It’s time to tame the last wild frontier of cybersecurity:
As our lives become increasingly dependent on technologies that lie deep in space, it is imperative that we do what it takes to secure our universe. Hack-A-Sat 2 (HAS2) is designed to inspire the world’s top cybersecurity talent to develop the skills necessary to help reduce vulnerabilities and build more secure space systems.
The United States Air Force and United States Space Force jointly present this year’s Hack-A-Sat, which is open to all cybersecurity researchers who want to up their skills and knowledge of space cybersecurity.

The Naming of Cats
The Naming of Cats is a difficult matter,
It isn’t just one of your holiday games;
You may think at first I’m as mad as a hatter
When I tell you, a cat must have THREE DIFFERENT NAMES.
