With India celebrating its historic 75th year of Independence, 75 schools across the country were selected to be part of the futuristic project, where students were provided with practical exposure to space science. To also promote the government’s “Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao” initiative, each team from the 75 schools consisted of 10 girl students.
The students were provided with a kit to build the satellite from the Space Kidz India. They were trained to program the kit through virtual sessions. The programmed kit was then sent to the Space Kidz India, where it will be integrated and prepared for launch on the 76th Independence Day – commemorating the scientific journeys the country has independently embarked on.
