At the end of the day the teams present their ideas to a specialist board of judges, in an attempt to win the contract.  These competitions are specially designed for younger participants so that they can experience the exciting nature of the UKSDC. All team members will receive a certificate of participation. Medals will be given to the winning team.

The Galactic Challenge can be tailored to meet the requirements of individual institutions for a variety of participant ages and requirements. The challenge lends itself to be used as a taster day for feeder schools, a finale to a UKSDC after school club, or for an end of year challenge.
