What Is Space Apps?
Now in its 9th year, NASA’s International Space Apps Challenge is an international hackathon for coders, scientists, designers, storytellers, makers, builders, technologists, and others in cities around the world, where teams engage with NASA’s free and open data to address real-world problems on Earth and in space.
The event embraces collaborative problem solving with a goal of producing open-source solutions to challenges we currently face on Earth and in space.
Hackathon is open to anyone, and are focused on developing real solutions to global challenges by the end of the event.
When is Space Apps 2020?
NASA International Space Apps Challenge will take place over a 48-hour period in cities around the globe on October 2-4. It will be an all-virtual event.
Registrations are OPEN, please register then to receive additional information.
In the weeks prior to the hackathon, you will be invited to connect with your Local Lead and other participants in our online chat channels as well as start forming teams. You will also have access to the workshops and training that will be offered as part of our Virtual Bootcamp.
All participants will be invited to attend a global opening ceremony on October 2, which will be streamed on YouTube.
Our global community is at the heart of Space Apps. We look forward to taking this journey again with you this year, from the comfort of home.
