About Zero Robotics
Zero Robotics is a robotics programming competition which allows high school students unprecedented access to the International Space Station (ISS). The robots programmed by competing teams are SPHERES (Synchronized Position Hold Engage and Reorient Experimental Satellites) that reside on board the ISS.

Teams compete in a simulation environment that mimics the real SPHERES and finalists are selected to compete in a live championship aboard the ISS.

The University of Sydney is the Australian Regional Coordinator for Zero Robotics.
