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.
