Honeywell Sponsors 17 Indian Students to US Space camp
320 students across 45 countries get a unique opportunity to train like an astronaut and explore STEM education at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center PUNE, BANGALORE, GURGAON, April 21, 2017 – Honeywell (NYSE: HON) today announced that 17 Indian children joined 320 students from 45 countries for a once-in-a-lifetime learning experience at the Honeywell Leadership Challenge Academy (HLCA). The unique leadership program was run for two consecutive weeks at the U.S. Space and Rocket Center (USSRC) in Huntsville, Alabama. AnshBhagania, from Pune, who attended HLCA said, “Launching model rockets and flying a fighter jet on a simulator was terrific. I never thought I could do that too. The more interesting part was to meet students of my age from different parts of the world. We are all great friends now. What could be better than this”?
HLCA aims to encourage excitement and engagement around science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) subjects for students between the ages of 16-18. Activities are delivered in fun and innovative ways to bring STEM studies to life.
“The act of bringing this global Honeywell community together with Space Camp allows these students to plan for a future of improving life on our planet and beyond,” said Dr. Deborah Barnhart, CEO and executive director, USSRC. “They bring the best of their diverse cultures to Space Camp, where they will use teamwork and technology to prepare them for a future they have yet to imagine.”
Interactive and experiential sessions around rocket designing, building, and testing; participation in simulated astronaut training, shuttle missions and a moon walk, infuse vigor and expands students’ learning curve. They also meet scientists, engineers, and former astronauts, who reinforce core leadership competencies and share their first-hand professional experiences. The program is designed to educate students on the importance of STEM in an ever-changing connected world.
Naomi Varghese, a 17-year-old student from Bangalore, said, “Standing next to a rocket, the step-by-step demonstration of rocket-building, and moonwalking like an astronaut were life-changing. I almost felt like I was in space.”
Echoing a similar sentiment, PranavKaushik from Delhi, said, “Meeting students from around the world who share the same passion for rockets, jets, space shuttles, and the moonwalk was extremely exciting. We learnt a lot from the experiences of scientists and astronauts. What’s really great is that the program combines science and engineering with fun and friendship for life.”
Since its launch in 2010, Honeywell, in partnership with the USSRC, has awarded 2,090 such scholarships to students. Scholarships are granted after a rigorous application and review process based on academic achievement and community involvement. Financial contributions from Honeywell and its employees fund the scholarships, which cover the cost of tuition, meals, accommodation, and program materials.
INDIA SPONSORSHIP
SPACE CAMP teachers were also honored in India. Tata Consultancy Services, India’s largest IT services company, and Education World, India’s pioneer education news and analysis magazine, annually select the country’s most innovative teachers.

Description: Hello! My name is Adrian, i am 18 years old and live just outside the city of Trondheim in the middle of Norway. From a young age i have always been fascinated by space and all its hidden mysteries. Not only space itself, but also rockets, satellites and all of the other technology involved. I also love making things and, using the tools and machines in our garage, i have done a few projects the last couple of years. When i don't do homework/schoolwork i usually spend my time on these projects or outdoors training. I have been doing a sport called "orienteering" since i was eight, and still do my best to acheive the best possible results in competition. Orienteering is a typical scandinavian sport where the goal is to run a course, with several controls, set on a map at the shortest amount of time. Its is demanding both physically and psycologial, and a lot of fun!
I am very happy to be chosen to go to the Europan Space Camp and i am really looking forward to it! At the European Space camp i hope to learn new exciting things about space and technology, but i am also looking forward to getting to know the other participants.
Yours sincerely, Adrian

Roommate description: Frøydis was quiet but really enjoyable to stay with. She was considerate, thoughtful and kind- especially when I had locked myself out! She gave me an insight into norwegian culture and I'm glad I got to stay with her. GauteHolen
From: Norway
Description: Hi, my name is Gaute and I'm from Oslo. This far I've mostly been interested in the physics of very tiny things, but I guess space and rockets are pretty cool too. In my space time, I enjoy snowboarding during the winter, traveling to warm places to complain about it being too warm, meeting people from new places and making music on my computer.
Roommate description: A great guy, really. For all the ladies out there: he doesn't snore. He had an open personality which cluld reach everyone, and I think we all saw how his good humor never failed to lighten the mood. Also, have you seen his dance moves? Damn, they are good. He is a very patient man as well. When I was feeling less healty than as healty a man should be, he was understanding of the situation, without making a scene out of it. And I really appreciated that. Great man, great roomate.Wouldn't have any other.
