Registration is now open!

The NASA International Space Apps Challenge (Space Apps) is an international hackathon for coders, scientists, designers, storytellers, makers, builders, technologists, and others taking place online in cities around the world. Participating teams are called to engage the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA’s) free and open data to address real-world problems on Earth and in space.

On Saturday, 1 October and Sunday, 2 October 2021, participants from around the world will come together to solve a series of challenges submitted by the NASA personnel. Space Apps introduces problem-solvers worldwide to NASA’s free and open data. Space Apps inspires collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking. The SpaceApps mission is to leverage the worldwide interest in the challenges to encourage the growth and diversity of the next generation of scientists, technologists, designers, storytellers, and engineers.

This Raleigh, North Carolina event, will be hosted virtually in 2022. Raleigh, known as the 'City of Oaks' and is the State Capital for North Carolina. Raleigh is home to North Carolina State University (NC State) and is part of the Research Triangle together with Durham (home of Duke University and North Carolina Central University) and Chapel Hill (home of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill). The name of the Research Triangle (often shortened to the "Triangle") originated after the 1959 creation of Research Triangle Park (RTP), located in Durham and Wake counties, among the three cities and their universities. The Triangle encompasses the U.S. Census Bureau's Raleigh-Durham-Cary Combined Statistical Area (CSA), which had an estimated population of 2,037,430 in 2013. The Raleigh metropolitan statistical area had an estimated population of 1,390,785 in 2019.
