Apadilangit Space Academy, bringing Malaysian children closer to space

Apadilangit Space Academy is a Malaysian provider of space science and technology education, with programmes aimed at children and students. Its name comes from apa di langit, Malay for "what is in the sky", which sums up the question it sets out to answer.

Programmes for young space explorers

Through its academy registration page, Apadilangit offers several kinds of programmes throughout this year:

Online classes such as Young Space Explorer let children from all over the country learn about the moon and objects in the sky without leaving home, while the space camps give them a hands-on experience.

Collaboration with MEASAT

On 24 November 2025, satellite company MEASAT Global Berhad announced a new collaboration with Apadilangit Space Academy, as part of its efforts to raise awareness of space science and technology. In its media statement, MEASAT described Apadilangit as one of Malaysia's leading space and technology education providers.

The collaboration started with the Malaysia Space Dream initiative. Students and members of the media at MEASAT took part in a Postcard to Space activity: they designed postcards using AI, and the postcards will be flown to the edge of space through Blue Origin's Club for the Future programme.

For a child, knowing that a postcard they made will reach space is hard to forget, and it may be the start of a lifelong interest in science.

How to join

The latest programme schedule and registration are on Apadilangit's academy site and its official social media accounts. MEASAT's full statement on the collaboration is in the MEASAT newsroom.