JakobKleinau
From: Norway
Description: Hello! My name is Jakob and I am a 18 years old boy from central Norway. In my spare time I like being with friends and play football. I also work a lot in a industrial company and I am making an education for a mechanic there.
Roommate description: He's an interesting guy. If he's saying something it's usually worth listening to, as it's either funny, leads to something funny, or is interesting in other ways. He's also a model roommate.

From: Norway Marie Bringsvor
From: Norway
Description: My name is Marie and I am 17 years old. I live in Sandnes, in the south of Norway. In my spare time, I like to ride horses, play the viola and read books. I love outdoor activities, and spend a great amount of time with my dog.
Roommate description: While I was sleeping, Marie walked in the middle of the Night in our room, saying the bus finally made it to Andoya. During the week we grow closer together and I realized that she has an awfully nice and warming personality. Huge respect towards her, that she stood up every morning early to go work out in the gym. And thanks again for waking me up, after shutting down the alarm twice… Even though we didn't do any group work together, we shared a lot of memories in our free time that we probably won't forget them that fast. I hope one day we will meet again wether it is in Norway or Germany or somewhere else. Take care Marie!
Martin Hellesøe
From: Norway
Description: I am 18 years old and will be doing my final year at Bergen Katedralskole International Baccalaureate after the the summer. My main focus is on maths, physics, chemistry and economics, and I hope to study engineering at university. I always try to acquire as much knowledge as possible, and thus much of my spare time is spent reading books (everything from university textbooks to fiction) and programming computers. In addition, i try to get in some exercise whenever possible. I am grateful to be accepted for ESC 2017. August can't come soon enough! Roommate description: He was such a nice roommate! It was really cool to have someone on the same page. We both slept right through the alarm a couple of times. And we both were kind of untidy, so I didn't feel that I was the only untidy. He is a really sweet guy, and always wakes up with kind of a smile. I felt a bit sorry because every single night I arrived when he was already sleeping, but I think he didn't really notice that much. I think that we didn't spend a lot of time in our rooms, but rather be somewhere else, but we could get a long very well.
Max Cao
From: Norway
Description: I am 18 years old and goes to Bergen Katedralskole. I take Physics, Mathematics and Chemistry. I am very interested in aeronautics and aerospace. In my free time, I play trombone in an orchestra.
Megan Poehler
From: New Zealand
Description: Hey :) My name is Megan, I'm 17 years old but I will be 18 by the camp. I'm from Inglewood, New Zealand, a quaint little town on the west coast of the North Island (essentially from the other side of the world). Currently, at least, I'm originally from the US and love travelling so I'd like to say I'm a citizen of the world. As most of us probably do, I enjoy Physics, Math and Astronomy, but I have a special love of Astrophysics/Cosmology. I'm so excited to meet all you guys and learn about rocket science!
Roommate description: Megan was a really nice roommate and we always managed to be on time. It was really cool to have a roommate from the other side of the world. We also had some good conversations about random stuff in the evenings. It was very interesting to discuss the differences between Norway and New Zealand with her as well as our shared annoyance for having to wake up early for morning gym. Moritz König
From: Germany
Description: Hey there, I'm Moritz from Germany. I'll be 18 years old, when we the camp takes place. I'm going to be in 12th grade next school year at the local high school in the small town in Germany I'm from. Of course I'm into science and engineering and enjoy those subjects at school. In my 10th grade I went abroad to the USA for an exchange year, which was the best decision. At my school I'm in a student Lego robotics team. We take part in the annual world wide competition called First Lego League alon with 30.000 other Teams. I already got to travel to Southafrica and to the United Kingdom with this Team. Next year I'm going to be the Team Coach and Mentor. In my freetime I do a lot of sport, manly triathlon. I also DJ, play the saxophone and work as a rescue swimmer at the local lake. I'm really looking forward to see you all and have one of the best weeks of our lives, having fun with rocketry
Roommate description: Having Moritz as a roommate was great. He was polite, helpful and easy to talk to. The mood was informal, and at least to my knowledge, he was fine with me being a little messy and unorganized. Over the course of the week, I got to know him quite well, and he turned out to be a great guy. He also showed off some of his DJ skills, hopefully the tunes won’t stay stuck in my head too long. Hope our paths will cross someday, and good luck in your future endeavors.
