This story is a sureshot demonstration of the fact that how all the brilliant prospects of a brilliant boy have been spoilt over over zealousness of the family, local authorities and politicians.
What are they trying to prove? If everybody is keeping mum that means this should have been kept confidential.
If NASA and the govt are quiet and not making any comments, they must be having their own reasons for it. The fact that boy is brilliant and has been rewarded should be enough for him and he should work on his future career prospects and not seek publicity now even if at the cost of secrecy and confidentiality.
