High-Level Project Summary
Space is practically infinite, yet it's possible to measure the Observable Universe where we try to resolve the Diversity & Equity issues that have plagued the Space Agency for decades. My project is based on Make S.P.A.C.E. ---- > "SOLVE the POSSIBILITY to ACCESS COLLABORATION of diversity & EQUITY" based on THE ART IN OUR WORLDS._____ I developed innovative idea of providing (real & virtual) knowledge & resources based opportunities._____ Solution includes different activities/ external reviews based on SDG._____ A major goal for the Astronomy & Astrophysics Communities, to support and increase Diversity &7 Equity for inclusion in Space fields over the coming decade.

Detailed Project Description
Machine Learning is one of the 'Newest Sciences'---while astronomy - one of the oldest.
My project is an application/innovative means by using ML/AI techniques in Space Exploration to resolve Diversity & Equity and displays the results in a creative/artistic way.
- An AI assistant called Cimon was flown to the international space station (ISS) in December 2019, where it is being tested for three years. Eventually, Cimon will be used to reduce astronauts’ stress by performing tasks they ask it to do. NASA is also developing a companion for astronauts aboard the ISS, called Robonaut, which will work alongside the astronauts or take on tasks that are too risky for them.
- There’s SpaceX, which hopes to take passengers into low Earth orbit on its Crew Dragon capsule; Blue Origin, which is auctioning off a single spot on the first flight of its New Shepard rocket and capsule; and Space Adventures, which offers private spaceflight experiences, including trips to the International Space Station, and to the moon and back. .
- Research in astronomy generates large amounts of data. For example, once up and running, the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) is expected to create over 15 terabytes of astronomical data each night from its images of the night sky. [LSST (Large Synoptic Survey Telescope). See https://www.lsst.org/ (accessed 22 March 2017)] In analyzing this data, a key challenge for astronomy is to detect interesting features or signals from the noise and to assign these to the correct category or phenomenon.
Solutions:
1. Space & Satellite Professionals International (SSPI) talked about why space needs to put DIVERSITY & EQUITY in front and center.
- 2. As we develop the next generation of world-changing innovations, from autonomous flight to sending humans to Mars, our industry must build on our work to include diverse voices and perspectives – at the idea phase, in the board room, and everywhere in between.
- 3. Unveiled a “Diversity in STEM” calendar digital calendar for the 2020-2021 school year and provided it to nearly 450,000 K-5 educators, in both English and Spanish.
- 4. Harmonisation is a voluntary process, based on transparency and exchange of information. Continuous support from all participants, including delegations, industry, universities and research institutes. https://edgeforscholars.org/space-for-conversation-diversity-inclusion-equity-in-academics/
- 5. Encouraging Diversity and Inclusion. AURA, as a leader in the astronomical community, develops and supports programs that advance our organizational commitment to diversity, broadens …

Hackathon Journey
- My Space Apps Challenge 2022 is highly exotic, empowering, experiential, environmental SDG.
- I have a wide knowledge of STEM , NASA , ATL ,Research oriented accolades, credentials, certificates.....
- Approach to difficult and tough facts/topics/themes are always a challenge for experience which makes learning a fun-filled examples .
- To developing this project we had to prepare a mind map for better analysis.
- To resolve setbacks it's really too hectic to compile step wise.
- I must thank NASA....being an active participant in all virtual activities/events ....truly obliged forever.
