About

Astrophotonics Initiative (aka Astrophotonics Club) dives deep into the core of human instinct, to gaze at the starry night. Where are we? What is our place in this cosmos? So many questions! Don’t worry, we can give you some light. Lets pass the ancient photons through your metal cylinder as you say telescope. What a name! But let me tell you these beasts need to be tamed to get the most out of it. Optical Telescopes have immense light gathering abilities compared to the human eye. We organize sky watching events for your pleasure. Come, join to see the world out of your world!
