Milan, an eleven year old student from Los Angeles, won a seat on Zero Gravity when she entered SpaceKids Global's National Essay Competition earlier this year. The essay titled "Why I want to go to Space" had a different effect on Milan. Although she plans on being an engineer, she has no desire to go to space. Instead, she wants to solve space challenges here on Earth and help others achieve their goals in space.
Milan's essay titled "Why I don't want to go to Space" easily caught our attention!
We want to thank all the space expert judges who read all the essays and our partner ZeroG without whom this would never be possible!
