Moreover, the challenge presupposes cooperation and even internationally: "The International Space Apps Challenge 2014 is a two-day event, during which citizens from around the world work together to solve space technology problems and social needs, under the auspices of NASA . »
The organizers promise "a productive two days" in Athens and remind us that in 2013 the participation of Popey On Mars from hackerspace.gr κέρδισε το πρώτο βραβείο στην κατηγορία “Best Mission Concept”.

Of course, the hackerspace is inspired by the philosophy of “open» είτε πρόκειται για software, είτε για hardware και η ανάπτυξη εφαρμογών και εξοπλισμού θα γίνει με ανοικτά εργαλεία. Σκοπός, να δημιουργηθούν ηλεκτρονικές και μηχανολογικές κατασκευές και αναπαραστάσεις δεδομένων με οπτικοακουστικό υλικό.
During the event and especially at night, participants will experiment with the constructions that will be implemented for the needs of the challenges. Weather permitting, the night sky will be observed through telescopes of members of the Association.
- Tracking is open to the public. If you want to participate in trying to solve the challenges, you have to register.
