Students from India, Pak create space craft for Earth to Mars
SPACECRAFT
New Delhi, Feb 2 (PTI) Notwithstanding the chill in
Indo-Pak ties, students from both the countries have come
together in designing an innovative crew ship to travel from
Earth to Mars and jointly compete with students from other
countries at NASA.
Under the Sixteenth Annual International Space
Settlement Design Competition, sponsored by National
Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and Boeing, school
students from Lahore and Delhi have prepared a novel project
on future of human civilisation in Mars.
The project on crew ship to travel from Earth to Mars
reflects an innovative idea of people of the Earth going to
Mars by this space craft.
"You can go from Earth to Mars by a space craft. You
can leave the space craft in the orbit between Earth and Mars
and it will cross the orbit of Mars from where people can
safely go to Mars," said Sanaa Nusreid, a student from Lahore
Grammar School.
As per the project, 8,800 people, including 2,300 crew
members and 6,500 travellers, can go Mars in the space craft.
Fifteen students from Lahore and 12 students from
Amity International School here have designed this project.
These students met US Ambassador Timothy J Roemer here
Tuesday.
"This group of Indian and Pakistani students are
together designing the future of our civilisation – one with
few limitations of geographical boundaries. I congratulate
them on their joint achievement, wish them well in their
travels to NASA, and look forward to hearing about their
experiences in the United States," said Roemer. MORE PTI BKM
