Come join us for the Space Apps 2022 Universal Event! Be a part of an awesome and engaging community working together to address major challenges in space and on Earth.
YOUR LOCAL LEAD
My name is Chris! I’m a member of the Space Apps Global Organizing Team. I’ll be your Universal Event Local Lead for Space Apps 2022. I’ll be available from now until the end of the hackathon to help guide you through the journey, answer your questions, and connect you to resources. Please feel free to email me with questions at universalevent@spaceappschallenge.org.
As the hackathon nears, I'll let you know about upcoming dates and events! Starting in July, I'll also be sending messages to all Universal Event participants through the Space Apps dashboard. Please check your Space Apps inbox for the latest news!
FIND ANSWERS
Find basic information to guide your Space Apps journey under the “Welcome” tab (above). You can also check out the Participant FAQ and other guides (on the chat rooms, team formation, and project submission), which will be posted soon. All of the guides will be posted on the Resource page.
HOW TO PARTICIPATE
- Starting mid-July, you can register for the Space Apps Universal Event by selecting the "Register" button on the right side of the page.
- Once you’ve registered, keep an eye out in your Space Apps inbox for messages from me, Chris, your Universal Event Lead. (Login to your account, and select “My Account” in the menu bar. You’ll see a link to “Communications” on the right-hand side.) I will keep you updated as more information becomes available.
- Log in the week prior to the hackathon to join the chat rooms and start forming teams. You will be able to form a team from members of any location or create a team with other members of the Universal Event (Our chat rooms will have a dedicated channel for Universal Event participants). More information on these items coming soon!
Project Submission Deadlines for Universal Event Teams
The submission deadline is 2 October 11:59 PM local time, according to the team's creator (so if that's you, that's 11:59 PM your time). If someone else created your team, you need to submit the project by 2 October 11:59 PM their time. For more information, please read through our Participant FAQ and the Project Submission Guide.
