2. NASA Sanskrit connection is an authentic one supported by an enormous amount of research and claims. However, there is no official statement by NASA and their approach for artificial intelligence which inclined towards natural languages, especially Sanskrit.

Sanskrit is regarded as the most ancient language in the world also termed as Deva-Vani (‘Deva’ Gods - ‘Vani' language) as it was believed to have been generated by the god Brahma who passed it to the Rishis (sages) living in celestial abodes, who then communicated the same to their earthly disciples from where it spread on earth. Sanskrit literature holds the privilege of being used in ancient poetry, drama, and sciences, as well as religious and philosophical texts. The sound of each of the 36 consonants and the 16 vowels of Sanskrit is fixed and precise since the very beginning. They were never changed, altered, improved or modified. The reason being its absolute perfection by its own nature.
Sanskrit is the most scientific language of the world. It has a rich tradition of Shastras that belong to different disciples like Ayurveda, mathematics, Yoga, Phonology and many more. I consider it as an eternal language since the language of Veda, Ramayana, Mahabhara, classical literature is Sanskrit and many writers of 21st century are activitely contributing for growth of language and literature. There isn't any era in which we don't find any work of Sanskrit. If Sanskrit writes continue their journey in the same way, we find many new works in Sanskrit in future also.
Sanskrit text has covered many aspects of human life. it is a rich knowledge bank dealing with many fields e.g. spiritualism, medical, horticulture, agriculture, communal aspects, human rights etc. Puranas and four vedas have vast knowledge about theses.

In the present scenario of COVID-19, the ayurveda has saved the life of millions of people, again credit goes to sanskrit and its heritage. Sanskrit study is a must.
