Orchids Bangalore Campuses Celebrate Rare Planetary Alignment with Stargazing Night & Astro Activities

Bangalore, February 05 2025: Orchids The International School celebrates the rare and awe-inspiring celestial event—the planetary alignment of Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, Uranus & Mercury—through an exclusive stargazing night, along with an astronomy movie and astro events at its Bangalore campuses. The stargazing night will be open to all students (Orchids & non-Orchids) and all space enthusiasts who can come together to witness this extraordinary phenomenon.

During these events, participants will have the opportunity to engage in a unique blend of education and hands-on learning. A 12 to 15-minute educational movie will be screened at each campus, explaining the significance of the planetary alignment and its fascinating role in the field of astronomy. The movie will also explore the science behind celestial movements, offering a deeper understanding of the universe.

At the same time, attendees will be able to view the alignment firsthand through live stargazing sessions starting from 7 pm to 11 pm depending on the clear visibility in the sky. With high-end telescopes set up at the campuses, Orchids is offering an immersive, guided experience for all participants, whether they are seasoned astronomy enthusiasts or newcomers to the night sky.

Ajit Singh, Head of Astronomy, Orchids The International School, said, “Stargazing is not merely an activity, but a chance for our students and community to delve into the mysteries of the cosmos. This rare planetary alignment serves as a source of inspiration, sparking curiosity and learning. We aim to provide all students and space enthusiasts with the opportunity to experience this event and grasp its importance, while nurturing their passion for science and exploration.”

This alignment, which won’t occur again until 2040, is an exceptional opportunity for both students and their families to come together and explore the mysteries of the universe. Orchids’ stargazing initiative is designed to spark curiosity, deepen scientific understanding, and inspire future generations of space explorers.
