Resilience

See that stadium down there, yeah, it is Arsenal's Emirates football stadium in London!

Yeah, it may look like a normal flight experience on first impression. But, this one, right over here was one of the best moments of my life!

I had never travelled alone, not at least to any other part of the country (apart from college ofc), but this was the time I had to do it all by myself. I was going to attend the National Astronomy Meeting 2023, which was going to be held in Cardiff that year. The same stage where the "Battle of the white dwarfs" was fought between 2 of history's greatest-ever astrophysicists, Dr Arthur Eddington and Dr Subramanium Chandrasekhar, the same stage where Dr Albert Einstein and Dr Stephen Hawkings received their RAS Gold Medals. Feeling nervous? Yes. Feeling afraid to face the odds? Never. 

I was not just representing myself, but all the 36 hardworking members at Nebula and my country too. Sometimes, in research, the most important thing is to make a good network, to get some advice from some of the best people around the world, which in my case, was a bit too important. I have a different type of dream, a dream that is composed of both failures and successes, a dream which is not normally chosen by a normal 17-year-old in today's India. Startups are great, but how about a space-tech startup, nah, not the typical rockets and propulsion type, but how about exploring the universe, using some cameras (satellites)? Not gonna lie, almost every one of us has been interested in knowing the great "SPACE". Making that exploration dream, a reality is what we guys at Nebula are striving for. Dreaming, exploring and discovering the unknown lands is what humanity is for. 

We are using the littlest of our knowledge to do vast things, that humanity has never even thought of. Sounds a bit exaggerating right, yeah it may. But what is a dream, if it doesn't fear you? 

This is the starting of the realisation of our dream, no matter how hard it is, reaching the other end is what we have to work for! The NAM 2023 was just the trailer of what is coming for us, then came NSSS 2024 and now comes the IAC, the best of all. We are #NebulaSpaceOrg and we make dreams a reality here!
