UP govt sets up astro labs in schools to inspire next generation of space scientists

Under the Chief Minister’s directive, several such labs—developed on the public-private partnership (PPP) model—are now operational in various districts.
These labs allow students to explore the mysteries of space not just through textbooks, but through hands-on experience with telescopes, VR headsets, and microscopes. The day is not far when every child in the state can dream of reaching the stars like Shubhanshu Shukla and soar toward their aspirations.
