Proposed work:

A website is created once by using HTML on the notepad because HTML enables websites to work faster and once by using the google website to be able to modify it and add special features like mini-games. This website is different and more unique from the others because it enables the user to interact while learning. we have designed this website as an easy and attainable source to educate people more, raise their awareness, and light the way for inventive minds where It enables the user to understand the risks of traveling to space which are microgravity in flight, hypergravity during launch and landing, disrupted sleep and circadian rhythms, limited supplies, restricted access to medical care, exposure to the microbes found on spacecraft, radiation, and being weightlessness. while going on the journey of discovering the risks the website enables the user to search for what they want and then related words will pop up. The idea of the website is that it gives you all the information that you need about the risks and then sums the solution of the risks in 5 categories which are: 1. Smart Organisms

2. Organisms that handle extreme gravity

3. Most resistant organisms

4. Our biology superhero

5.play with us which contains a quiz and a game.

1. Smartest organisms:

It’s seen that to travel to space you must be smart enough.

First, the organism that is traveling to space must be a problem solver and well trained to be able to do the missions wanted, access medical care, and deal with limited resources like the cockatoo parrot which is intelligent enough to solve puzzles and be patient to not eat all the food at once to get a better meal. Second, the organism must be able to talk so it can send messages like chimpanzees which can be trained to talk in sign language.

2. Organisms that handle extreme gravity

Microorganisms were among the survivors when we talk about traveling to outer space. It is likely that this bacterium can withstand gravitational fields that are considerably stronger than 403,627g. The findings imply that D. readjourns' effective molecular response mechanism makes it longer-term that even longer and farther travels are feasible for animals with similar capabilities.

3. Most resistant organisms

Resistant organisms don’t mean that they are physically strong but that they can live in harsh conditions. A very interesting organism named tardigrades is known for being able to overcome radiation 100 times better than a human. It also can live for a period of time without oxygen and live while the huge changes in temperature as low as -200 °C (-328 °F) and as high as 151 °C (304 °F). it also can survive all of the following:

Tardigrades have been known to survive the following extreme conditions: 1. freezing and/or thawing processes. 2. changes in salinity. 3. lack of oxygen. 4. lack of water. 5. levels of X-ray radiation 1000x the lethal human dose. 6. some noxious chemicals. 7. boiling alcohol. 8. low pressure of a vacuum

4. our biology superhero:

Can you guess our biology superhero? Our biological Superhero is Not Of This Earth as you see, because it will be genetically modified by genetic engineering. After studying the risks, you have seen that no single animal on this Earth can bear the harsh events in space. So, it would be better to take the smartest, most resistant organisms that handle extreme gravity together and combine their wonderful features to make our biology Superhero. At first, we made the use guess what’s our biology superhero while reading. Then there’s an interactive game that makes the user able to match the pieces of it to see it photoshopped so the user can understand better what genetic engineering is. After that, the website gives all the required information about genetic engineering to the users, so it enables them to know how new genes from other species are inserted into our targeted animals. Then, the website also discusses an experiment made to insert desired proteins into humans and tells the user about the human genome project.

5. play with us:

Play with us is an interesting and interactive category on our website. Because you can’t remember information without practice, the play with us category enables the user to take a practice quiz. After that, the user can interact again by playing an interesting game.

We used resources from Nasa space apps to know the risks and searched for organisms in trusted resources.

The journey of the hackathon was totally new to the whole team. It was a really wonderful experiment since we learned new technical things, new things about space and risks that happens during traveling to it, and it created a space for us to work in teams for 48 hours. Our team was inspired by the love of learning new things so we chose to make a website since we don't even know how to do programming. We also approached the developing of this project by making digital marketing to it and study more of the side effects that happens in space. Our team resolved all the challenges by searching in trusted resources about everything and listening to each other.
