Global Nominee

The Challenge | Build a Planet

Your challenge is to create a game that will allow players to customize the characteristics of a star and design planets that could reasonably exist in that star system. Ensure that this game provides an educational experience for players!

Build a planet

Build a Planet is a web application that allows users to create their own planets, stars, moons and customize its properties while at the same time being an educational experience.

Voyagers

Background:

We're a team of 3 students from Tuzla,Bosnia&Herzegovina.
We chose this challenge because of our programming background and the passion to provide an educational experience.

Resources:

We used NASA's API to get the data about exoplanets to compare user created planets with already existing ones.

Challenges We Faced:

A challenge we faced was to clean the datasets and filter the attributes of planets that we needed.
In the short time span of the Space App Challenge we succesfully developed a machine learning algorithm which finds the most similar planet to the user created planet.

Goals:

To create a learning platform for young people through which they will educate themselves about the mysterious galaxy, exoplanets, astronomical objects, planet compositions and much more.
Besides the creation of planets, stars and moons we want to give the player the ability to create his whole own unique galaxy.
