<h3 id="headline">Interesting Facts About Missle Man Of India</h3>
<ul>
<li>APJ Kalam was born on October 15, 1931, into a poor family. His father had only one boat to support his
family
</li>
<li>Kalam was a hardworking boy right from the beginning. At the tender age of five, he started selling
newspapers to help his father support the family. He did this job in the evenings after school. He also
spent a great deal of time on his studies.
</li>
<li>Kalam was fascinated by physics and mathematics.</li>
<li>Kalam missed an opportunity to become a fighter pilot for the Indian Air force. He was on the ninth spot
on the list, and there were only eight openings. The first eight shortlisted candidates were recruited.
</li>
<li>In 1960, Kalam became involved with DRDO’s Aeronautical Development Establishment.</li>
<li>In 1969, Kalam was made the project director for Satellite Launch Vehicles and was shifted to ISRO. The
project became successful, and India, under the directorship of Kalam, was able to launch the Rohini
satellite series into Earth’s orbit.
</li>
<li>Kalam was known as the ‘Missile Man’ of India due to his continued, successful work with ballistic
missiles and launch vehicle technology.
</li>
<li>Kalam also made significant contributions to the nuclear capabilities of India. The Pokhran -2 nuclear
tests (in 1998) were successful thanks to his organizational and technical support.
</li>
<li>Kalam was honored with many awards, including the highest civilian award in the country, the Bharat
Ratna (1997). His other awards include Padma Bhushan (1981) and Padma Vibhushan (1990).
</li>
<li> Interestingly, he was also honored with doctorates from 40 universities.</li>
<li><strong>Inspired by his life, a Bollywood movie was also produced with the title, I Am Kalam.</strong>
</li>
<li>Kalam is a source of inspiration for millions of people in India and around the world.</li>
<li>Kalam became the President of the largest democracy of the world –India – on July 25, 2002. He was known
as <strong>“the People’s President”</strong> because of his simple and down-to-earth attitude.
</li>
<li>e was once asked by a journalist how would he like to be remembered: as a scientist, a president or a
teacher. And he replied smilingly – “I want to be remembered as a teacher first and then as any other
person.”
</li>
<li>Kalam’s visit to Switzerland is commemorated as Science Day in the country. This declaration in his
honor was made by the Swiss government after the sad demise of this great personality.
