Event schedule:

Saturday 23rd April: 9am kickoff to late! Introduction to challenges, team formation + solution development by teams

Sunday 24th April: 9am to 9pm; Solution Development and Final Pitches

The Challenges:

Choose from 25 different challenges, including those related to virtual reality, gaming, education, fashion, hardware and data science! NASA will be releasing data to each challenge page shortly. NASA designs the challenges based on actual mission directorates, and there are also collaborators from ESA (the European Space Agency) on a few challenges as well! https://2016.spaceappschallenge.org/challenges
