An Exhibition on Comets, Meteors and Asteroids
Lately, Jyotirvidya Parisanstha organized an exhibition for space enthusiasts at Pune. Comets, meteors, asteroids, were all showcased at the exhibition. It is believed that the Lonar Lake, one of the few craters on earth was the direct result of a meteor crash in Maharashtra, ages ago. A handmade model of Lonar Lake was one of the attractions at the exhibition besides handmade space telescope and spacecraft that were on display.
Jyotirvidya Parisanstha which is the oldest association of amateur astronomers in India has been organizing exhibitions such as Mars exploration, the Moon exploration, space stations and Indian observatories to create awareness among the scientific community and general public.
