Dr Srimathy Kesan, founder and CEO of SpaceKidz India, told Hindustan Times that “When we finalized the mission, we asked people to send in their names that will be sent to space. And, within a week we received 25,000 entries. Of these, 1,000 names were sent in by people from outside India. There is a school in Chennai that sent in the names of everyone. We decided to do this because it will spark the interest of the people in the mission and space science.”
