Update: AeroHack build window extended — clearer timeline & expectations

Based on early interest, the AeroHack build window has been extended to give teams adequate time to deliver correct, reproducible, and well-validated solutions.

What changed (exact):

  • Hacking period: Feb 2 → Feb 23, 2026 (London time)

  • Judging period: Feb 23 → Mar 3, 2026

  • Winner announcement: Mar 3, 2026

Why this matters:
The extended timeline allows teams to properly implement a unified aircraft + spacecraft planning framework, run robustness/validation experiments, and produce clean results bundles and reports that judges can reproduce end-to-end.

Reminders:

  • No video required

  • Submissions must include runnable code, reproducible run steps, results (plots/metrics), and validation evidence

  • Solo…

Update Title:
AeroHack registration is open (solo allowed) — Starter Pack + clear requirements

Update Body:
Registration for AeroHack is open now (online). Solo participants are welcome (teams recommended but not required).

What you’ll build (advanced):

  • Aircraft: mission planning + simulation (UAV/fixed-wing) under constraints (wind, energy/endurance, maneuver limits, geofencing/no-fly zones)

  • Spacecraft: 7-day LEO CubeSat-style mission plan (observations + downlinks) under orbit/visibility + simplified pointing/power proxies

  • Unified approach: one planning framework across both domains (constraints + objective + planner)

No video required. Instead, submissions must include: runnable repo + reproducible run steps + results bundle (plots/metrics/outputs) + 4–8 page report +…
