About the hackaton:

Step on board as we set on the journey to develop the future of space! 

As we seek to explore the opportunities beyond our planet, the acceleration of space technologies is limited by the challenges posed on Earth. How to reduce the cost of spaceflight by reusing? How to proof spacetech against malware and cyberattacks? How to clean up space debris? How to optimize space navigation? How to use satellite data on earth for sustainability? How to enhance collaboration in the space sector and many more? We are on a mission to face these challenges!
