This satellite, made of printed polyetherimide thermoplastic, has eleven sensors, which will help in research on microgravity.
India has become self-reliant: This satellite is to be launched by NASA.
Shubham Srivastava, a third-year mechanical engineering student of Chandigarh University, is also associated with the ‘CU-SAT’ mission, which is involved in the construction of student satellites.
Shubham explains, “We have a whole team consisting of students from different branches of engineering. Former ISRO Senior
Apart from the scientists, the experts of TSC company are giving training to us. A lot has been learned about satellites, their designing, coding, geo-information, etc. working in the field of astronomy
I had a wish for a long time, which is getting fulfilled with this.
The growing interest in space science
Lavanya, a Class VI student from Guntur, Andhra Pradesh, G. Giri Vardhan, a Class VIII student from Kendriya Vidyalaya, Hyderabad, and B. Sethu Vardhan, a Class XI student, have a keen interest in space science. All three located in Guntur
He was associated with ‘Children Space Club’ and used to be involved in various activities there.
It was from here that they came to know about ‘ATL Space Challenge-2021’ and all three decided to participate in it. Government High at Golconda
The school’s physics teacher Anand Babu became his mentor and under his guidance, he submitted his idea under the theme ‘Explore Space’.
Anand Babu says, “I connect with kids through Google Meet every day. We discuss amongst ourselves. I try to answer their questions.
Today children are showing great interest in subjects like space and astronomy. But due to a lack of sufficient knowledge of these subjects, they are not able to move ahead in it.
Unknown to the level competitions. However, Atal Tinkering Lab is playing a major role in promoting grassroots innovation in the country. Children are learning to experiment from a young age.
Encouraging innovation with the ATL Space Challenge.
Atal Innovation Mission, NITI Aayog in association with Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) and Indian Space Research Organization ‘ISRO’ with the aim of promoting innovation in the space sector and motivating the youth to find innovative solutions to the problems of this sector.
Recently ‘ATL Space Challenge 2021’ has been launched. In this, children of classes VI to XII had to submit their ideas under different themes.
School children from across the country showed great enthusiasm in this. Technical facilities and mentorship are being provided to the children through Atal Tinkering Lab.
According to Deepali Upadhyay, Project Director, Atal Innovation Mission, ATL Space Challenge has been designed for students, mentors, and teachers of all schools in the country, not only with schools with ATL labs but also with non-ATL schools.
