Hi all, I'm excited to share the completion of my computation-based astronomy project, conducted by KRITTIKA club of astronomy at #IITBombay. Over the course of this project, I utilized data from the #Gaia satellite 🛰 to determine the age, metallicity, and distances of various star clusters✨. I want to thank Aditya Saran and Aryan Kumar for their guidance and mentorship throughout the project 🙂. #Astronomy🚀 #Research #StellarClusters #DataAnalysis

"Excited to announce my completion of the STTP on Advances in Astronomy! 🌌 Equipped with cutting-edge knowledge, I'm ready to navigate the vast expanse of the universe with renewed passion and understanding. #Astronomy #STTP #NeverStopExploring"

🔭 *Revolutionizing astronomy, one milestone at a time!* The Vera C. Rubin Observatory just took a huge step forward by successfully coating and installing its **8.4-meter primary/tertiary mirror**, an engineering marvel with two surfaces integrated into a single structure. This breakthrough moves us closer to the observatory's mission of capturing celestial light, enabling groundbreaking discoveries through the upcoming **Legacy Survey of Space and Time** (LSST). ➡️ The real question: How will this advanced optical system reshape our understanding of the universe? Let’s discuss! #ScienceInnovation #RubinObservatory #SpaceTech Link in the first comment.

Astronomy, the awe-inspiring study of celestial objects and phenomena beyond Earth's atmosphere, has long captivated the imagination of youngsters around the globe. From the mesmerizing beauty of the night sky to the mind-boggling scale of the universe, astronomy ignites a sense of wonder and curiosity in young minds. Through telescopes, planetarium visits, and educational programs, astronomy offers an immersive journey into the cosmos, unveiling mysteries of distant galaxies, stars, and planets. Beyond its scientific significance, astronomy inspires a sense of perspective, humility, and interconnectedness with the vastness of space. By nurturing a passion for exploration and discovery, astronomy empowers youngsters to dream big, think critically, and reach for the stars in their pursuit of knowledge and understanding. #snsinstitutions #snsdesignthinkers #designthinking

Revisiting myself two year back when I was exploring space technologies and theoretical astronomy. I participated in this year long olympiad, ISSO, Indian Space Science Olympiad conducted by Edumithra Event Mangement. I learnt many concepts regarding astronomy. Out of which, the black hole theory, Quasars and stellar formation are some things which intrigued me the most. Finally after a lot of research work and 3 long rounds over the span of an year I managed to secure AIR 12 rank. ☺️✌️ trying to achieve more and pursue my current interest computer science in harmony with astronomy. #isso #space #astronomy #olympiad #rockets #science #nebula
