About this episode
In this episode we will explore Astrophotography and a glimpse of IIA Indian Astronomical Observatory in Hanle, Ladakh for that we have with us as speaker Mr. Dorje Angchuk. Dorje is the Engineer in charge of the IIA’s Indian Astronomical Observatory in Hanle, Ladakh. But his involvement in astronomy is much more than that. He is also the first Indian to bag the position in the prestigious body. This honor is meant to officially recognise those individuals who have significantly contributed to the progress of astronomical research and culture in their country. This recognition by the International Astronomical Union is for ‘his passionate promotion of astronomy in the Ladakh region, through his excellent astrophotography’.
