Hello, Space Apps Boston community!

Space Apps Boston 2020 will be coming to you on October 3-4. This year Binnovative will be hosting virtual hackathon.

In light of the COVID-19 pandemic and in the interest of our global community’s health and safety, this year’s hackathon will be an all-virtual event. In other words, all local events will be moved online. Our theme for this year’s event -- "Take Action" -- is a critical reminder that you can make a difference, even from the comfort and safety of home.

NASA INTERNATIONAL SPACE APPS CHALLENGE IN BOSTON

2020 is the7th time that NASA ISAC is held in Boston. This year everyone attend virtally. To participate, you can form your own teams among your friends. Please make sure that all of your team members register. The event provides opportunity for everyone to improve your coding skills, get involved in Boston’s hackathon community, cultivate team collaboration skills, and… to have a blast with your teammates!!

We are in an unprecedented situation this year with the event being fully remote. In order for you to remember this hackathon, we will provide a special ISAC Boston original memento for all participants who successfully submit a solution to the ISAC Boston event and have a shipping address in the conterminous United States. The team is hard at work designing this memento for you.
