“The universal medicine for the soul is supreme reason and absolute justice. For the mind mathematical and practical truth, for the body the quintessence a combination of light and gold”

-Me

[Aryabhata @Aryabhata4]

I mean not to brag, but I was the first person to find the Radius of the earth within 1% of error soo I’m pretty cool I guess

[Aryabhata @Aryabhata4]

Man, I got a lot of crap back in my day for believing the earth wasn’t flat, but actually round. glad people today have common sense..🌎🌍🌏

[Aryabhata @Aryabhata4]

Something interesting I found out the other day was the moon actually has no light, it just mirrors the sun.... isn’t that wild ??

[Aryabhata @Aryabhata4]

I had a tough time the other day convincing Hindu priests that eclipses weren’t caused by the god Rahu, but actually shadows cast by the earth and moon!

[Aryabhata @Aryabhata4]

Did you know I also provided the circumference and measurement of the Earth and the radius of the orbits of 8 planets

[Aryabhata @Aryabhata4]

Also I have a research facility named after me called the “Aryabhata Research Institute of Observational Sciences”

[Aryabhata @Aryabhata4]

Did you know India���s first Satellite was named after me the “Aryabhatta”

[Aryabhata @Aryabhata4]

I mean I’m also an aspiring author of astronomy books of course (Aryabhatiya and Dashgeetika) both books I wrote

[Aryabhata @Aryabhata4]

I also invented some dope astronomical instruments such as the Gnomon and Yasti-Yantra

[Aryabhata @Aryabhata4]

I miss teaching at Kusumapura, I hope my students are doing well

[Aryabhata @Aryabhata4]

People always told me the earth was the center of the universe, I’m glad I never listened to them

[Aryabhata @Aryabhata4]

We really out here in Assaka, India

[Aryabhata @Aryabhata4]

did you know the calculated earths rotation based on fixed stars is actually 23 Hours 56 Minutes and 4 Seconds

[Aryabhata @Aryabhata4]
