3… 2… 1… We Have Ignition - The NASA Space Apps Challenge will have the first lift off from Lebanon!
Are you ready to be part of the first hackathon in Lebanon? Your ideas can be springboards for innovative solutions to problematic scientific complications. Let us bring great Lebanese minds together to find our inspired outstanding solutions and share them with the whole world.
You can now join the largest space & science hackathon in the solar system that NASA organizes as the International Space Apps Challenge. It is the first time that Lebanon hosts Space Apps, so let us show the world our scientific talents.
WHAT IS SPACE APPS?
The NASA International Space Apps Challenge (Space Apps) is an international hackathon for coders, scientists, designers, storytellers, makers, builders, technologists, and others in cities around the world, where teams engage the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA’s) free and open data to address real-world problems on Earth and in space.
For one weekend each October, participants from around the world come together over a 48-hour period to solve challenges submitted by NASA personnel. After the hackathon, project submissions are judged by space agency experts and winners are selected for one of 10 Global Awards.
Space Apps introduces problem-solvers worldwide to NASA’s free and open data. By using NASA data to solve each year’s challenges, Space Apps teams learn about NASA’s data, and share in the creation and application of the knowledge that results.
Space Apps also inspires collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking. Our mission is to leverage this interest to encourage the growth and diversity of the next generation of scientists, technologists, designers, storytellers, and engineers.
Space Apps gives you the opportunity to bring projects to life for a wide range of applications. We are looking forward to seeing what innovative, creative ideas you bring to the community this year.
Everyone can partake in the event, totally free. Be part of the future and register now!
