Dear Friends,

"Each day a different image or photograph of our universe …"

I'm sure many of you recognise this title line from the famous webpage authored
& edited by Nemiroff & Bonnell.

Astronomy Picture of the Day: http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/

Prof. Robert Nemiroff is coming to India and is talking at the Amateur
Astronomers Association Delhi

On behalf of AAAD, I'd like to invite all interested to Nemiroff's talk at the
Nehru Planetarium, Teen Murti Bhavan.

May we request all those interested in attending the talk to please register

Before Prof. Nemiroff starts his talk we would like to present before him a
collection of best astrophotographs from all over India.

We invite all amateur as well as professional astronomers across India to please

atmospheric phenomena and archeo-astronomy.
