What comes to mind when you hear Moon/Mars human exploration, Deep space engineering or exo-planets? Cool words, right? But apart from being fancy, what do these mars/moon missions and deep space exploration missions hope to learn?
Don't have an answer? Not to worry, it's quite common for people to get overwhelmed by the sheer novelty of outer space that they forget to think about why each mission is launched.
Each mission is the culminated effort of many people over several years and is optimized to give us the best insights into questions that advance our knowledge of the known universe.
There are currently several projects lined up for takeoff all over the world. What do they hope to uncover? What are the next big questions we hope to answer?
To unveil these answers and more IIT Delhi and American Centre's iHub cordially invite you all to a talk by Ann Devereaux on the 30th of September at 2 PM. Ann works with NASA's Jet propulsion laboratory and was closely involved with the curiosity rover which launched in 2011 and works on its cousin project, which is on stand by for launch in 2020.
So mark the date and listen to one of the leading engineers working to improve our understanding of the known universe.

Date - 30th September
Time - 2:00 PM
Venue - LH121

i) Introduction to Engineering & Programme
ii) Communication Skills/ Seminar
iii) Design/ Practical Experience
iv) Any other NGU component

Please find below the form link to provide your views on the issue along with possible solutions.

In 2018, iGEM IIT Delhi has chosen to work on the problem of antibiotic resistant bacteria. We aim to solve this problem using Recombinase. This can be used in HIV research and can delete the harmful parts of DNA of viruses.

However, we need help in order to achieve our goals. Synthetic Biology is incredibly expensive and requires cutting edge equipment as well as significant running costs.

We are looking for funds to help bring our project to life. Support our crowdfunding campaign and help us save over 23,000 lives each year.
