MTI 2020 was conducted online due to the Covid 19 pandemic.  It consisted of a skills test where the teams ran a solo match scored live by our referees.  Judge interviews were conducted virtually.  Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory's Space Sector provided the STEM Expo over livestream and did remote interviews for students for the Intern Networking Program.  Unique to this year's MTI was a Team's Choice Award where teams could vote for their choice of the best solution to the Skystone Challenge.
