Back in September, India's lunar exploration mission Chandrayaan-2 caught the country's attention, especially young children, and started the conversation around the importance of space research. If your little one too has been inspired to consider being a rocket scientist and has several questions that can only be answered by an expert, sign them up for an interactive science workshop named after the lunar mission.

The workshop will be conducted by Scienceutsav, a Bengaluru-based company that curates fun interactive learning workshops at 40 franchises across India. This particular workshop has also been conducted in Andhra Pradesh, Delhi and Bengaluru, and will take place in Mumbai and Pune this Sunday. "The aim of this workshop is to generate curiosity about space research among kids and why we need satellites and what they do. Children today talk on phones and use the Internet on a daily basis, and this workshop will explain how we need satellites for all of this. The programme has been designed such that it will feed the curiosity about not just satellites and astronomy, but basic science and electronics, too," says Priyanka Kudchikar, Pune franchise partner.
