NASA Space Apps Challenge 2026

Nov 14, 2026 – Nov 15, 2026NASA

Free global hackathon where teams use NASA's open data to tackle real-world challenges, with local in-person and fully virtual participation options.

Details: Long-running annual NASA event; the specific page sections retrieved didn't use the word "free" outright, but multiple independent write-ups this cycle describe it explicitly as a free, worldwide hackathon with no entry fee.

The Notable People Project

Open project documenting notable people and the data behind who gets recorded as notable.

Why I recommend it: Interesting for what it reveals about whose lives get written down. Coverage is patchy, so treat gaps as gaps in the record rather than in reality.
