Did you know Hyderabad now hosts more student stargazing sessions than any other city in India? From telescope camps to science fairs themed around Aditya-L1, astronomy in Hyderabad is having a serious moment — and schools are leading the way. 🔭
In the past year alone, more than 50+ schools in Telangana have brought space learning into classrooms through SpaceAdhyaan local programs — and the impact is both immediate and inspiring.
🛰️ One CBSE school in Gachibowli recently hosted a night sky observation camp where students tracked Saturn’s rings and asked,👉 “Can we start a space club like ISRO?”

💡 Why is space education in Telangana booming?
🏫 Schools are actively seeking NEP-aligned, hands-on STEM experiences
👨👩👧👦 Parents are attending space sessions with their kids — some for the first time
📚 Educators are using ISRO’s missions like Chandrayaan-3 and Aditya-L1 to teach real-time science
This is more than a trend. It’s a movement — where astronomy is no longer just for science fairs, but a year-round educational tool.
🚀 Activities Hyderabad schools are loving:
🔭 Telescope-based night sky camps
🌘 Real-time tracking of lunar phases & solar events
💻 Stellarium tutorials in school computer labs
🧪 NEP-integrated science modules that merge astronomy with physics, math & coding
🎙️ Student-led exhibitions presenting India’s space missions

📈 Future pacing: Imagine your students showcasing a DIY Mars rover prototype at the next National Science Day or leading a space quiz based on Aditya-L1 for their peers.
