Moonshot Hackathon
hey everyone, Arnav here - co-founder of Aethra.
Moonshot is the most ambitious thing we have built so far.
not a typical hackathon. no "build an app for X" prompts. no trend-chasing. Moonshot is a 5-day online event for students who want to work on ideas that sound unreasonable - the kind of ideas that become real technologies in 20 years.
we want prototypes, research papers, and visions for systems that do not exist yet.
and we just landed our first sponsor.
CodeCrafters - used by engineers at Google, Meta, Apple, Stripe, and Vercel - is officially on board. the prize pool is already past $4,000 and we are just getting started.
1st place: 2-year CodeCrafters VIP ($720 value)
2nd place: 1-year CodeCrafters VIP ($360 value)
3rd place: 6-month CodeCrafters VIP ($180 value)
plus more prizes and sponsors being announced soon.
we are also planning a closing award ceremony ceremony with speaker talks from researchers and builders. this is going to be something worth being part of.
June 17 to 21 | fully online | students 13+ | free

if you have an idea that sounds too ambitious, that is exactly what we are looking for
