Zero Robotics is a computer coding program where middle school students learn to program robotic satellites aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The competition starts online, where teams program the Astrobee Satellites to solve an annual challenge. After several phases of virtual competition in a simulation environment, finalists are selected to compete in a live championship aboard the ISS. An astronaut conducts the championship competition in microgravity with a live broadcast to your school or organization.
