NASA Space Apps Challenge 2019 Promo

The International Space Apps Challenge was such a success in its early years that it has now become an annual event. The purpose of the event is to continue to give people everywhere an unprecedented opportunity to use NASA data to develop meaningful solutions to help to address critical needs applicable to both life in space and on Earth, and that it becomes a global community of individuals excited about collaborating to advance the frontiers of space science and technology.

NASA is hosting an International Space Apps Challenge where we welcome the problem solvers and innovators of all ages and from different backgrounds, to solve the challenges; just bring your brain, laptop, and passion for space.Nasa challenge categories are available. NASA people and other experts will be available to help participants find more information, data and complete their projects. Go and pick your challenge to improve life on Earth and beyond!

What exactly is NASA International Space Apps Challenge?

NASA Space Apps Challenge is an international competition that will take place simultaneously in over 170 locations around the world. Participants, from various different professional backgrounds, come together to form a team and solve challenges proposed directly by NASA. These challenges are focused on creating an impact on the life here on Earth as well as in Space. More detailed information on the challenges will be released soon.

How can I register /participate?

Just click on the registration button at the top right of this page as well as fill up. Though there is no mandatory requirement to form a team we recommend you to form the one for you having members with varied skill-sets (depends on the challenge you pick up). This will only help you to innovate better and without much overload. After all, bringing together very diverse skills and talents is often a key to breakthrough innovation!

How/When do I form a team?

You can form your team at any time. If possible, we recommend that you form at least the foundation of your team prior to the event. You can then complete your team by adding 'free agents' at the Boot-camp to round out your team.

If you do not have a team prior to the Space Apps weekend - don't worry!!! Register and show up and we'll make sure that you find a team that can benefit from your skills and insights.

Since the event is called Space Apps, do the solutions need to be applications?

In spite of the name, it is not just about APPS! There are challenges that involve robotics, data visualisation, hardware, design, and many other innovative elements!

We recommend you to visit previous year's challenges and review the projects and solutions of the previous winners. This will help you to get a fair idea about what the last year's participants did to beat up the challenge!
