ABOUT US

With the mission of exploring extraterrestrial land, a group of undergraduate students from Cochin University of Science and Technology gave wings to this extraordinary team on 25th September 2019. Within a short period, the team started to be recognized internationally in the field of celestial exploration and space research. Our team holds together six subteams: Science Team, Software Team, Electronics Team, Mechanical Team, Media & Outreach Team, and Sponsorship Team. The awards and laurels we have earned despite being held back on financial grounds are proof of our consistency.
