High-Level Project Summary
This study proposes an interactive and immersive method as well as a visualization tool called Virtual Reality Technology, and incorporating Astronautics as a mandatory subject in our education to increase public awareness of the numerous spacecraft exploring the Sun, including the Parker Solar Probe. My suggestion will assist the general public in comprehending how the vital data collected by these missions affects the way we live, work, and play. The recommended idea promotes user involvement, passion, and fresh exploration ideas in the future. The project also highlights current heliophysics projects like the Parker Solar Probe, and asking users to consider the future of solar exploration

In order to improve the public's understanding of many spacecrafts that explore the sun, including the Parker Solar Probe, I propose to make a space simulator similar to virtual reality (VR). I believe that in today’s society, the public is no longer sensitive to VR, and VR has even been popularized and integrated into our lives. The 6D guide in the google map clearly allows users to see all the buildings, even the smashing Pokémon. The go mobile game allows players to capture Pokémon anytime, anywhere. Through the various things in our daily lives, I believe everyone is no longer surprised by this technology. Based on my opinion, I think that we can develop VR headsets which are essentially just machines designed to replace our surroundings with something created in software. There are gyroscopic sensors, accelerators, and magnetometers in headsets to determine how you move and track your interactions with a virtual space (spacecraft).
Spacecraft are very precious and extremely rare things that appear in our lives. Because the production process is very difficult and the materials are expensive, it is even less likely to be brought into the market today by commercial organizations and become widely known by the public. I'm sure, the majority will not really understand or know what spacecraft is, and even they don't even know how a spacecraft look like. But through this instrument, users can better understand our spacecraft, the spacecraft manufacturing process, the materials needed in the manufacturing process, the time required to manufacture the spacecraft, the testing and debugging process, and even allow users to experience, control or tamper with the spacecraft by themselves. And his function. This method not only greatly improves the public’s understanding of many spacecrafts, but also helps the space agency to improve and obtain new insights that applicable during their development process. In addition, this is the lowest cost and investment to obtain more information for the public to understand spacecraft talent in convenient and easy way.
Space Agency Data
NASA
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration is an independent agency of the U.S. federal government responsible for the civilian space program, as well as aeronautics and space research. NASA was established in 1958, succeeding the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics.
Australian Space Agency
The Australian Space Agency is Australia's national agency responsible for the development of Australia's commercial space industry, coordinating domestic activities, identifying opportunities and facilitating international space engagement that include Australian stakeholders.
China National Space Administration
China National Space Administration is the national space agency of China responsible for the national space program and for planning and development of space activities
Malaysian Space Agency
The National Space Agency, abbreviated ANGKASA, was the national space agency of Malaysia. It was established in 2002 and its charter includes aims to upgrade, stimulate and foster the country's space programme through integrated and coordinated efforts by developing and applying space technologies.
A lot of information and data has been collected from the space agencies above in order to let me have a better understand on my project and help to purpose a lot of applicable solutions.
Hackathon Journey
It’s an awesome and memorable experience in my life, the very first time in a limited time, I quickly learned about the knowledge that I was not familiar with and the field that I had never been in contact with in brainstorm. I chose this challenge because I am very interested in understanding the spacecraft and even its entire production process including how to start it. I believe there will be many people who have the same idea as me but don’t know how to start, so I want to through this theme makes the official more aware of our eagerness to understand the idea of spacecraft and hope that astronautics can be popularized and be more recognized and understood by the public. I hope that more people will join me in searching for the miracles of the universe, and even see the launch site of the spacecraft with their own eyes. I hope that my country's aerospace industry will be prosperous and prosperous. In order to achieve this goal, we must discover more talents to help our country.
