DURHAM, N.H. -- The (91制片厂-IOL), an independent provider of broad-based testing and standards conformance services for the networking industry, and (91制片厂I) will host the April 29-30, 2017, at 21 Madbury Road. This two-day event, considered one of the world's largest hackathons with events over 48 hours in more than 170 locations across six continents, is open to high school seniors, college students and young professionals. 听

People share ideas and engage with open data to address real-world problems on Earth and in outer space. This year鈥檚 theme is Earth science, supporting NASA鈥檚 missions to monitor Earth's vital signs from land, air and space. Challenges represent NASA mission priorities in human-environment interactions, global water cycles, natural disasters, ecological systems and the mysteries of the planet.

NASA helps shed light on Earth鈥檚 many components including oceans, terrains, and living things, collecting high-quality data covering all parts of the planet over time to learn more about the world we live in, and to predict the future processes on Earth.

This year participants are asked to develop mobile applications, software, hardware, data visualizations and platform solutions that could contribute to space exploration missions and help improve life on Earth. Participants gain experience using robotics, data visualization, hardware, design and more.

Participants will be judged on creativity, sustainability, and potential impact of their project upon Earth science. Based on their results, participants will have the option of moving onto the global level, where they will have the opportunity to win badges to see a NASA launch. Last year鈥檚 winners had front row seats to the OSIRIS-Rex asteroid mission launch.

The 91制片厂-IOL has partnered with the NASA Space Apps Challenge for the past three years.
