Space Apps is an international hackathon that occurs over 48 hours in
cities around the world. Because of citizens like you, we continue to grow
each year. If you haven’t already, join us to share ideas and engage with
open data to address real-world problems, on Earth and in space. Work alone
or with a team to solve challenges that could help change the world. And
everybody can help, diverse backgrounds (software developers, engineers,
artists, journalists, hackers, makers,…) will provide unique solutions to
global problems that nobody thought about before. Join Space Apps in the
Stuttgart hackerspace shackspace.
