Umair Asim surrounded by ladies at an Astrofest Khwarizmi Science Society (KSS) has done a phenomenal job this year of bringing astronomy to students, adults, children in many parts of Pakistan. Please see my earlier posts on their astronomy events
here and
here (especially the pictures in there). Their latest
Falakyati Mela (Astrofest) was held on Sept 30th at
Government Higher Secondary School at Shahdara and they again got an unbelievable turn out! This time they also held a quiz competition and poetry reading about astronomy. Please see a longer report on
Umair Asim's blog. Congratulations to KSS on doing a fantastic job in celebrating the
International Year of Astronomy in Pakistan!
Great Job KSS. It is good to see astronomy related activities...something that had been quite unheard of in Pakistan.
