Celebrating International Year of Astronomy !!!


Certainly declaration of 2009 as International Year of Astronomy has sparked a new interest in Astronomy and those wary of the sciences will definitely be attracted once again to this mighty realm. With this in mind, we @ Astronomy Club are organizing a number of events mainly discussions , presentations and dome shows @ the TMA Pai planetarium. Beginning this Friday, 27th March we conducted a dome show followed by an Astro Quiz. Dome show seemed to be the perfect start for such an occasion. The winner of Astro Quiz, Vikrant , 4th year MIT received the book "The Elegant Universe" as prize.
In the upcoming weeks, we plan to concentrate more on the presentations with an aim to impart knowledge and even hold more group discussions.
All that remains is your participation...
