“Mission 100 kft Will Lead to a Long Range of Experiment Prospects”: Dr G Madahavan Nair

KOCHI:
“The payload retrieval system Mission 100 kft developed by CUSAT students especially with the camera will lead to a long range
of experiment prospects regarding space”, said Dr G Madahavan Nair, former Chairman of Indian Space Research Organisation. He was inaugurating the CUSAT Space Expo, organized by Electronics and Communication Division of CUSAT School of Engineering at the
science seminar complex auditorium.

“The device will greatly contribute as it uses the same payload repeatedly, saving a huge amount of money and making the entire process highly economical”, Dr Madahavan Nair added. He also shared his school experience of making the model of an aircraft by using scrap and waste materials for a project which in fact influenced and motivated him so much.

While congratulating the students Timothy Simon Thomas (Mission Director), Joseph Jojo. A (Flight Director) and Arjun E.S.
(Sponsorship Head) and others who worked behind Mission 100 kft, he exhorted the students to go deep in to the basic science branches, which will greatly contribute to the development of a person as a space scientist. Registrar Dr K. Ajitha, School of Engineering
