A three-day science exhibition being held at Yuvakshetra Institute of Management Studies (YIMS), Mundur, in association with the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) from Saturday is pulling large crowds, especially school and college students.
The rocket models set up by the ISRO continued to be the one of the key attractions at the expo, though the ISRO could not bring its full share of exhibits. The mobile planetariums and the night sky safari turned out to be a unique experience for the students. There was a steady queue in front of the planetariums, which could accommodate as many as 40 visitors at a time.
Many were surprised to take a look at the sun and the stars through a high-vision telescope during the day-time. “It was a learning experience,” said Sandra Satish, BCom student at YIMS.
