Budha Dal Public School students brought laurels to the city & the nation when they won the 11th and 12th International Space Settlement Design Competition organized by the American Institute of Aeronautics & Astronautics at NASA's Kennedy Space Centre in Florida in the year 2004 and 2005. At the competition the students, all 14 to 18 years of age were given a project, the parametres and were asked to design a settlement in space for 5500 people. The settlement will be operated by Robots. These Robots were called 'Help bots' and were designed to do house hold work, construction work, maintenance etc. The settlement was designed in the shape of a tube (torus) with a central region connected to the outer ring by four linkage rods. It was designed to have a zero gravity environment and will be provided with a commercial centre, residential areas, power plant and water treatment facility. It was a feat achieved in 43 hours of continuous endeavour & perseverance.
