Unlocking The Secrets of The Sun

High-Level Project Summary

We developed a platform to educate the public on our discovery of our Solar System Sun through Parker Solar Probe. Essentially, we want to make the general public to understand our finding with interactive website, fun ways and less scientific jargon so that people more understand the technology and science behind it. We believe educating publics is important so that people will inspire and one day human kind especially the future generation can get more advancement in technology especially towards space science field. There are abundant of data regarding our sun. We visualised it in unique and interactive way through our website so that people understand better.

Detailed Project Description

On the website (the platform we made), it has multiple interactive images such as the Parker Solar Probe and the Sun so that the user can play around with it and look into it closely. Moreover, we made an interactive stories and mini game through scratch.

We also let the audience know on the ionosphere where they can interact with with Power BI Dashboard. The platform that we are using to develop the website is through google sites. The 3D interactive images were picked from NASA resources.

Space Agency Data

We've been using resources from NASA Space apps challenge, Canadian Space Agency and NASA public data. (Reference provided).

We've using NASA resources for the interactive images with the embedded code. We made an extra effort to utilise the NASA public data through google.

Hackathon Journey

The data provide by NASA on the Parker Solar Probe, our Sun and much more. The thing is that, it has too much information to be digested. We thought of to compile it and make a interesting and more interactive way for public to understand the wonder of science.

Hollis, Naz and Ernest worked together to build website that has scratch game, stories, narrate it into more interesting way and as well integrate a Power BI dashboard on it. Throughout the 48-hours of developing the platform, we get to know more on in unravel the science of our sun especially through the Parker Solar Probe. Indeed, we had a blast to learn along the way.

We've been attending workshops from SARAWAK Space Apps Challenges 2022 and we would like to thank teacher toe and team for organising this and guided us along the way.
