Thanks Owerri, Imo State!
Human space exploration helps to address fundamental questions about our place in the Universe and the history of our solar system. However, we still encounter some basic challenges while trying to explore the space which through addressing those challenges; especially related to human space exploration we expand technology, create new industries, and help to foster a peaceful connection with other nations. It is against this backdrop that we are calling on enthusiast and futuristic Software developers to participate in contributing to build solutions that will enhance the space exploration exercise for a better human community.
Space Apps is an international hackathon for coders, scientists, designers, storytellers, makers, builders, technologists, and others in cities around the world, where teams engage with NASA’s free and open data to address real-world problems on Earth and in space. This is the first time Space App Challenge will be coming to the South Eastern state and we are happy to announce to you that we are the host. Space Apps 2018 included over 18,000 participants at more than 200 events in 75 countries.
For 2019, we are happy to bring to your notice that Heartland Hub will be your host around the South East- Owerri to be precised!
