The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) will organise a two-day space exhibition on National Institute of Technology (NIT) campus here on October 6 and 7.
District Education Officer S. Srinivasa Chari has appealed to the managements of all schools in the district to ensure that children visit the exhibition and take part in the programmes being organised as part of the international space week celebrations.
It was aimed at creating awareness among people on how the space research can be utilised for the good of the humanity and it benefits on various facets of life.
Competitions such as quiz, drawing and poster presentation would be held on topics such as space science, rockets, satellites, inter-planetary mission and exploring outer world in space.
Those interested persons in taking part may contact V.V. Mani over phone No: 83329-69365 or email: vvmani@nitw.ac.in and register their names.
The exhibition is open to parents also, said the DEO and asked students to make use of the opportunity.
