<p>The mysteries of outer space and astronomy have fascinated the world for as long as we have recorded history. It is almost impossible to look up at the night sky on a clear evening and not be caught up in the sense of wonder and amazement at how big the universe truly is compared to us. Astronomy is a natural science that has been ever-present in human history. Our ancestors looked at the night sky, filled with curiosity about what was beyond our planet with the same fervor as we do. \A\AInternational Astronomy Day is a way for astronomy enthusiasts and professionals to share their knowledge and love of outer space with the general public. It is also a way for everyone interested in space to explore their passion and increase their knowledge. It was started in 1973 by Doug Berger, who at the time was the president of the Astronomical Association of Northern California. He intended to get people in urban areas interested in astronomy. To do this, he set up telescopes that people could use to enjoy gazing at space. Since then, the event has gained popularity and the support of organizations such as educational institutions, space agencies and other institutions related to astronomy. \A\AOriginally, Astronomy Day occurred on a Saturday between mid-April and mid-May, and was scheduled so as to occur at or close to the first quarter Moon. In 2007, an autumn rendition of Astronomy Day was added. It was scheduled to occur on a Saturday between mid-September and mid-October so as to be on or close to the first quarter Moon. \A\AThis year, International Astronomy Day will be celebrated on 15th May and 9th October.</p>

Participants will be provided with a problem statement. They will need to work on the statement and come up with a good presentation. Participants may group up or they may participate individually. Participants will also be given a chance of presentation and they will be judged on that. <br><br>There will be an interesting problem statement which will surely make you ponder and research. It’s a great opportunity to learn new things, right? So, take part and present your skills!-->
<b>Mars Rover</b>
<br><br>Colonising Mars has been the dream of the human race. For this, we need to explore Mars, and collect as much data as possible. Assume that we currently don’t have much detailed information about its atmospheric, surface soil composition, contents of the planet’s core, biomolecules present, radiation levels, etc. You have to design an unmanned rover for mars. It has to collect as much data as possible as the fate of future manned missions is in our hands.
<br><br>The mission must contain a rover, which is feasible to carry inside the payload bay of the rocket. This implies that you cannot include any heavy and large equipment but this shouldn’t limit the potential of your project.
<br><br><b>Mission:</b>
<br><br>First, make a strong foundation. Mention the inspiration, aim, goal and purpose of the mission. Keep these in mind when planning the mission ahead. Do not miss any step in planning the mission, as any negligence may lead to a catastrophic failure.
<br>You <b>can</b> consider the following points while explaining mission overview:
<br>• Introduction
<br>• Inspiration, Aim, Goal and Purpose of the mission
<br>• Importance of the mission and usage of the obtained data for further research.
<br>• Data to be collected from Mars for research
<br>• Explain why do you think that the above data is useful and what further research can be done with that data.
<br>• Explain the design of the rover, its formfactor, its components in brief.
<br>• Tentative Date of launch
<br>• Tentative Date of reaching the Martian orbit
<br>• Safety measures adopted during the manufacturing and transport of the rover.
<br><br><b>Rover:</b>
<br><br>The rover will carry out necessary surface and underground tasks and conduct research. It will transmit necessary data back to the orbiter, which inturn transmits the data back to Earth.
<br>The following things you <b>must</b> consider while designing your rover:
<br>• Can pass from rocks of height 10cm (required design of wheel, Overall bot's rough design, Suspension size and type)
<br>• Open drawer and pick object of upto 5kg
<br>• Open screw with robotic arm
<br>• Mapping surrounding using sensor
<br>• Bot should be able to operate within the range of 100m by an operator.
<br>• Do not forget to include the List of Components used, Cost and Efficiency.
<br><br>You <b>can</b> consider the following points while explaining your rover design:
<br>• Regions to cover throughout the entire mission.
<br>• The mechanism for its movement and design of the wheels or tracks.
<br>• Features, tools and instruments, etc present on it.
<br>• Camera module and other required sensors.
<br>• Power Source and energy storage device.
<br>• Mechanism of specimen collection, experimentation and analyzation.
<br>• Specify the construction of the rover and mechanism of each of its components. You can get innovative in this and you can include ideas which are difficult to carry out, but which are still feasible.
<br><br><b>**No code or algorithm required**</b>
<br><br>You <b>can</b> also include certain aspects of your mission which plans on setting up the infrastructure for future missions. We suggest you search online about all previous rover missions to Mars and take inspiration, but you must innovate your project with amazing ideas and try to give a method for its execution.
<br><br><i>At places where you feel like explaining the design, you may include CAD models, photos or illustrations. </i>
<br><i>Your submission <b>must</b> be in the form of .pdf / .ppt </i>
<br><br><i>And above all get inspired, be creative, and enjoy your imagination! :)</i></b>

<b>Why Machine Learning is important in the Field of Astronomy?</b><br>
It is well known that knowledge has no boundary. Astronomy and astrophysics are not an exception. In recent days, the use of ML and Data Analytics has become a very common and essential culture. Nowadays, these become a part of the daily life of Astronomers and Astrophysicists.
In recent days, there are lots of competitions as well as projects are going on in the field of Astronomy and Astrophysics. And ML is a very important part of those projects.
In 2017, a research group from Stanford University demonstrated the effectiveness of machine learning algorithms by using a neural network to study images of strong gravitational lensing.
<br><br> <b>Is it very difficult to understand?</b><br>
Still, there are some examples of the use of ML in real life.
Let’s start with the easiest one. Images obtained from telescopes often contain “noise”. What we consider as noise are any random fluctuations not related to the observations. For example, wind and the structure of the atmosphere can affect the image produced by a telescope on the ground as the air gets in the way. That is the reason we send some telescopes to space – to eliminate the influence of Earth’s atmosphere. But how can you clear the noise produced by these factors? Via machine learning algorithm called a Generative Adversarial Network or GAN.
GANs consist of two elements – a neural network that tries to generate objects and another one (a “discriminator”) that tries to guess whether the object is real or fake-generated. This is an extremely common and successful technique of removing noise, already dominating the self-driving car industry. In astronomy, it’s very important to have as clear of an image as possible. That’s why this technique is getting widely adopted.
<br><br> <b>Is there anything else?</b><br>
Yes – NASA’s research on the important application of machine learning in probe landings. One technique for space exploration is to send probes to land on asteroids, gather material and ship it back to Earth. Currently, in order to choose a suitable landing spot, the probe must take pictures of the asteroid from every angle, send them back to Earth, then scientists analyze the images manually and give the probe instructions on what to do.
<br><br> <b>So, learn ML and apply it to your projects!</b><br><br>
Machine Learning is an application of Artificial Intelligence which allows computers to automatically learn from data without being explicitly programmed. Python is preferred as the best and robust platform for Machine learning systems. In the past decade, machine learning has given us self-driving cars, effective web search, practical speech recognition, and many more such advancements. ML is so pervasive today that we probably use it dozens of times a day without even realizing it. Many researchers are also of the view that it is the best way to make progress towards human-level AI. <br><br>This 2 days workshop, brought to you by Techvanto Academy in collaboration with Nakshatra, aims to explore Python programming right from its fundamentals and up to complex ML Algorithms. The workshop will also include some projects which will give complete hands-on experience.
<br><br><b>Contents of the Workshop:<br><br>1) Introduction to Machine Learning<br>2) Basic of Python Programming<br>3) Introduction to Numpy & Matplotlib<br>4) Regression<br>5) Introduction to Iris Datasets<br>6) Unsupervised Learning<br>7) Projects</b>
<br><br><b><i>No prior knowledge or experience is required for this workshop.</i></b>
<hr>
