Astronomy can be aptly claimed as the oldest branch of Science. It was born with man. With his ability to understand the things and nature around him. As the centuries passed, his intellect unfolded and discovered more of this infinite beauty, we call "Universe". The study of deep sky objects. The never ending Universe, Supernovas, Pulsars, White Dwarf stars, the system of planets, galaxies, Black Holes, and a lot more objects which occupy the space. One can be a tycoon in Astronomy, if one has the potential to think beyond the power of imagination. The way Copernicus and Einstein did.

There are a number of astronomy freaks in and around India. Those having a great power of understanding and the creativity to imagine beyond the unimaginable.
