- Authors
Sternig, John
- Abstract
The article focuses the need of astronomical education among children. It is a common observation that the mental outlook of an inhabitant of our earth remain earthcentric only. He is found least interested in going or knowing beyond earth and explore the space. If one would look towards moon from a scientific and philosophic perspective then one will find that there floats a world, suspended in space and held in its course around the earth by the bonds of gravity. Then there is a vast space which is full of immense facts which should be detected and deciphered among the common human being.
