NASA is on a mission to foster innovation through a diversity of perspectives and is encouraging global citizens to come together to solve perplexing problems faced by NASA Scientists on a daily basis.

The NASA Space Apps Challenge is one of the largest hackathons in the universe and part of the Open Government Partnership.  

Coders, scientists, designers, storytellers, makers, builders, technologists, and everyone enthusiastic about curiosity come together over the weekend to address challenges we face on Earth and in space!

Don't let the name fool you... it's not just about apps! Tackle a challenge using robotics, data visualization, hardware, design and many other specialties!
