Booth Description: 

Want to convince your math teacher that 10 + 10 = 4? Stop by PC14-17 to chat with the Viasat team and learn about binary code, a language that lets you translate numbers, words, images, sounds, and just about anything else you can think of into a simple string of 0s and 1s! 

As the builder of the highest-capacity satellite in the world, Viasat beams super-fast internet from space to just about anywhere on the globe. We rely on binary code to translate the billions of bits of information that reach our satellite each second into the games, TV shows, and websites you browse on the internet at home, school, and even on a plane. Explore this limitless language as you decipher our binary puzzle and reveal a hidden image. Then, translate your name or favorite saying into binary code! Get ready to see numbers in a whole new light (and stump your math teacher while you’re at it) when you visit Viasat’s booth!
