Astronomy and astrophysics take us on a journey to understand how stars are born, how galaxies evolve, and what lies behind the mysteries of black holes, dark matter, and the cosmos itself. With India’s space missions like Chandrayaan, Mangalyaan, AstroSat, and Aditya-L1 making global headlines, there has never been a better time to dive into space science. This workshop is specially designed for undergraduate and postgraduate students to discover the wonders of the universe through interactive lectures, demo sessions, and open discussions. From the solar system to cosmology and cutting-edge space missions, the sessions will spark curiosity, boost scientific thinking, and open doors to exciting opportunities in higher studies and research.
This workshop is being jointly organised by Jai Prakash University (JPU), Chapra and the Inter-University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics (IUCAA), Pune (funded by IUCAA) in offline mode only.
Explore the wonders of the universe with us — dive into the science that powers telescopes, space missions, and cosmic discoveries.
