What IS SPACE APPS?
Space Apps is an international hackathon for coders, scientists, designers, researchers, and others who are passionately involved in finding solutions for global problems. This is the world's largest international hackathon organized by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).
Now it is its 11th year and Space Apps 2022 is scheduled for October 1-2!! Participants will be offered to take part in the virtual Boot camp where they can attend the workshops and training to get an idea about the available resources.
We look forward to seeing teams bring up new innovative ideas and win the title.
WHAT IS SPACE APPS COLOMBO?
Space Apps Colombo is proud to host its third local hackathon this year 2022 with the guidelines of NASA and the Space Apps Global organizing team. We are proud to say that in the last 2 years we successfully completed this competition and last year three teams were selected as global nominees, who participated in the global event representing Colombo, Sri Lanka.
As well as the last year, this year’s local event will host as a virtual event.
Space Apps gives an opportunity to local coders, scientists, designers, technologists, university undergraduates, and students around the country to engage in NASA’s free and open data to address real-world problems on earth and in space. This competition gives the partakers the opportunity to bring projects to life with a wide range of applications. This provides a massive opportunity for Sri Lanka as a developing country to inspire its young generation in earth and space science exploration. And also, this is their chance to experience, experiment, and explore solutions and improve their creativity and critical thinking while directly participating in a program organized by organizations like NASA.
Universities all around the country including the government and private universities both are participating and involved in organizing this event. Normally opportunities like this are very few for Sri Lankan university students to gather and work together. Therefore, this is a priceless opportunity for them too.
Please feel free to contact us in case of any queries relating to the event. All the social media links are available in the "SOCIAL LINKS" section.
Thank You!
