27 October marks the invention of the Spectroscope! On 27 October 1859, German physicist #GustavKirchhoff announced the invention and practical development of the modern prism-based spectroscope at the University of Heidelberg, transforming chemical analysis and #astrophysics. By revealing the secrets hidden in light, #spectroscopy enabled scientists to identify elements in distant stars and explore the composition of the #Universe. Every #spectrum tells a story; every ray of light brings us closer to discovery!

Global Media and Information Literacy Week | 24–31 October 2026! Born from the 2011 Fez Declaration in Morocco, this #UNESCO -led global initiative was formally proclaimed by UNESCO in 2019 and recognized by the UN General Assembly in 2021. This year’s theme, 'We All Play a Part', reminds us that everyone has a role in building an informed, inclusive and resilient #society. Let us question wisely, verify facts, challenge misinformation and use digital technologies, including AI, responsibly. Educators, students, journalists, scientists, policymakers and citizens - join hands to make information a force for truth, trust and positive change. Think critically. Share responsibly. Empower everyone.

On the birth anniversary of #MaharishiValmiki Ji, the #AdiKavi and revered author of the #Ramayana, let us honour his timeless wisdom and the enduring values of truth, compassion, courage and righteousness. May his teachings inspire us to lead with humility, uphold dharma, and build a society rooted in #justice, #kindness and #humanity. Jai Shri Ram!

Under the divine glow of #SharadPurnima, the radiant Moon illuminating #ShriJagannathTemple fills the heart with devotion, peace and wonder. As the celestial beauty meets the blessings of #Mahaprabhu, may our lives shine with compassion, our hearts with faith, and our world with harmony. Jai Jagannath! 🙏

India’s journey towards self-reliance in space navigation takes another step forward! Scheduled for October 30, 2026, the ISRO NVS-03 mission aims to strengthen #NavIC, India’s indigenous navigation system. A special highlight is the contribution of #SACISRO, with indigenously developed rubidium atomic clocks advancing precision timing and technological self-reliance. From scientific innovation to strategic autonomy, #India’s space science continues to chart a path towards an #ViksitBharat!

Our Sweet, Shared Home - Planet Earth! Earth is not merely a planet we inhabit; it is our shared home, nurturing every life, dream and generation. The Sustainable Development Goals (#SDGs) remind us that a better future is possible when we leave no one behind. Let’s protect #nature, share #resources responsibly and build a world where #people and the #planet thrive together.

Remembering two #NobelLaureates who transformed our understanding of life and matter. On 26 October, we remember #CharlesJPedersen (1989), whose discovery of #crownethers opened new horizons in #molecularchemistry, and #DrArthurKornberg (2007), whose pioneering work on #DNAsynthesis advanced our understanding of life. Charles J. Pedersen, awarded the 1987 #NobelPrize in #Chemistry and Dr. Arthur Kornberg, awarded the 1959 Nobel Prize in #Medicine. Their legacy reminds us that curiosity fuels discovery, and scientific breakthroughs shape humanity’s future. @sciinteresting @curiousmindshub @popsci @MyGovIndia

A tree doesn’t need a forest to bloom; even in a small space, it can reach for the sky and spread hope. Let us nurture #nature, protect every #sapling, and remember that every tree we plant today is a promise of a greener, healthier tomorrow.

Well said!

Happy Sharad Purnima! May the divine moonlight fill every home with #peace, #prosperity, good health, and #happiness. May our hearts stay full of wonder and our minds shine with #curiosity as we explore the #universe!

Born on 25 October 1931, #KlausHasselmann transformed our understanding of Earth’s climate. A German physicist and 2021 #NobelLaureate in #Physics, he developed groundbreaking methods to distinguish human-induced global warming from natural climate variability. His work reminds us that science turns #climate signals into #knowledge - and knowledge into action. Understanding our planet today is key to protecting tomorrow!

Born on 24 October 1922, #WernerBuchholz helped shape the language of the digital age! The German-American computer scientist coined the term #byte in 1956, giving the world a fundamental unit of digital information. His pioneering work at IBM contributed to the evolution of modern computing. From a simple word to billions of bytes powering our connected world, his legacy reminds us that great innovations often begin with a simple idea.
