SRM University Prepares for Second “Moon Mission”

June 30, 2015

SRM University, the partner institution of ELS/Chennai recently announced work on a project that would see a satellite sent to the moon!

This is the second “moon mission” for SRM University. In 2011 the university launched the SRMSAT, a nano-satellite made by students to study the upper-atmosphere.

In early May 2015, the founder and chancellor of the University T.R. Pachamuthu told The New Indian Express “[The Satellite] will have an on-board ignition system and will move to lunar orbit in about three months, once released in the polar orbit.”

ELS is currently offering a 25% scholarship to students wishing to study English for Academic Purposes at ELS/Chennai. The offer is valid for enrollment before December 2015. For more information visit ELS.edu/Chennai.
