What happened
The NASA ORBIT (Opportunities in Research, Business, Innovation, and Technology for the Workforce) Challenge invites university and community college students nationwide to work with real NASA intellectual property and mission challenges. Choose your path: develop commercial applications of NASA patents that solve problems here on Earth (ORBIT Earth), or design next-generation technologies for space exploration (ORBIT Space). NASA is a space exploration and public company founded in 1958.
The most ambitious teams can pursue both through the optional Integration Bonus. Finalists gain access to an exclusive accelerator program designed to launch careers in STEM and entrepreneurship.
