Long before modern telescopes and satellites, ancient scientists carefully observed the sky to understand and predict eclipses. By studying the regular movements of the Sun, Moon, and Earth, early astronomers…
While textbooks explain the basics of our solar system, many of its greatest secrets are still being explored. From hidden oceans beneath icy moons to mysterious planetary atmospheres, the solar…
Quantum physics explores the universe at its most fundamental level, revealing how matter, energy, space, and time interact in ways that defy classical intuition. At RAAVANA, understanding quantum phenomena supports…
Black holes are regions in space with extremely strong gravity, where matter and light cannot escape. While they are often depicted in science fiction as portals to other worlds, current…
Mars represents the next major frontier in human space exploration. Sending humans to Mars is not just a technological challenge, but a scientific milestone that could redefine humanity’s future beyond…
The question of whether life exists beyond Earth remains one of the greatest mysteries in science. Astronomers and astrobiologists around the world continue the search for alien life by studying…
Beyond our atmosphere lies a dynamic environment filled with Near-Earth Objects (NEOs). At RAAVANA, we act as the sentinels of our planet, dedicated to the detection and tracking of comets…
Every mission into the unknown reaches a defining "moment of truth"—that critical instant where years of engineering, training, and courage are put to the ultimate test. For American space travelers,…
The 21st century has transformed astronomy through advanced telescopes, space missions, and data-driven research. These discoveries have reshaped our understanding of the universe, from distant galaxies to the fundamental nature…
Recent multi-source climate datasets, including satellite observations, ground-based measurements, and ocean monitoring systems, have confirmed historic records in global climate indicators. These include sustained increases in global mean surface temperature,…
Astronomy continues to uncover phenomena that extend far beyond current theoretical frameworks and observational capabilities. Despite major advancements in astrophysics, cosmology, and space technology, a significant portion of the universe…
The discovery of exoplanets—worlds orbiting stars beyond our solar system—is one of the most exciting chapters in modern astronomy. At RAAVANA, we study these distant planets to answer the age-old…
