So here is a small appreciation post for the Founders of Singularity. Consider it a sweet farewell of the team as we get ready to welcome a new team on board !!

[Astronomy Club of IISER Kolkata @singularity_ik]

It has been ONE YEAR of Singularity:

The Astronomy Club of IISER Kolkata and it has been quite the journey, phew! This club is just one year old(can you believe it?) and it already is one of the most active clubs in IISERK!

[Astronomy Club of IISER Kolkata @singularity_ik]

We never really settled to appreciate the work that the original founding team put in to make this club stand on its own and a new tenure of OBs has already started.

A star gazing session was held at @iiserkol on a cold Friday evening! Students' hands were definitely numb because of the cold weather but their eyes were burning with passion and excitement!

Here's a closeup of the bright prominence that many people reported seeing with their naked eye during the eclipse. This was captured using two telescopes- at 2000mm and at 3650mm.

These prominences are part of the solar chromosphere, and normally require a specially modified telescope to view. Not during an eclipse!

Get to learn the fundamentals of high energy phenomena in the universe, through an introductory talk by Dr. Sudip Kumar Garain @iiserkol

Happening in less than an hour! See you then and there.
