On the 4th of July, 2019, Muslim Explorers and Pak Astronomers Islamabad joined hands to conduct a Telescope Making Workshop for kids in Islamabad. The participants were given a brief introduction about Galilean Telescopes. They were then provided “Telescope Making Kits” especially designed by Pak Astronomers for kids between ages 10 to 16. The kids then built their very own telescopes.
On Friday July 28, 2017, PakAstronomers Islamabad arranged a telescope-making workshop for the students of Muslim Explorers. Venue was Dawah Academy which was arranged by Muslim Explorers.
The students were taught how a telescope works, how to build one and provided practical kits to apply that knowledge on the spot.
On Thursday 27 Apr 2017, PakAstronomers Islamabad conducted lectures on astronomy and an astronomical observation session at Beaconhouse School Systems Girls Branch, F-11/3, Islamabad. The students got a chance not just to learn the concepts but also to experience for themselves how it feels to actually peer through a telescope.
We thank the administration and staff of Beaconhouse F-11 for providing us the chance to spread some astronomy love and their continued cooperation.
