Theme Explanation: "Zero Gravity, Infinite Possibilities"
Zero gravity isn't just a scientific condition, it's a powerful metaphor for breaking limits. When we think about space, we think about freedom from the constraints of Earth: gravity, borders, and even imagination. This theme invites us to explore how the absence of physical limitations can inspire boundless possibilities in science, technology, and human potential.
In a world where we are constantly reaching for what's next, space becomes a symbol of hope, innovation, and unity. “Zero Gravity, Infinite Possibilities” is about daring to think beyond, to envision futures where life beyond Earth is not just possible, but purposeful.
