NASA invites innovators of all ages to register for the NASA Space Apps Challenge, held on Oct. 4-5. The 2025 theme is Learn, Launch, Lead, and participants will work alongside a vibrant community of scientists, technologists, and storytellers at more than 450 events worldwide. Participants can expect to learn skills to succeed in STEM fields, launch ideas that transform NASA\u2019s open data into actionable tools, and lead their communities in driving technological innovation.
 
During the NASA Space Apps Challenge, participants in the U.S. and around the world<\/a> gather at hundreds of in-person and virtual events to address challenges authored by subject matter experts across NASA divisions. These challenges range in complexity and topic, tasking participants with everything from creating machine learning models and leveraging artificial intelligence, to improving access to NASA research, to designing sustainable recycling systems for Mars, and to developing tools to evaluate <\/a> local air quality here on Earth.
 
Dr. Yoseline Angel Lopez, a former space apps challenge winner and now an assistant research scientist at NASA\u2019s Goddard Spaceflight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, can attest that the opportunity to Learn, Launch, Lead goes far beyond the hackathon. <\/a>  
 
\u201cThe NASA Space Apps Challenge gave me and my team a meaningful opportunity to apply science to real-world problems and gain validation from NASA scientists and industry experts,\u201d said Angel.<\/a>
 
In 2021, her team\u2019s winning web-app prototype was adopted by Colombia\u2019s Ministry of Agriculture, connecting smallholder farmers with local buyers. The platform also supported agricultural land-use monitoring using satellite imagery.
 
After the hackathon, project submissions are judged by NASA and space agency experts. Winners are selected for one of 10 global awards.
 
\u201cParticipating in the hackathon is exciting on its own. But when your project can lead to greater opportunities and make a difference in your community, that\u2019s a dream come true,\u201d said Angel. She will return to the 2025 hackathon as a NASA subject matter expert and challenge author, giving a Golden Age of innovators the opportunity to make a difference in their communities through the use of data from NASA and 14 space agency partners.
 
This year\u2019s partners include: Bahrain Space Agency; Brazilian Space Agency; CSA (Canadian Space Agency); ESA <\/a>(European Space Agency); ISRO (Indian Space Research Organisation); Italian Space Agency;<\/a> JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency); Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Centre of the United Arab Emirate<\/a>s; National Space Activities Commission of Argentina;<\/a>  Paraguayan Space Agency; South African National Space Agency; Spanish Space Agency; Turkish Space Agency; and the UK Space Agency.
 
NASA Space Apps is funded by NASA’s Earth Science Division<\/a> through a contract with Booz Allen Hamilton<\/a>, Mindgrub<\/a>, and SecondMuse<\/a>.
