The 2015 International Space Apps Challenge is coming to Mojave.
This is an international, interdisciplinary three day event dedicated to collaborative problem solving and innovation. This event is free and open to the public. Engineers, computer programmers, students, artists, and techies are all invited to participate. This is a great opportunity to learn new skills, meet new people, and have fun!
This event is being hosted by We Are Mojave (WAM), a sponsored project of Social Good. WAM’s mission is to bring the community together for all to uplift, learn, and grow.
Location
We will be at 16916 CA-14 Mojave, CA, next to the Stater Brothers Grocery Store. While you’re here, you may want to explore the Mojave Air & Spaceport, just 2 miles away. As home to Scaled Composites, The Spaceship Company, and other innovative companies, it’s a great place to find inspiration for the weekend’s challenges.
