SXSW 2024

Crowdsourcing at NASA & How You Can Be Part of Our Mission

Description:

NASA’s success is not NASA’s alone—for more than a decade, the agency has benefited from the creativity and ingenuity of the public to support the agency through crowdsourcing initiatives. Join our discussion of the past, present, and future of NASA crowdsourcing and how the public directly contributes to NASA missions.

Panelists include leadership from NASA's Prizes, Challenges, and Crowdsourcing program, who will share history of NASA crowdsourcing and how the public can get involved. A past participant will also share how a challenge helped advanced their 3D-printed habitat technology.
