Isaac Roberts FRS (1829–1904) was a Welsh engineer and successful businessman who made a lasting mark on astronomy as a pioneering amateur astronomer. He is best remembered for his groundbreaking work in astrophotography, especially his early and detailed photographs of nebulae and star clusters. At a time when astronomy relied heavily on visual observation, Roberts used long-exposure photography to reveal the true structure of celestial objects—most famously capturing the An

Rakesh Sharma is a legendary Indian Air Force pilot and the first Indian to travel to space. He was born on 13 January 1949 and created history on 3 April 1984 when he flew aboard the Soviet spacecraft Soyuz T-11 as part of the Intercosmos mission. During his 8 days in space on the space station Salyut 7, Rakesh Sharma conducted scientific and Earth-observation experiments for India. When asked by then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi how India looked from space, he famously repl

Earth’s Rotation Day is celebrated every year on January 8th to honor French physicist Léon Foucault’s groundbreaking 1851 experiment that proved the Earth spins on its axis. Using his famous Foucault Pendulum, he provided visual, scientific evidence of Earth’s rotation — the very motion that causes day and night. The Earth rotates at tremendous speed, about 1,670 km/h (1,040 mph) at the equator, though this speed decreases toward the poles. Over millions of years, this rotat

National Science Fiction Day is celebrated every year on January 2nd to honor the world of science fiction and the creative minds who shaped it, especially legendary author Isaac Asimov, whose birthday falls on this day. The celebration recognizes how science fiction inspires curiosity about the future, space exploration, technology, and imaginative possibilities beyond our present world. People celebrate by reading sci-fi books, watching iconic movies, revisiting classic sto

Louis Pasteur was a pioneering French scientist whose work transformed the fields of microbiology, chemistry, and modern medicine. He is best known for developing the germ theory of disease, which proved that microorganisms are responsible for many illnesses and infections. Pasteur introduced the process of pasteurization, making milk and other foods safer for consumption and greatly improving public health standards. His groundbreaking research also led to the creation of th

International Computer Security Day is observed every year on 30th November to raise awareness about protecting our digital data, devices, and online identity. In a world where technology touches every part of life, this day reminds us to stay vigilant, update our security practices, and safeguard the digital spaces we rely on every day.   #InternationalComputerSecurityDay #CyberSecurity #DataProtection #StaySecure #DigitalSafety #OnlineSecurity #CyberAwareness #TechSafety #S

On November 28, 1964, the Mariner 4 spacecraft was launched — the first successful mission to fly by Mars.  After a 228-day journey, Mariner 4 passed about 9,846 km from Mars and transmitted the first ever close-up photos of the Red Planet back to Earth.  The images revealed a cratered, moon-like surface — a discovery that forever changed humanity’s view of Mars and paved the way for all future Mars exploration.  #RedPlanetDay #Mars #Mariner4 #SpaceExploration #MarsMission #O

Today, we remember and honour Sir Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman, born on 7th November 1888, one of India’s most brilliant physicists whose groundbreaking discovery of the Raman Effect earned him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1930. His work revealed how light interacts with matter, opening new doors in the world of science. C.V. Raman continues to inspire generations to think deeply, observe closely, and question fearlessly. His legacy reminds us that with curiosity and dedicat
