Please tell that Raima has named the satellite 'Kalmasat' after the name of former President and scientist, APJ Abdul Kalam. This will be the first experimental satellite built by an Indian student, which NASA will send from the sounding rocket to space. This satellite was chosen through a competition named 'Cubes in Space'. Organized jointly by an organization called 'NASA' and 'I Doodle Learning'.

Rifat said that the mission of this satellite will be 240 minutes. This small satellite space will last for 12 minutes in the microscopic gravitational environment. Regarding the satellite, Rifat says, "The main function of the Satellite is to demonstrate the capability of 3D printed carbon fiber." Rifat said that his satellite is made up of rainforest carbon fiber polymer. He said, 'We have got some components from abroad and some have come from our own country.' At the same time, Riphith achieved major success in the field of space science by creating the world's smallest satellite.
