Almost all that is known in astronomy is identified through light. Today, we can analyze light of
distant bodies to learn more about them – What they are made of, how hot they are and how fast
they are moving. Light is constantly bringing stories about distant objects to Earth. -
Nuclear Chemistry has recently revolutionised medicine. It has allowed use of radioactive
elements to peer into the human body without surgery. Get to learn about this. -

Surveying the stars to our cosmic address.
-
We take an exciting look at the differences between planets, moons, asteroids,comets, meteors, and meteorites. We then discuss early ideas of our cosmic ad-dress, that is, our location.
-
Before embarking on an adventurous journey to learn the Science of Optics, let us trace the road to our contemporary knowledge of Optics!
-
Where does heat come from?
Andrew talks about the amazing science behind how heat is created. -
Imagine the crash of thunder, voices of friends, the rustling of leaves, drops of water, sounds of machines, animals, and musical instruments. All these provide sounds that reach our ears and provide us with information. Sound plays a vital role in communication. Let’s learn the fundamentals of sound.
-
Paul shares on how to think like a scientist, how to question and how to see the Universe. Can we understand Science through Art?
How important is Science communication? -
X-ray astronomy offers a very different view of our universe. This way of looking at the
skies has brought has brought into focus, exploding stars, active galaxies, hot young stars
and high energy physics. -
Have you ever wondered why 2+2 = 4?
Why do you even believe it is true?
So, what is mathematics then?
We do know that it works!
There are Planets discovered using mathematics.
But how do we even define it? Can you touch mathematics? Probably not.
So, how can something not physical describe the Universe? -
The Physical Sciences Of Earth.

When Apollo Astronauts travelled to the moon, they looked back on
Earth, and saw a tiny blue-and-white ball floating in Space. It was just it.
And that view, conveyed as never before just how fragile and small our
planet really is, in what seems to be an endless Universe. -
Did you know that the calendar we use today is the product of patient study and constant trial and error?
Let’s understand how the calendar came about. -
Because of those, whose imaginations are driven by wonder and are not conforming to the restrictions of our contemporary World. Our knowledge of the Cosmos is increasing at an unprecedented rate. Perhaps, it is a time, that future historians will look back upon as a Golden age of discovery. And they shall remember, "It is those times when our ancestors first turned their telescopes skyward."

Imagine the beauty of a sunset, exquisite if not gorgeous colours of the rainbow, flamboyant views of autumn leaves and twinkling stars marching as they scream out their glitter. How quaint that the perception of colour causes us to deeply appreciate the beauty of nature. Although Men have been aware of colour since the ever dawn of the unknown, yet, its nature remained a mystery until only the seventeenth century. Thus, our understanding of colour adds greatly to our knowledge of the Universe.

This is a phenomenological timetable of highlights in the history of Astronomy.

Did you know that simple Astronomy played an important role in how ancient people lived? In the early ages, the absence of search engines meant that thinking was an indispensable feature of mankind.
In the modern World, cognitive consequences upon the presence of search engines could be ambiguous. However, it cannot be denied, this has only marred the ability to solve problems by just thinking. Of course, you can always search that online. -
For centuries, it remained a mystery, to fathom the nature of light.
What is light made of? Could the speed of light be finite, infite or even
instantaneous? Questions like these remained a ‘nightmare‘ to some of our
deeply divided boffins of all time. But with time. Time came. And it just
revealed how weird nature behaves. -
Albert Einstein is one of the best-known Scientists who ever lived, and for good
reasons. This is your guide to Einstein’s mind. -
This is a term that was first used in the early 20th century by a modernistic movement. It seemed compatible as the movement deeply rejected traditional norms and embraced the fast paced change in how the world worked.
Today, this term applies to all disciplines, it's more about forward thinkers in respective fields. - Show more
