Science Communicator, Dr.Tapan Sharma, Professor, Department of Physics, IIT
and Shri Manas Das, Sky Observer etc were the main resource persons for the

Even though the Comet Ison, which was the sun grazing
comet discovered in the year September 2012, has disintegrated when it came near to the Sun,it has created a

towards Sun.

night before you and out of that will come great work.
