Overview

Mission Zero offers young people the chance to have their code run in space!

Computer programming for kids. Use Scratch, Micro:bit and more to learn coding through designing games and animations.


Write a simple program with step by step instructions to take a reading from the colour and luminosity sensor on an Astro Pi computer on board the International Space Station, and use it to set the background colour in a personalised image for the astronauts to see as they go about their daily tasks.

Your image will be displayed for up to 30 seconds and you will receive a personalised certificate showing the exact location of the ISS when your program ran!

You can do take part individually or if you have a brother or sister who is 6-13, you can take part together. When booking, please include them (Maximum 2 entrants per family).

Booking Required.
