SAASST Activities for April 2022 (Global Astronomy Month 2022)

Several activities are being planned for April 2022. This falls with the worldwide celebration of “Global Astronomy Month 2022.” This coincides with the holy month of Ramadhan, 1443 AH.

Every year in April, the world’s largest annual celebration of astronomy offers a unique demonstration of the power of the night sky to bring people together from around the world. Registered events organized by astronomy clubs, planetariums, and others, pop up on the world map in an array of countries that don’t usually come to mind when thinking of astronomy. GAM is an inspiring expression of the universal passion for

astronomy we all share, whoever or wherever we are.
