Adelaide will host the finals of the Australian leg of a 24-hour international hackathon that will see students, developers and entrepreneurs use existing space technology and data to design new services and products.
It will be the first time the ActInSpace competition will take place in Australia and participants will be competing simultaneously with people in cities all over the world.
The event, co-organised by the French space agency Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales (CNES) and the European Space Agency (ESA), will be held at the University of South Australia with support from the South Australian Government.
