Is there any event so i can join?
Location ? You could search for local astronomy clubs . Most will have monthly star parties and meetings .
Yeah, as @Starrancher asked, any location?
Or are you looking for some online?
By looking at the user name, I guess most probably, the user is an Indian. I’m not aware about Indian events, but as told try reaching out to some clubs.
Cheers,
Nikolai.
Yes, I am from India
It’ll be helpful if you can reach some clubs as told.
If there’s any help you need from me, ask anytime
Cheers,
Nikolai

Yeah, I was an astronomy major in college and people used to ask if I could do their horoscopes. After a while I told them of my alternate theory that I called Jumbojetology. Instead of looking at the positions of the moon and planets I consulted airline schedules to look for the positions of jumbo jets since their net gravitation influence on us was probably greater.

That’s just too funny .
Some of them actually believed it!
Yeah , takes all kinds to make the world go ‘round I guess …
Jumbojetology is so funny
