Hackathon Summary

Space MicroHack | IAC '24 Edition recently concluded successfully, with 29 developers submitting 14 projects. As part of the 2024 International Astronautical Congress in Milan, this hackathon focused on student participants and aimed at the development of space technology. Unlike many hackathons, it required completed projects rather than new builds. Participants competed for a €400 grand prize and a €100 runner-up prize, with results expected to be announced in early November.

The event encouraged detailed project submissions, emphasizing participants' motivations, past achievements, visions for the future, and team structures. Applicants were advised to supplement their entries with videos, social media links, and GitHub repositories. Judging was based on the overall impression of the projects. This micro hackathon provided a platform for young developers to showcase their innovations in space technology, fostering strong engagement and providing a venue for students to gain recognition and exposure in the industry.
