As there are a lot of children who are deprived of NASA’s space sciences because they are in poor countries or they are not well educated, so we took it upon ourselves in our team to support these kids BY gather creative writers FOR THIS GOAL, WITH editING NASA data in the form of easy literary stories that children benefit from and enhance the concepts of.

Space Agency Data


NASA data through its browser and the stories that I mentioned in the aspect devoted to science, the solar system, and planets, inspired us to write stories and look at this information and data from a literary side, and the articles written for children in the students’ section helped us convert them into stories. The most important data that inspired us: Introducing planets and the system Solar, space missions, articles about working with NASA, NASA discoveries on Mars,

During the hackathon trip, we learned that big projects only need focus and careful work. Our team loves challenges. Every individual has a unique experience in the field of work. Therefore, it was nice to meet at the service of the child through literary fiction writing and transferring NASA's knowledge to it. Our approach to developing this project is according to the progress of A written plan and we are working on it, and our team overcame difficulties by dividing missions and cooperation, and our experience is an important point in the future of working with NASA.
