Cosmic Forums

The session took participants on an interactive journey across the vast scales of the universe, from our familiar solar system to the grand cosmic structures beyond. Through hands-on calculations and engaging visualizations using tools like Stellarium and Universe Sandbox, attendees explored planetary distances, dynamics, and the immense scale of celestial systems.

The session bridged clarity and curiosity, helping participants visualize and calculate cosmic phenomena while sparking deeper interest in exploring the universe on their own. By the end, they had not only grasped the vastness of space but were inspired to keep climbing further up the cosmic ladder.

This talk delved into how observing the universe through different bands of the electromagnetic spectrum unveils distinct facets of the same cosmic event. Participants explored how multi-wavelength data, from radio waves to gamma rays, together paint a more complete picture of astrophysical phenomena.

Through an engaging case study, the session demonstrated how correlating data across various channels can transform our understanding of complex cosmic processes. It offered attendees a glimpse into the power of multi-spectral astronomy and how modern astrophysics leverages this approach to decode the mysteries of the cosmos.
