Innovate Huntsville

The NASA International Space Apps Challenge (Space Apps) is an international hackathon for all aged coders, scientists, designers, storytellers, makers, artists, builders, technologists, students and others in cities around the world, where teams engage the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA’s) free and open data to address real-world problems on Earth and in space. The North Alabama region has a local event in Downtown Huntsville this year. Bring yourself, then join a team there, or bring your team ready to go!Each October, over the course of two days, Space Apps brings participants from around the world together at hundreds of in-person and virtual local events to solve challenges submitted by NASA experts. After the hackathon, project submissions are judged by local experts and leaders where prizes and recognition are given. Local winners advance to NASA consideration, judged by space agency experts. These winners are selected for one of 10 Global Awards.Space Apps provides problem-solvers worldwide with NASA’s free and open data, giving teams the opportunity to learn how to use these resources to solve each year’s challenges.Space Apps also inspire collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking. Our mission is to leverage this interest to encourage the growth and diversity of the next generation of scientists, technologists, designers, storytellers, artists and engineers.The 23 Challenges were announced on August 18th.
