High-Level Project Summary
We created an application where people can sign in and upload their console log information. Each user has a different role that ranges from being able to edit and create logs and just being able to visualize and print the logs. This way, all the users contribute in a different way to achieve a shared network of console logs. We think our app is important because it is an excellent forum where people can contribute since it invites anyone who's interested in the analysis of the data we collect.

Detailed Project Description
We created this application to analyze the different data collected from the NASA users that upload their consola data. We decided to separate the users inside the app into 2 categories to have a better management of the collected entries. The first user category would be the collaborator, who creates, writes and comments on the submitted entries. Next in line would be the viewer users who can read or print the entries. Within the app we can compare different documents with a significant amount of data. This way we would be able to compare each entry and ask a data scientist for help to visualize the data in a much easier way to comprehend. We hope that this application will help all kinds of users interested in science since we think it's important to promote this type of topic to motivate more people into getting involved. Sometimes, they don't do it because of the fear of not understanding or getting tired of never being able to achieve what they want, that's the reason we want to provide this tool to all users to make it easy for them to understand. To create the app we used the visual basic programming language in the visual studio IDE.
Space Agency Data
We decided to use the following data obtained since it has a huge amount and are separated by years so that we can compare examples to users so that they can enter the data.

Hackathon Journey
We chose this challenge because we believe that distributing data and analyzing them with different people could help us to improve and grow as a community. Sharing information is one of the most important things in the scientific field, as you can compare ideas, points of view, and make new discoveries together.
As a team,we managed to work very well together and accomplish our goals, we worked simultaneously without problems. We managed to brainstorm different ideas that helped us satisfy what we wanted to achieve and maintain an established idea.
We learned from the areas in which we are good, which are project management, data scientist, programmers, design, among other skills.
Our challenges were the databases, because we didn't have that much general knowledge about it. But we were able to investigate and finish it and we managed to fill out the required form.
The approach we had when developing this project was to first choose an idea and then use our different skills to create it.
We want to have an application where you can see in real time what our colleagues in space are collecting. Keeping track of who they are, when they do it and how they do it. The scientific community in general may interact with the publications only to add relevant information. All this will help to have a broader vision of what happens up there. Once the information is public, although there are risks in how it is used, we also understand that humans will have more opportunities to understand our environment for the common good.
