Hello again, High-Performance Fast Computing Community - it's week three of the submission phase, and there's already over two thousand of you.
That's wonderful!
There's a good chance you found your way here from one of the numerous articles featuring the challenge; the press coverage for this competition has been fantastic - check it out for yourself on our Press Page.
One result of this surge of interest is that NASA will require some extra time to process all the software requests. NASA is committed to getting everyone who is interested and eligible involved.
Due to the amazing level of interest, we're working on a new, extended challenge timeline that will accommodate those interested and eligible so that there will be adequate time to apply for the software, receive it, and complete your design for submission.
If you haven't already, apply for the software by June 29th (that deadline stays the same) and stay tuned for an updated timeline!
