Awards & Nominations
Galactic has received the following awards and nominations. Way to go!
Global Nominee
Bringing space weather to life.
High-Level Project Summary
We developed a fully functional dashboard that displays space weather data in an easy-to-use and fun interface. The public interest in space weather is increasing.Some want to know about CMEs and solar flares, some want to run models, and some want to tune their solar panels. It's time that these people will have an intuitive and reliable interface for space weather data.

Detailed Project Description
We want to be the portal for space data for people who want to explore for fun, and for people who live in the space world for model creations and analysis.
Our data is fully working, connected to NASA's satellite sensors.
Our site showed the following space weather data:
- Solar Wind Forecast
- Solar Flare
- Coronal Mass Ejection
There's a mismatch between the space budget (1.5B$ for PSP) and the data access that the public gets.
Satellites are becoming more and more common, and CMEs and solar flares are things that we as a society need to take into consideration. It's time for an easy-to-use portal for all that data.
We developed it with React and Node.

Hackathon Journey
The hackathon was amazing, we are a team of two, so it was fun moving fast.
Learned a lot, met great and smart people, and most of all we felt that the product we built - actually creates value.
