Touching the Stars! Embark on an extraordinary journey as we delve into the secrets of the Universe through the eyes of Indian scientists at India’s highest scientific laboratory, situated at an altitude of 4,500 meters in the mesmerizing landscape of Ladakh, near the Indo-Chinese border. This initiative, known as Juley Cosmos, highlights the pioneering work of scientists who thrive in this challenging environment.
At the heart of this facility are the Himalayan Chandra Telescope and the GROWTH-India Telescope (GIT), both of which are operated remotely in robotic mode, utilizing satellite links from ISRO’s INSAT satellites. Researchers from IIT Bombay and the Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bengaluru, have made remarkable discoveries using these world-class optical telescopes.
Moreover, the region is home to India’s first Dark Sky Reserve, created by the UT administration of Ladakh in Hanle to enhance astronomy and promote astro-tourism. While many are drawn to light, astronomers cherish the darkness that allows for clearer views of the cosmos. This scientific hub has become a beacon for sustainable astro-tourism, inviting visitors to marvel at the stunning expanse of the Milky Way, which appears almost within arm’s reach from Mount Saraswati in Hanle.
