
astro-pi.org.
