Pratap Gagare, a driver from a village in Maharashtra's Ahmednagar district, is a proud man today. His 14-year-old daughter, Vidya Gagare, along with 749 other girls studying in government schools across the country, came together to create the AzaadiSat 2.0 satellite for Chennai-based start-up Space Kidz India. AzaadiSat 2.0, which comprises 75 student experiments, is part of the payload aboard the ISRO's SSLV-D2, which is set to be launched on February 10 at around 9 am from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota.
