Each year, NASA’s Space Apps Challenge brings together thousands of people from around the world to solve challenges using NASA’s open-source data.
The hackathon is a 48-hour event where teams of technologists, scientists, designers, artists, educators, entrepreneurs, developers, and students across the globe collaborate and engage with publicly available data to design innovative solutions for global challenges.
This year, we decided to create a web app that would allow users to learn more about the James Webb Space Telescope and its mission but with games and animations to make it more fun.
