Global Nominee
Born To Be In Space
High-Level Project Summary
Our team came up with the idea of creating an interactive information terminal. The goal is to be able to learn about the position of the satellite in real time, to learn about its operation and to be able to see the usefulness of the information given by these satellites. To do this we will use some information that the satellite transmits to NASA and use them to be able to feed our application and allow users to learn more about the sun.

Detailed Project Description
Through our research on the sun and the studies done on it we have discovered the extent of the fields, however despite a lot of documentation collected we have had difficulty finding the impacts of these studies on our daily lives. Having realized this difficulty and having been inspired by the missions of the 'Solar Orbiter' and 'Parker Solar Probe' satellites, we wanted to make the information more accessible on the impact of solar studies in order to more easily request the enthusiasm and awareness of all of their importance.
With the desire to make information readily available and understandable to everyone, the choice of an educational tool that can be found in cultural or educational places seemed appropriate.
To do this, we imagined a physical tool that would therefore be visible and would make people want to attract their curiosity, such as a terminal that can be installed and updated easily, while offering the possibility of offering an intuitive interface;

Hackathon Journey
With the intention of providing the most educational tool possible, the design and user experience is a priority objective. After having thought about it and having collected information on how to present space missions and the data they collect, we were able to focus and study the design of an interface that would be the easiest to promote curiosity and understanding for users.
With a defined design, we set about developing a prototype in order to think about a user experience that would bring us closer to our goal of inspiring users in this topic. Part of the team thus worked on the design (thanks to ‘proto.io) while the rest looked for information concerning the study assignments that could be offered on the terminal.
