Young adult, Amber Yang, is tackling the problem of space junk, which seems insurmountable. What is space junk? It is the debris caused by space crafts and satellites. On earth, average people don’t recognize it. Yang created a program that can precisely track the positions of space junk far out into space, in fact  the software is nearly 100% accurate. (“About Amber Young,” n.d.). A recipient of the Intel Foundation Young Scientist Award, her programs are astoundingly more accurate than NASA’s offerings. She formed a startup company called SEER in conjunction with Stanford University. However, she started this project in high school.When a sparecraft comes into contact with floating space debris, its possible for collisions of up to 30 thousand miles per hour, essentially tearing holes in the spacecraft. Her research and company launch will undoubtedly help spacecrafts avoid catastrophic damage, as space debris can cause fatalities and major damage to satellites.

Heroes Jobs was created by three young adults, Cyriac Lefort, Tristan Petit, and Adrien Dewulf. The trio set out to create a platform for social networking built for those seeking employment. The tech platform allows job seekers to enhance what an employer sees on a resume, providing much needed clarity to companies looking for the right fit.. They recognized a major gap in employment apps and websites, as sites like LinkedIn don’t cater to millennial and Gen Z needs. By initially targeting younger generations Heroes Jobs recognized early in their development the need for a more niche job platform, thus they developed their platform with a modern aesthetic appealing to younger generations. These young generations are visual oriented. With job seekers having the ability to create video applications that are sent directly to employers, it removes the hassle of setting up interviews. The new company is wise because they will capture a viable audience, especially in Generation Z, which is the largest generation ever, making up 30% of the world’s population (“Generation Z and Alpha Update,” n.d.).
