One delegation from thirteen Mas Camps: cadets who do the build, Territory Ambassadors who recruit, mentor and chaperone them, and mission advisors who hold the relationship with Space Kidz India.
Secondary-school student scientists selected by their Mas Camp. Six months of pre-departure curriculum at home, then hands on flight hardware in New Delhi. Each returns as the founding member of a Space Explorers Club at her school.
One or two named adults per nation, responsible for recruitment, mentoring, the pre-launch curriculum and chaperoning in New Delhi. This is a safeguarding role and a professional credential, not a promotional title.
The CSS Council and Space Kidz India liaison who hold the mission relationship, the curriculum standard and the reporting back to funders.

CADET · CONFIRMED
GRENADA MAS CAMP
Grenada's first cadet on a space mission of any kind. Her focus is the ground-station side: the antennas and telemetry that let an island talk to its own satellite. Put forward by Ms. Tamara Savoury.
No cadet travels without one. Ambassadors run selection in their nation, deliver the pre-launch curriculum, hold the safeguarding responsibility on the ground in New Delhi, and carry the programme home afterwards through the school clubs.
Ambassadors are not Cosmic Captains. Captains are DJs and media voices who drive an island's fundraising on the campaign side. Ambassadors are the named adults accountable for the girls.
Flights, visas, the nine-day mission window, and the training that comes before it, for cadets and ambassadors alike. The more the camps raise, the more of the delegation travels.
