International Space Olympiad
The International Space Olympiad, one of the most prestigious school-level events in the space field, has been held in Tel Aviv since 2000. Organized through the initiative of the Israel Space Agency and Ministry of Education, the Olympiad encourages young minds to explore the wonders of space. The competition consists of four stages, where participants showcase their knowledge in a hybrid format during regional and national finals. Competitors are grouped by age, and tasks are presented in multiple languages. With support from mentor teachers, students enhance their independent learning skills. The winning team will participate in the international finals in Tel Aviv in June 2025.

Participants go through the stages of conceptualizing, designing, building, launching, and presenting their satellites. Around 500 students will gain skills in critical thinking, programming, and project management. Ultimately, the winning team will have the opportunity to launch their satellite into orbit aboard SpaceX's "Falcon 9" rocket.
