About

Greetings!

I am Siddhant Rathi, an Electrical Engineering Sophomore at IIT Indore. I joined the Astronomy Club in order to work in a field which I once used to follow (long ago, :P). I am generally interested in exploring all the wonders of nature that surroud us, be it through an optical telescope, signal processing, or even a microscope (made all of them during quarantine!). The physics and engineering aspects of astronomy also interest me to some extent. A lot of my learning pursuits at present are directed towards Physics, Mathematics, Logic, and Philosophy (yep!). I keep 'inventing' problems, and (most of the times) solutions to them. Well, that's it.

"That which I cannot create, I do not understand".
