It is worth mentioning that Shaunak is a Bengali who gifted his wife ‘one acre’ of land on Mars on his first wedding anniversary. He bought the land last year from a private company in the United States. Exactly where his land is on Mars, latitude-longitude is measured and all theories of that land are sent to him from there. He also sent a possible design of the Chandrayaan toilet to NASA through a competition called ‘Lunar Lu Challenge’. Shaunak, who works in a private company, said, “I feel great. My name will go to Mars. I am very proud to be a Bengali. I have been waiting for this day for a long time. It is finally coming to an end today.