Rebecca Hampp
From: Switzerland
Description: Hi, my name is Rebecca and I'm 18 years old. I'm from Switzerland near Lucern and right now I'm finishing school. After that I want to go to university (ETH in Zurich), but first I will travel a while around the world. I think that I'm an open and much talking girl and I like maths and physics as much as making artistic gymnastics. I look forward meeting all of you and learning lots of new things in the ESC 2017. Sebastian Rimmer
From: United Kingdom
Description: 18, just finishing sixth-form in the UK, and am taking a gap year..Keen swimmer, skier, rugby and cricket player, and hoping to study aerospace engineering at uni. Looking forwards to meeting loads of new people, can't wait until August!
Roommate description: Sebastian was a great and always positive roommate, keeping the mood up despite me messing the room up and locking myself out a few times. With his amazing personality he created a relaxing and pleasant atmosphere, the few hours we were in our room. Sebastian was very easy to cooperate with, and also has a fantastic taste in music ;) Since I've never been to the UK before there is a lot of things that I don't know about when it comes to how it is to live there, but Sebastian was always eager to teach me about the tea-drinking life of an Englishman (in New Yo... Andøya!) I would 11/10 share a room again, and especially with such a handsome gentleman as Sebastian.
SondreNordmoen
From: Norway
Sverre Olsen
From: Norway Roommate description: Sverre was a really nice roommate to have during the week. There where no problems between us, and we had a nice time together. He could especially shine with some really nice knowledge in different cases, and I think that some people on the camp also remember him for his special skills in the card game mafia. In the early mornings he used to be a little sleepy, but that always disappeared after morning gym and breakfast.
Tabea Klein
From: Germany
Description: HI. I'm Tabea from Northern Germany. I am really looking foreward to meet all of you since I like to make new friends and to get to know different people. In my spare time I plav clarinet and piano in the local youth orchestra and other wind ensemlbes. Besides music, I like to do sports(canoeing, swimming, tennis or hand ball). Furthermore, I enjoy coaching little kids at the local kajaking club or to volunteer as a liason for the student exchange program AFS.
Whatever it is, I'm always doing something in my freetime and I almost never get bored. Can't wait to come to Norway soon. See y'all there.
Roommate description: Tabea is a really sweet and kind girl who was also the best room mate I could have asked for! We had many funny conversations where we compared our countries. Tabea is cheerful and always in a good mood – I will be forever grateful for her patience when I came crashing in at two a.m. the first night. She is a very smart and intellect girl, and I really hope I will meet her again soon :)
Tara-ElènTilrem
From: Norway
Description: My name is Tara-Elèn and I'm 17 years old. I'm from a small place called Ørland in central Norway. I will start my last year at upper secondary school autumn 2017. I like physics, especially everything related to how the universe works. In my spare time I do gymnastics and read. I mostly read fantasy and Sci-fi. I also like to watch tv-series and movies. I also enjoy watching interesting documentaries about space. It will be fun meeting everyone at ESC17.
Roommate description: I had a great time with Tara. She was a very sympathic and open roommate. We had lot of fun to build a little model rocket together and to launch it.
Tessa Hiscox
From: New Zealand
Roommate description: Tessa was a really great room mate. She was neither loud or messy:) With her great, positive and energetic personality she made a lot of people laugh and smile during the camp. Her great passion for space and rockets will bring her far in life (maybe all the way to Mars?). She is also very brave, since she never hesitated when we were going for a swim in the (!!cold!!) ocean. She even went for a swim in the middle of the night! She is really cool, I would not mind having her as a room mate again :)
Thomas Vreugdenhil
From: Spain
Description: Hi everyone, I´m a Dutch student currently living in Tenerife, a Spanish island close to Africa. I´m 17 years old, and about to start my last year of High School. I´m in an Science-Engineering option, including Physics, Tecnical Drawing and Engineering. After that, I´m looking to become either a Ship Captain or an Astrophysicist. Besides that, I love traveling whenever I have possibility. Also I love dancing, so don´t be surprised if you see me dancing in middle of the hallway, and, to my future roommate, you´ll see me dancing A LOT. I´m very excited to get to know you all! See you soon.
VaniaVicenzi
From: Switzerland
Description: My name is VaniaVicenzi and I am 20 years old. I was born in Germany but I live in Switzerland, in the Italian side, and last year I've finished high school in Lugano. I've participated to Science and Youth with the help of my astronomic schoolwork about exoplanets, and I've also participated to two ESO Camps in Val d’Aosta, in Italy, where I discovered my passion for astronomy. In fact, next year I'm going to study physics at ETH in Zürich because I hope to become an astronomer.
