Fifteen-year-old student reports collaboration with NASA on a space mission project
Viktor Giannikopoulos, a 15-year-old student who has been participating in science competitions since age 13, has claimed he is collaborating with NASA on an interstellar space mission project. The student stated that he submitted his proposal to the agency, which involves using modern technology to succeed the 1977 Voyager missions, with a target implementation date around 2035. His project aims to reach the interstellar space currently occupied by the Voyager probes and explore other solar systems, specifically mentioning the Camelopardalis constellation. He plans to integrate his interests in medicine and astrophysics in his future career. While media reports highlight this collaboration, the project is described by the student as an initiative he is working on through communication with the agency. No official confirmation from NASA regarding the scope of this partnership has been provided in the reports.
