High-Level Project Summary
A star that catches our attention every day, the glorious sun. This story is about the significance of the giant ball of fire and the mission of the Parker Solar Probe to explore the complexities of the biggest star in space and everything that encompasses it. We aimed to write a story that would act as a catalyst for the existing curiosity in young brains. The sun is crucial for our lives on Earth so it is important for people to understand the complexities of the mighty star. Through our story, we will instill passion into the young hearts so that they could dream big and attempt to find answers to their curious questions.

Detailed Project Description
Benefits: it will help individuals to haveknowledge of Parker Solar Probe in a very fascinating way. Since many people are unaware and find space stories unexciting, we will deliver a narration about Parker Solar Probe in a captivating manner.
Hopes: we hope to display an accurate and deep understanding of our project in a very positive and constructive manner.
We used Google Docs and Canva to make our project.
Space Agency Data
We gathered information provided by the NASA space app challenge website. The articles provided in the resource link were used efficiently. We collected the information about the Parker Solar Probe and inculcated it into our writing to make it look like a story. The fascinating information inspired us to write a story that would motivate young minds to think and be curious about the sun and outer space.
Hackathon Journey
The hackathon experience was incredible. Being a medicine student, it was a different experience to learn things about NASA, and it's space research and builds something dynamic throughout the process.
The thought that inspired our team to choose the challenge "On the Way to the Sun" was that it provides an opportunity for writers to broaden their horizons and explore their writing skills in the space genre.
Our approach was very straightforward from the start as we read the challenge, that we would write a narration.
We had not decided on the members of the team, which created some problems for us. However, the time was accurately managed, so it did not bother us much.
We would like to thank NASA and our Local Leads who provided us with this great platform and opportunity in participating in the Hackathon as it really helps individuals in showcasing their ideas and talent.
