The goal of this project was to create a convenient application to display news about spaceflight, astronomy, our solar system, and more. This app also provides a comprehensive and personalized source of news, as well as breaking and trending topics in the space community in a fun, approachable manner. The user has the ability to comment, save, and like articles, as well as follow authors and react to other user's comments.

While researching areas of spaceflight, I came across some of the first animals in space. The name of this news app,
as well as the characters the user can choose, came from the first 9 different animals to be launched into space. Newts were among those first 9.
