Welcome to the website of our group, Apollo.

About Us

The name of this project is based on the mythical ancient Greek god Apollo. Apollo is mainly known as the god of the younglings, arts and light. He is lesser known as the god of the plague and epidemics, which he brought upon the people by shooting poisoned arrows from his famous bow. Contradictory, Apollo is also the god of the healing arts and medicine, like his son Aesclepius. It is for this reason that we have chosen to call ourselves Apollo. We also hope to be as successful as the NASA project of the same name.

Hello World

Welcome to our new site. The site is built with Hugo using the Prologue theme (although heavily modified), hosted on Github Pages.
