Introducing the next generation of cinematic Space News.
Changing the way spaces news are broadcast.

The problem

With the rise of space exploration rockets and technologies, Space is back to being the center of cutting edge technology. It provides hope for humanity and it gives a sense of adventure. Making us ultimately feel, that there is more to life than just fixing problems after problems.
After some Design research, I came to the conclusion, that there is no exciting or adventurous web platform that can excite or even amuse their users when looking for spaces news (Besides SpaceX).
The intended solution is to build something that can make users feel they are watching news from outside earth, as if they were in orbit. The goal is to take the users into a journey where that can feel the depth of spaces from the comfort of their own homes.

Lean UX Design Methodology.

Is a process I enjoy working on. Personally I find it faster and it can be accurately at times.
Think = Explore problems and find solutions.
Make = Start designing sketches, wireframes, prototypes (MVP)
Check = Find out how users respond to your design
