SciKid Vihanaa Bhatt has to say about her experience with SciKnowTech.
Children are more than we think who they are; they can do more than we think what they can do. All they need is a vote of confidence from us. Their dream today will become the realities tomorrow. Let’s hear what our SciKid Vihanaa Bhatt has to say about her experience of last 4 years with SciKnowTech.
How to Look for Asteroids
Over 30,000 near-Earth asteroids have been found by astronomers, and the number is growing at an exponential rate. Here is how they are found and how researchers determine if they pose a hazard to Earth. An asteroid must pass within 1.3 Astronomical Units (AU) of the Sun to be designated as a near-Earth object (NEA). The separation between the Sun and our planet is one AU. Over 30,000 NEAs have been found so far, with the majority of those discoveries occurring in the previous ten years, according to the European Space Agency (ESA). The majority of the one million or...
How Crisis Affects the Lives of Young Adults
Being a young adult is already a tough task! Ask our younglings, and they will tell you they have so much to learn and discover, but so little time to fit all of it in! in such a crucial age of life, where children are not only absorbing knowledge from the world but also learning about themselves and where their curiosity will lead them. The pandemic has taught us a lot, including how young adults are affected by crises. Some arguments lead to the conclusion that crises at this stage in life may affect students for decades to come. At...

Cheating Extinction: The Fast Track to Rehabilitating the Cheetah in India
We are all too familiar with the destruction humanity can cause. One of the biggest dilemmas of science is that with development, the destruction of nature increases. One of many species we drove out of India is the Cheetah. One of the big seven of the cat family, and the fastest land animal. These beautiful predators had been on this subcontinent for thousands of years, with evidence of human interaction dating back to the Neolithic period. The connection of cheetahs with India is so strong that even the name cheetah is believed to have been derived from the Sanskrit word...
Clouds in the windy sky ( Mindfulness Day )

Big step for ISRO, Giant leap for India: SSLV Launch
When the Indian National Committee for Space Research (INCOSPAR) was established by the Indian government in 1962, India decided to enter space. The INCOSPAR organization established the Thumba Equatorial Rocket Launching Station (TERLS) near Thiruvananthapuram for upper atmospheric research under the leadership of the brilliant Dr Vikram Sarabhai. The former INCOSPAR was replaced by the Indian Space Research Organisation, which was established in 1969. Vikram Sarabhai gave ISRO the guidance it needed to act as a development agent after recognizing the value and role of space technology in a nation’s growth. Then, ISRO set out on its mission to offer...
Extra Terrestrials: How and Where to Find Them
Man has always been fascinated by space. We have gone from worshipping the moon to walking on it; we have gone from observing mars to sending rovers there; we have overcome gravity through rockets. Who knows what will happen next? A few weeks back, I had an encounter with ETs. Yes, Extra-Terrestrials, and quite a few of them. You know where? Right here in Ahmedabad! Now, what is the first thing that comes to mind when I say ET? Is it a small, green creature with big eyes? Well, I expected so! But my ETs are anything but that. These...
