Summary

Summary

Working on a space-related project is something I've always wanted to do. As a space enthusiast, I've watched many space movies and documentaries, so creating a website where you can see all the exciting news and sign up for space events was a perfect fit for me. I definitely need to expand my web development skills to add more features to the site.
