High-Level Project Summary
The movement is a constant in the Universe, every Atom that exist right now Is in movement, but for this movement a enegery is requiered, all our universe needs a fuel source for that. Our proposal is a travel thru the universe to know the diferents fuel source that exist, since the development of new fuels on the earth, going to the center of the a very far planet to know how work its nucleo until see the nuclear fusion that produce the energy in our star, the Sun. This travel will be performed thru any movile dispositive with internet connection in an app.

Detailed Project Description
The Project
Our Idea is create an app, where you will be able to simulate a travel inside a spaceship, in this ship you are the captain and you decide where you want to go. So you can flight in our planet to know what are the most commom and newest fuel source that we has been develop. Then you can continue your travel doing a stop in our star, to know how the fusion nuclear produce energy for our solar system, continue your travel until a very far planet, going to center of this planet to know how works its nucleo.
Objetives
We expect create a space of knowlege that connect the young people with the diferents disciplines of the NASA that try to explain the movements in the universe and are working the development of innovative fuel sources for our daily basis and for the spacetravel too.
Metodology
For that we are collecting information from the NASA online sources about this topic and beside working in an app using a developer like Phonegap that use HTML5 and Javascript. This app should be able to do a virtual tour (with realistic animations) thru the universe (limited options) including our planet, in every station that is available, the guide travel will explain the topic.
Space Agency Data
Basicaly we use information and data of NASA website and cientifics journals to have information about the topic. This information still under revision to determinate what we are going to use in the project. We concider that our inspiration was the ocean Worlds, which is a example resource that we review to determinate what we are gona do.
Hackathon Journey
The Space app is a challenge itself, the limited time we have, it is a big problem, but additional, it is necessary to use our skills to work together, brainstorm to create a good idea, and then to solve the problems was the trick.
We learned a lot a thinks about the NASA, but also about de app development too. Every discipline that the NASA works are a great book of information that need to be unwrapped layer by layer.
We appreciate the support of our tutors in Panama, especially our teacher Ruben, who encouraged us during the development of this challenge.
