Welcome !
The Nakshatra Astronomy Club IITH is part of the Department of Physics, IIT Hyderabad. Here, we are making an endeavour to grow interests and scientific temper among young generations in the field of Astronomy and Space Research.
Promoting outreach culture in astronomy through talks, observational sessions, and ideas. Looking at the night sky through a Telescope is super-exciting, but sharing the joy and the knowledge with your friends and spreading the interest is another level of success that we want to achieve through our activities. Here we are to be thrilled with you.

Astronomy Observation Sessions
Nakshatra Astronomy Club IITH, put forwarding to explore astronomy research .
We will set up observation sessions periodically. In these sessions, our 14-inch Telescope will be used for observing celestial events and nebulae, planets. Please keep an eye on our events. Informal session involving small quizzes and general discussions.
For school &college students
With this large telescope, we will provide young students an opportunity to study celestial objects in greater detail than other small Telescopes conventionally used for outreach programmes. Activities such as stargazing training programmes, observing astronomical transients, working with celestial images will enhance their knowledge and add to their sense of human connection with space.
