Moon Gazing event in Mumbai
It’s wonderful to hear that Stargazing Mumbai is organizing public astronomy outreach events with the aim of promoting scientific literacy and inspiring curiosity about the universe. Priyadarshini Park in Malabar Hills seems like an excellent choice due to its unique surroundings, peaceful environment, and accessibility.
The ambient conditions for setting up telescopes will enhance the stargazing experience for the general public and enthusiasts alike. Such initiatives play a crucial role in fostering a deeper appreciation for the universe and connecting people with the wonders of astronomy.

Priyadarshani Park, Mumbai
Public Event
Free for all
In our public outreach events, we often show the Moon or planets through the telescopes and eclipses, while a dedicated team is set to answer astronomy related questions. The event duration is generally 2 hours.
Why is it Free?
These events are driven by a passion for astronomy and a desire to share knowledge and enthusiasm about the universe with as many people as possible. Educators and astronomy enthusiasts are often motivated by a genuine interest in promoting scientific understanding and curiosity, rather than financial gain.It removes barriers and makes astronomy education accessible to a wider audience, including individuals and families who might not be able to afford paid educational programs or events.
By making astronomy outreach events free of cost, Stargazing Mumbai inspires a love for science, encourages curiosity about the universe, and contributes to a more scientifically literate society, ultimately benefiting the public and society as a whole.
