REPORT: Outreach @ Parikrama School,Jayanagar

 
This event was a part of BAS's public education and outreach programme.The event was held on the 31st of January 2010 at the Parikrama School,Jayanagar.

The first thing we noticed about the students at the Parikrama school are they are all unexpectedly brilliant, in fact they are probably better thinkers than many of us , when we were at that age .

REPORT : Coorg Star Party - Nov 2009

This report has been long overdue .Besides considering the high quality of the Star Party , it is but apt that the event be reported despite the delay.  
 
The Coorg Star party at Keemalee Estates held in the month of November 2009 has to be amongst the best star parties that we have had. The Quality skies and the prestiness of  Estate have greatly contributed to the success of the Trip. This Star party was the first of the Observing season and many people had their hopes attached to this one ,especially after a long cloudy monsoon.
