Many attendees in the seats have their hands and arms raised enthusiastically, some smiling and laughing.

    Two young women are seated behind small tables on stage in a darkened auditorium. A large screen behind them displays lines of code and game status text, the words "Match 6," and a "ZERO ROBOTICS" logo. To the right hangs a vertical banner reading "ZERO ROBOTICS ISS Programming Challenge" with a collage of photos. In the foreground, the silhouetted heads and raised hands of audience members are visible.
