About SWAN
It was an interest of few school and college students from eastern India to look up high, towards the sky. Their interests crystallised and SWAN was born in 1987. Arrival of the Halley’s comet closer to the Earth that year played the prime role in this crystallisation.

Some events today and some others tomorrow. High altitude locations and dark sky within vicinity as locations and ‘Sky of This Month’ of Science Reporter magazine as guide shook hands with enthusiasm. The synergy of this hand shaking kept the ‘group’ driving for long eight years. --------- Read More