Team Space Camp
Astrid Prestegård
Description: Astrid joined the team after being a participant in 2015. Being the webmaster of the Team she takes care of the ESC webpage making sure everything runs smoothly - even on Internet Explorer! When Astrid is not in front of the computer, you will usually find her on top of a mountain; hiking, skiing or taking Instagram shots others can only dream of. This outdoor girl climbs mountains like nobody’s business! Although she is from the south of Norway she has managed to cover the rest of the country fairly well! After a year filled with outdoor adventures in northern Norway under her belt, Astrid is now in Trondheim at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology studying Physics and Mathematics. Bo Willem Woelfert
Description: Bo joined the team after participating in 2016. He is training to become the master of public relations and all things graphic. He’s currently studying mechanical engineering at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology and having his mind blown in math lectures.
If you ever need any name suggestions for rockets (or anything actually), you should get your hands on this semi- Norwegian, semi-German puffin enthusiast, as he will always have a ton off the top of his head. This will also most likely result in a lively chat, which he is also great for.
EoghanGilleran
Description: Eoghan is the head of team spacecamp, and by far also the most international representative one could imagine. His name is more Irish than previously thought possible, his mouth craves Mexican nachos and Norwegian brown cheese alike. He joined the team after we found him stranded on the beach shortly before the 2014 camp, and convinced the participants that he was one of them. Even though you'd best be advised to beware of this smooth-talking islander's accidental dancing routines, he is in general a concentrate of joy, sharing tabboo breaking recipies, including the much frowned upon Double Decker Cheesy Chocolate Super Surprise.
Ingrid Marie EndresenKjelseth
Description: Ingrid joined Team Space Camp after being a participant in 2013. Being from the deserted northern Norway, she compensated for her lack of human contact growing up by moving to Oslo to study astrophysics at university. Her field of study might have something to do with her out-of-this-world great personality, and some say she accidentally travelled faster than light during one of her runs at Andøya last summer. It’s very easy to spot Ingrid in her natural habitat at Andøya Space Center, just look for a tall blonde running around with a unicorn t-shirt and a camera around her neck. She is also a true Viking, so if you can’t find her at the Spce Center, she might taking a refreshing dip in the Arctic Ocean for the fifth time that day. Oh, and if you ever need chest-bumping tips, Ingrid is the person to ask. In the team Ingrid is responsible for all things money- related, like budgets, accounting and stopping Christoffer from spending $200 000 on jedi training for the team.
Nina Marie Thomsen
Description: Nina joined the team after being a participant in 2015. She is from the beautiful city of Sandnes(not Stavanger!) in the south western part of Norway. Currently she is studying experimental physics in St. Andrews in Scotland. In the team Nina is responsible for managing the sponsorship funds so that we can have camp. When she is not doing that she tends to enjoy to go on adventures, fight bad guys with her badass karate and CrossFit skills(don’t get on her bad side), or spin 360 degrees around her axis whilst trying to find a geocache. Rannveig Marie Færgestad
Description: Rannveig joined the team after being a participant in 2013. No one knows where she came from, but myths say she came down with a rocket at Andøya after a heavy meteor shower, from an alien planet. Either that or she's from the east of Norway. Those two usually get confused.
Rannveig's a special breed indeed. She has the hair of a mermaid, legs of a giraffe, and brains like Thomas Edison mixed with Katy Perry. Her laughter is like a transmittable disease (which you will all catch during Camp) and she's a great representative for almost everything Norwegian - Sporty, blonde and in love with Freia milk chocolate. The only thing missing is a dialect. If you find it, please send us an email and you will be highly rewarded.
In the team she plays the unreplaceable part as press contact and creative director of most graphical things. The Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim was lucky enough to get their hands on her, so in her sparetime when she's not devoted to ESC, she studies mechanical engineering here.
TiiaTikkala
Description: Tiia is a great combination of creative, artsy and brains, abilities she is already putting to use as the new treasurer of Team Spacecamp and another great mind behind the upcoming camps.ne of the two newest members of Team Spacecamp, joining after participating in 2016. She recently graduated high school in her home country Finland where she got the studied to get the best dance moves in the team. She is now looking forward to studying for a degree in physics (or even more awesome dance moves).
