World’s lightest and smallest Satellite


  • Mohammed Rifath Sharukh, a 17 year old young scientist made the World’s Lightest and Smallest Satellite!
  • Pallapatti born, Karur district; Tamilnadu.
  • NASA organized a competition. Above 8000 students from 57 countries were participated. He was the only Indian who was selected out of 80 participants.
About his Satellite:
  • He named the Satellite ‘ KALAM SAT’ in memory of Dr. A.P.J. Abdul kalam.
  • It weighs only 64 grams.(0.1 kg and 3.8 cm in size)
  • “Space Kidz India” supported him.
  • It was a complete Indian made Satellite.
Uses:
  • It will be used to detect the radiation in Space, and the changes in the atmosphere.
  • It will stay only 240 minutes on space. Then, automatically falls in in to the specified ocean. Finally, take out for research.
Launch:
  • On June 22nd, 2017 it will launch through SRK Rocket.
  • If they launch succesfully, then it will be used to Agriculture and monitor the Weather.
  • I wondered when I sawMohamed Sharukh’s 12th Board Exam Mark Details:
  • In Mathematics: 92/200.
  • In Physics: 89/200.(Practical Mark: 50)
(For the rest, he written only for 39 marks in theory! (Less than my mark!)
  • He is one of the inspirations to the Students, who scored average marks in their Board Exams.
  • For Parents: Marks don’t determine your Children, who they are. Every Children are born with talents.
This will be the first time Indian student’s experiment will be flown by NASA. (Really appreciable!)
