Detailed Project Description
1. Acknowledge students about challenges faced by astronaut to reach mars.
2. Play games, quizzes, to get more points. The points will enable the avatar (astronaut) to keep alive.
3. Learning materials will be in story form, so that the key depth insights is easy for them to learn.
4. Benefits: the app does not need internet service to play and learn. Can use any time.
- Learning resources and materials are customized specially for students.
- Play games to keep avatar will be a virtual experience fr the users.
- Hope to archive: Future achieve, let the users(students) learn coding in meanwhile u sing this educational app.
- Students able to acknowledge about the space, astronauts, the mission to Mars.

Space Agency Data
We have gained some details from MALAYSIAN SPACE AGENCY (MYSA) .For example, we have gain information on latest researches done by MYSA on space travellers , spaceflight environment. We also have used data from NASA on research about MARS travelling
Hackathon Journey
It was very challenging and interesting to participate in these type of games. We have learned a lot about space environment, the efforts ,research conducted in astronomy field globally. The recent researches conducted on exploring to Mars has inspired us to explore this challenge .We use brainstorm technique to develop this project. We always try to do virtual meetings via online and share our inputs, research that we made. Finally, we would like to thank the organisers of this hackathon ,who gave us opportunity to learn about space.
The reason we chose this topic was, we were curious about the topic since it is related to Mars. This is because after the Moon, Mars become one of the most important planet where the astronaut were carrying out many researches such as water discovery and rocks that are chemically similar to volcanic rock. Moreover, we are keen when the challenge focused on middle schoolers. The youngsters must be educated about the life of astronaut in space, their basic needs, how the astronaut survive and many more. It will also build interest in the youngsters about the space.
Throughout the researches for the challenge, we learnt more about the astronaut and the space such as the oxygen level, their food intake, water intake, equipment they used to support them, communication, space suits, space flight, water recycling process and many more. This creates a very huge respect on astronauts.
