JAMES WEBB WORD SNIFF: Make Space for Learning

High-Level Project Summary

We are "NITER SCRAPPERS." We have created a mobile application named "JAMES WEBB WORD SNIFF." For those who are interested in Astronomy. By playing this game, one can smoothly gather information about the recent milestone of science, James Webb Space Telescope. It makes information about James Webb Space Telescope more accessible and handy.

Detailed Project Description

A recently published study from researchers at the Technical University of Denmark suggests the collective global attention span is narrowing. That's Why Learning by reading Critical articles is not so much easy for this generation. So we have created this app for those who are interested in space and to make learning more fun and interesting. This app is a prototype of a game for making information more accessible, interesting, and transparent to people of all ages. We arrange the information about the James Webb Space Telescope in sequence so that we can make awareness of the capabilities and performance of NASA's James Webb Space Telescope.

Because of this, all information about space will not be limited only to people from science background & those people who are enthusiastic about space". It will be spread and become accessible among people from all walks. And all classes of people will be able to acquire knowledge in this subject very easily.

Learning something new becomes a difficult task. But if we can learn through a game, it will be a lot easier. And if it is something interesting like JEMES WEBB SPACES TELESCOPE! It will be something to be a master at. Let's see how we can visit various attractions of space apart from ( James Webb Space Telescope) through the game.

Webb will study every phase in the history of our universe, ranging from the first luminous glows after the big bang, to the formation of solar systems capable of supporting life on planets like Earth, to the evolution of our own solar system. It will build on the Hubble Space Telescope's discoveries.

We know That JAMES WEBB SPACE TELESCOPE shares the first image of the most distant galaxy ever observed. Which were around 235 million years after the event of the Big Bang. There is much more information to find out and discover. The predecessor of the James Webb Space Telescope, Hubble can see the equivalent of "toddler galaxies " and the James Webb Space Telescope will be able to see "baby galaxies". By playing this game, we can learn about the mechanism, characteristics, and other important parts of the James Webb Space Telescope. And Keep exploring more and more knowledge about space.

By learning about James Webb Space Telescope, we can figure out what lies beyond Earth, it gives us context for understanding our own planet. Studying the other worlds of our solar system and beyond makes it clear that Earth is a precious oasis for life.

We are eager to improve the quality of this app and add other features like the live position, 3D animation, and simulation of the James Webb Space Telescope.

Here I used NASA Space Agency Data in my project. Nasa is the world's largest and most rich space agency. It provides billions of gigabytes (exabytes) of data from its rich history of planetary, lunar, terrestrial, and Earth-orbiting missions. I used this data as a video, audio, text, image, etc in my project.It enriches and accurate our project. That’s how it inspired our project.

Hackathon Journey

Our Hackathon.

The final date of the last submission of 240 seconds of glory was 20 September 2022 and the journey of us "NITER SCRAPPERS" Started on 15 September 2022.

Our team leader Mozammal told us about the Space App Challenge. Can we participate or not? Then we built a team instantly and searched for the best suitable challenge for us.

Then we started to study those challenges,

When we started to learn about James Webb Space Telephone our team was fascinated by its capabilities. But it was critical to understand about James Webb space telescope because of is too much information in one long article in NASA's dedicated website.

Then we got an idea to make it more engaging and interesting using NASA's data. And we took the challenge of "Learning through the looking glass" and got selected to participate in a physical Hackathon
