Space Apps also inspires collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking that fosters interest in Earth and space science and exploration. Its missions is to leverage this interest to encourage the growth and diversity of the next generation of scientists, technologists, designers, storytellers, and engineers.
NASA Space Apps Challenges introduces problem-solvers worldwide to NASA’s free and open data. NASA's missions to Earth, our Sun and solar system, and out into the universe all entail gathering data in the pursuit of new knowledge that expands our understanding through new scientific discoveries and help us improve life on Earth.
PERL through collaboration with IBSU encourages and invites PNG's talents to participate in NASA Space Apps Challenges.
