Special Interview with Scientists and astronomers – A haven for astronomers, Hanle is evolving as an Astro-tourism site

October 21, 2023

It was indeed a great experience. Talking with senior scientists of the Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bengaluru Dr. Niruj Mohan Ramanujam, Dorje Angchuk, the Engineer-in-charge of the Observatory, and experienced astronomers about the observations they witnessed in dark skies of Eastern Ladakh. This interview became more prominent and it was an honour for me that Dr Niruj Mohan Ramanujam, the Head of the Outreach Section (SCOPE Section) at the Indian Institute of Astrophysics himself called and shared this entire experience with me. If you remember Dr Niruj Mohan was one of the chief scientists of the Aditya L1 mission. He told me to pen down the entire thing 😊 I took the interview of him with other important astronomers scientists went to Ladakh. And here you can read my exclusive editorial interview in today’s newspaper English Hindi editions. And also in New Delhi’s National local Daily Amrit India editorial page.
