    Greetings
    We have just seen the post regarding the enrollment and affixation of intent to compete forms. Though the dead line has been crossed, is there any other way that we i.e., our team can still enroll into the competition?Please guide us.
    Thanks and Regards

    The intent to compete submission deadline passed on September 15. If you have a legitimate reason for missing, you can try contacting SpaceX directly, but it's probably a long shot.

    Try to find names of specific people at SpaceX in charge of this project (through LinkedIn, etc) and email them directly. Put together a solid argument and present a legitimate reason in order to appeal to them as to why you should be allowed to enter after the deadline.

    The fact that you are all the way in India might work in your favor.

    I think it's going to be tough at this point, but it won't hurt you to try.
