ANTHARIKSHA
AN INTERSTELLAR JOURNEY
EPISODE 1
It's always the small things that give the most happiness like gazing at the night sky. We all realize that we are a teeny tiny part of this gargantuan universe and our lives are heavily dependent on planetary positions and star patterns. This gave birth to a new initiative called 'Anthariksha'. The sole idea of this program was to integrate Science and Indian culture. The attendees thoroughly enjoyed the narration of our wonderful host Nitin Karthik as they were taken on a journey to the sun, the moon and how they influence our panchanga, our maasas, festivals and more. Each one of them also carried informative handouts in addition to a poster of our Indian scientists.
