There's always space for one more.
And a home afterwards.
The world's biggest hackathon lasts one weekend. Your team doesn't have to. Stardust Odyssey is the year-round home base, sponsored by us, free for you.
A free home base built and sponsored by Stardust for NASA Space Apps Challenge participants. Independent, and not an official NASA product; NASA does not endorse Stardust. Register for the hackathon at spaceappschallenge.org.
Everything your team needs, before and after the weekend
Most hackathon teams evaporate on Monday. Yours gets a crew space, mentors, training and a second competition to aim at: all year, all free.
Start here: the Stardust Challenge
Enter the Stardust Challenge 2026: our own global competition, with the finale in Seattle on 4-5 November. Use Space Apps in November as your team's training run: same crew, two competitions, one journey.
