✨ Welcome to the Ultimate Fusion of Innovation, Curiosity & Community!
The NASA Space Apps Challenge is the world’s largest annual global hackathon, organized by NASA in collaboration with space agencies and partners worldwide. It brings together coders, scientists, designers, storytellers, makers, and problem-solvers to tackle real-world challenges using open data from NASA and its partners.
Blass College is proud to bring you the 2025 edition of the NASA Space Apps Challenge – Lagos' most electrifying tech and creativity sprint! We're not just hosting a hackathon — we're igniting minds, nurturing collaboration, and empowering the next generation of problem-solvers across Africa and beyond.
Participants form teams to create innovative solutions to problems related to Earth and space — from climate change and natural disasters to space exploration and robotics. The challenge is open to people of all skill levels and backgrounds, making it a truly inclusive platform for collaboration, creativity, and impact.
Whether you're a Gen Z tech prodigy, a curious student, a space nerd, or just someone with wild ideas and good vibes — this is your chance to collaborate, innovate, and imagine boldly.
