About This Podcast

“The cosmos is within us. We are made of star stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself.” ― Carl Sagan Hello there! we are The Astronomy Club, Manipal. A bunch of passionate, aspiring Astronomers and space geeks. Join us as we explore the universe a lightyear at a time from a scientific, theological and literary perspective where we geek out about everything under (and beyond) the sun from talking about black holes and baby universes to vibing to Space Oddity or Rocketman. Together, let's prove Neil deGrasse Tyson wrong and make sense of the universe! IG: @astronony.manipal
