Zero Robotics is a national five-week summer program in which teams of middle school students learn to program using a free-flying satellite known as SPHERES (Synchronized Position Hold, Engage, Reorient, Experimental Satellites) on the International Space Station. Finalists ultimately go head-to-head against teams from across the country, while astronauts referee the final competition live from space using the SPHERES. Texas schools and out-of-school-time providers are encouraged to create a team of 8-20 students and apply to participate. Teams comprising middle school students traditionally under-represented in STEM careers are particularly encouraged to apply.
