He has done a detailed research on the subject and his study’s outcome has been corroborated by NASA.

Parteek has also achieved a rare distinction of figuring in the Guinness Book of World Records as the youngest microbiologist to have increased human lifespan by 10-15 years. He has also bagged the prestigious job of a senior microbiologist at NASA at a salary of Rs 1.65 lakh per day.

Talking about his project to The Tribune, Parteek said, “I did a research on the subject and put it on NASA’s website for study. To my astonishment, I soon got a mail from NASA stating that their scientists had experimented on the basis of my research and found it to be true.”

Parteek said under his project, he studied that if the upper shell of a human body is replaced with that of a tortoise’s, then humans can live longer by at least 10-15 years.

He was invited to NASA by its president on May 30. A special chartered flight was flown down to take him. There he participated at 43 meetings with NASA scientists and underwent five tests and became the first person to clear them in one go.

He was offered a job at NASA, which he is free to take up within the next five years.

“As a child, I had seen both my parents being constantly ill and dearly wished there was something that would help them live longer,” Parteek said.

“When I was in Class V, one day I casually told my father that a tortoise can live 200 years and humans generally live about 70 years on an average. If the life-extending substance is taken out of tortoise and put into a human body, it might help humans live longer. That idea got stuck in my head and forced me to study the subject deeply when I grew up,” said Parteek.

A medical student, Parteek scored 87.8 per cent marks in Class XII besides being the AFMC state topper. In AFMC, Parteek’s all-India rank is 7 and in CBSE PMT, he was placed third in the city with an all-India ranking of 152.

“I want to serve my nation and get recognition for my motherland on the world map. I am still confused about the future course of action,” remarked Parteek.
