An 11-year-old Indian student is the lone participant from the UAE who has got her two experiments approved for launch into space under a programme for budding young scientists.
Two experiments of Prerna Pai, a seventh grader at Sharjah's Delhi Private School, are among the 100 selected experiments that will be fired into space under the Cubes In Space Programme on June 26, Gulf News reported. The Cubes in Space Programme was launched in May and had invited students from around the world in the age group of 11-14 to devise experimental payloads for space.
"I had to think a lot when I learnt about this contest and sent them many proposals. My science teacher has always encouraged me to think out of the box and that inspired me.
