High-Level Project Summary
We developed an informative tool that allows the viewer to learn about the stresses of space travel and how other organisms could cope with these challenges.You can also build your own space superhero, and the app will provide a fun name for your creation.

Detailed Project Description
We used flowlab to create our project. This was a good choice because our final project looks good enough to be in an app! The user clicks a button and the tool responds by clicking onto a new screen, which either contains information about a stressor and how the animal we picked can cope with it or the build your own superhero tool, which lets you mix and match.

Space Agency Data
We were amazed to find out that astronauts recycled urine ! https://www.nasa.gov/centers/marshall/news/releases/2020/nasa-marshall-engineers-refine-hardware-apply-innovative-solutions-to-more-reliably-recycle.html
This gave us the idea to include flamingos( which can drink boiling hot, extremely salty, poop filled(!!!) water routinely without getting sick!) in our tool.
Hackathon Journey
We would like to thank our parents for letting us stay up till mid night to finish our project. We split our team with one of us doing research and other two took to coding. Biology space super hero seemed like a really interesting challenge where we could combine our passion for science, space and coding. Our work got deleted and we were a bit dejected as we poured hours in to it but luckily we were able to recover it. Coding also hit roadblocks but we overcame them grit and determination.
