Events, Nature, Science, Technical | 0 comments

Spent some solid time at Planetarium on Sunday evening. We were there to attend International Year of Astronomy- 2009 inauguration organized by  ABAA. We were bit late and even missed the session on “how to build your own telescope”. Hopefully we get to see the video on this session at ABAA website shortly.

Stars and Planetary systems, Consolations are always interesting topics to know. We attended ‘Know your stars” program in the theater.  Mr. Chandrashekar from ABAA explained us about planets, Nebulas, galaxies visible to our eyes or via telescopes and he also explained how to identify few constellations.
