High-Level Project Summary
Our project was to promote the creation of origami based on the panels of the telescope with every panel having a diferrent drawing or painting by artists based on what they think they will see once the telescope is online, this would solve the problemativ since it would spread the art and make people be interested in the telescope, which we believeis an impotant task, beacuse of the infinite amount of posibilities it brings to our vision and understanding of the universe

Detailed Project Description
Our project is based on social media, in platforms like instagram since its photo scentric, and its an invitacion to create the origami model, which is made with 18 origami hexagons combined in the shape of the panels, the benefits it has are that the origami is easy to make, opening the experience for a wide range of people around the globe, and also the fact that its a way of exposure for NASA in afortable way, and one that is creative at that, and what we would see as our goal is to go trending in social media with the creations of people interested, taking the information and curiosity to a high amount of people.
Space Agency Data
The data we used was barely for research purposes since our challenge was focused in an approach to bring more people to the exiting world of space exploration.
Hackathon Journey
It was an interesting and very useful experience, we learned a lot about the telescope and its potencial, which was very exciting and made us even more interested in the topic, we chose this challenge because we thought it looked fun and interesting, and since it was our first hackathon, we thought it looked like and entry level challenge, in order to develop our porject, we researched and brainstormed about ways to spread the information and excitement we felt when we learned about it, the setbacks we faced were that we didint know exactly how to do the pitch and how to use all the time accordingly, but we believe that thnaks to these, we learned how they work for future participacion in other events, and to end this, we woud like to thank the mentors and theyre feedback.
