Indian Students Headed To NASA

M3M Foundation has selected six students through a science competition to join YMRD's "Team Kaizel" for NASA's Human Exploration Rover Challenge 2024. The foundation, in collaboration with local district administrations in selected Indian districts, organised science exhibitions. The selected students will be part of  ‘Team Kaizel’ and will fly for the challenge, providing them with a unique international exposure opportunity. 

The M3M Foundation promotes education, healthcare and skill development in India, fostering science and technology-interested talent. The NASA's Human Exploration Rover Challenge (HERC) is an annual engineering design competition that challenges students worldwide to design, build and test human-powered rovers capable of navigating challenging terrains.

The M3M Foundation is supporting YMRD's ‘Team Kaizel’, an NGO-supported team of young scientists and researchers from various Indian districts. The team, consisting of students from Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Odisha, Bihar and Maharashtra, will represent India at NASA's Human Exploration Rover Challenge. The foundation is partnering with district administration to select students from these districts who share a passion for science and innovation, offering them an international exposure opportunity through science exhibitions and STEM engagement.
