The need for satellites on our planet

High-Level Project Summary

we initially we developed a blog and added data from some of the most famous apps which only exist thanks to satellites. With it, we were able to show the importance and some of the benefits of satellites for society and that it is crucial for human development and that we are dependent on them, as without them, many of our privileges (such as wireless internet, location) depend on it, without the need for the person to have knowledge about satellites, and we were also able to combat the false news about them, as unfortunately many people still believe that the videos, images and information sent from satellites are falsified, and this favors the spread of pseudoscience and scientific denial

Detailed Project Description

We, in the future, intend to create our own website, with much more data, information and functions, such as the location of satellites with the information that it transmits. And in the future, create an application, with translations into several languages ​​(including pounds) so that the information can reach anyone who is interested, without excluding anyone, and with this make it even easier for people to access this information. We also intend to include in-person lectures in our project, to bring information to people who do not have internet access.

The information on the websites helped us get a better view of what we needed to do, all the information was very helpful and helpful, it was inspiration for new ideas, we learned new things that we are going to take for life.

Hackathon Journey

I describe my experience as unique and amazing, it was a great opportunity to participate in Space Apps, I learned new things, met new people, it's an unforgettable experience, it was 2 days of a lot of learning and determination. Our approach was to create an article talking about satellites and a blog (which will possibly have a long and innovative future) We chose this challenge because it is very present in our daily lives, and we decided to talk about its importance We solve all setbacks and challenges together, always helping each other, clearing each other's doubts, with good conversations.
