About Astrochallenge

AstroChallenge is held annually in June. It is hosted over the span of a few days and challenges participants in all aspects of astronomy: from theoretical papers to practical observation techniques.

Founded in 2003, AstroChallenge was first established with the goal of promoting astronomy. Ever since then, our team of organisers from NUS and NTU worked to provide participants with an educational and enriching experience.

 

Fast forward 18 years, AstroChallenge has developed to become one of the biggest astronomy competitions in Singapore.
