For all you problems solvers and computer enthusiasts, next weekend, Lowe Mill is hosting an open competition at STEAM Works. 

The event is all about finding solutions to some of NASA’s challenges.

For those that can “hack it”, a grand prize includes a ten thousand dollar check.

Eberhart went on to say that the competition is open and free to the public, so she encourages any interested locals to sign up.
