Thanks to Minecraft Education Edition, so many new things are possible. It takes the existing game, which is admittedly huge and filled with possibilities, and expands on it. Education Edition has made an incredible addition to Mojang's library.
One of the coolest parts of Minecraft Education Edition is the chemistry component. Thanks to it, elements, compounds, and related items are in the game. One fantastic item that is only possible through chemistry is a balloon.
Attaching balloons to things will make them or the balloon float as far into the air as possible. Helium is a critical component of balloons and is the biggest reason they fly into the air.
It can keep flying endlessly if it's not attached to the ground, as one Minecraft Redditor hilariously discovered.
Minecraft player sends panda flying into orbit with balloon
Making balloons is pretty simple. Latex is made with the compound creator. In it, players need to put five carbon and eight hydrogen to make one latex. This is an Education Edition feature, so it is exclusive to that and Bedrock users who have educational features toggled on.
Two different recipes use latex, but they both only make balloons. The first recipe is:
- Latex (6)
- Matching dye (1)
- Helium (1)
- Lead (1)
The second recipe is for a white, brown, blue, or black balloon:
- Latex (6)
- Lapis Lazuli, Cocoa Beans, Bonemeal, or Ink Sac (1) for color
- Helium (1)
- Lead (1)
When attaching a balloon to a mob, it flies away. In this case, a Minecraft Redditor sent a panda into orbit with the click of one button.
The panda began slowly floating into the air, which is when hilarity ensued. Pandas are known for one behavioral activity in Minecraft: rolling. They roll to move around quickly, which is the opposite of their normal speed.
The panda began rolling through the air as it gradually went higher. It continued doing so until it became just a speck on the horizon. It's to be expected with a balloon full of helium, but that doesn't change how funny it was.
The community seems to agree with that statement. The comments are filled with positivity and jokes. One commenter was truly taken aback by the panda's decision to spin mid-air.
Another envisions great memes that could be made with the video.
Several other songs could make perfect background noise for this spinning, flying panda.
Many other mobs probably wondered, what was that panda doing up there?
Another compared it to another wildly popular franchise: Pokemon.
It's not see you later, it's goodbye.
Eventually, that panda would have passed the moon, the stars, and all the other planets.
Education Edition is a wonderful mode that deserves a lot more time in the limelight. Many commenters weren't even aware that there were balloons in the game.
Overall, the community loves the post, giving it nearly five thousand upvotes in one day of being up.
