Meet Team 42 Heroes - Winner Of NASA SPACE APPS 2024.

In this episode I interview three of the members of the winning team: The Leader of the Project, Gabriel Chayb, Project Management and UI/UX: Ana Miziara and AI DEV: Gustavo Teixeira.

We talked about how this team from Brazil became the first in South America to win NASA's top technology award. They explained their clever solution for detecting moonquakes and marsquakes, which reached 97% accuracy by turning seismic data into images. The team shared the ups and downs of their intense 48-hour hackathon experience, including nearly missing the deadline when their system crashed with just hours to go. We discussed how their victory has inspired young people in their hometown and their upcoming trip to NASA where they'll meet with space scientists. Their story shows that with good planning, teamwork, and bold thinking, even the most complex problems can be solved.
