Event Name:
Observing Moon and Jupiter through Telescope
Event Description:
How many times have you thought about how cool Saturn's
rings are? Probably not recently. But we were so curious when
we were kids. Life happens, but that shouldn't take away from
us the wonder and curiosity that drives us. Take a break from
life, and come look at the stars, moon, and Jupiter(depending
on the angle of alignment) through a telescope on the
occasion of World Space Week celebrated from Oct 4th-10th

Report on the Results:
There were like only 7-8 people on the first day and while
I was upset that not many turned in, was glad that the
number wasn't zero, because this was first of it's kind event.
The next three days were interrupted by rains.
And the last two days there were a lot of people who visited
and saw through and enjoyed it thoroughly, and the skies
were clear too so could see moon and Jupiter along with it's
4 moons!! I loved the experience and had fun setting it up,
answering the questions and looking at the curiosity few had
There's no one in this city who owns a telescope so this was
something exciting and new for them, while the people who
came in were only at a radius of 1-2 km max, there was a lot
more people whom I couldn't reach. But in all this was a
really nice experience and realized how there's a lack of
knowledge & important it is to outreach about space science
because it's something not just about the universe and it's
mystery but also about all the satellites, research that is
helping us back here on earth.
