"Astronomy compels the soul to look upwards and leads us from this world to another." - Plato  

Everyone is fascinated by the sight of mighty rockets being launched into space. A sense of excitement, pride and curiosity comes along when the ignition countdown starts. With this goal in our minds, an engaging and interactive astronomy session was conducted by ‘Space Explore Workshop’ for the students of classes I and II where students participated in diverse activities.

The session focused on teaching Space Science and Astronomy to students through practical hands-on experience, which helped them develop their knowledge base as well as life skills. The workshop offered a wonderful experience to students as they learnt Comet Making through dry ice, mud, soy sauce and some ammonia. Hydro Rocketry demonstrated basic principles of rocket propulsion. Throughout this engaging session, students gained valuable insights into the science behind rocket launch, understanding the intricate interplay of force. This diverse range of activities not only deepened students’ understanding of astronomy but also ignited a passion for the mysteries of the universe.

The workshop aimed to bridge the gap between space science and other academic disciplines. It was an enriched learning experience, loaded with fun for all.
