Dear Friends!!
This is my favourite topic and I'm really waiting for ample time to post on this issue.Any inquisitive person is really fascinated by looking at the Sky.We wish to know what's there in it.Some times we really wonder "Ah!!! Is Sun so far to us...","How much far is this star from Earth...".From several centuries people have been wondering about heavens and this made humans find several things and that process is never ending as long as there are humans and as long as there is Sky.
Let us see the beauty of the explorations people have been trying to make:
ANCIENT INDIAN ASTRONOMY:Please refer this link,really good one..

One needs to understand the beauty of these space explorations only then they really enjoy the beauty or greatness of the Space explorations.Agree!! these things are costly but a Somalia or Nepal(with due respect to these nations) is not doing these things.Well established,developed nations are doing these explorations.Somethings are above the knowledge of common man ,even the person enjoys the advantages of those things its not necessary for him to learn about those things.
I watch TV and its not necessary for me to know the mechanism of TV or I need not bother much about the electromagnetic radiations.Nor I should'nt agrue that I will not agree with these modern inventions I want to watch dramas in nearest theatres .
Cheers,
