Detailed Project Description
THE FIRST LEVEL EXPLAINS DIFFERENCE IN INFRARED AND VISIBLE LIGHT .THE GAME CAN BE CONTROLLED USING W,A,S,D and space bar to shoot and 1,2,3,4,5 and R,G,B key for nirspec to use various instruments of jwst like nircam,nirspec etc.
LEFT AND RIGHT arrow key is used to control jwst . first we have to collect photons for the data on aliens.in 2 nd level it explains the chemical composition of aliens by using nirspec mode in order to see aliens.in last stage we have to use all jwst instruments like FGS which help in focusing on ceratiain art of space.this game helps everyone to understand the JWST better.i hope to make people better understand how jwst works by this game.i used python as programming language and pygame as game library.
we have to use nirspec with RED ,BLUE AND GREEN in infrared light ,to find chemical composition of the alien by pressing R,G AND B keys
Space Agency Data
i used nasa open data and data of other space agencies too all the the open data was extremely helpful especially the blogs and articles explaining jwst.

Hackathon Journey
my journey of space apps challenge was amazing as i learned a lot in the making of my project . All the struggle in making the game in 2 days was tiring at the same time exciting. i learned a lot in programming in python during making the game. My approach in making the game was to develop something that can explain jwst in simpler and fun way. During setback i asked for help from my elders and other well wishers. i WOULD LIKE TO thank my physics teacher for helping and nasa team for this grate challenge.
