#WhySeries Why does a ripe mango smell so sweet and irresistible? As #mangoes ripen, natural #enzymes convert starch into #sugars and release hundreds of #aromatic compounds called #esters and #terpenes . These fragrant molecules give ripe mangoes their characteristic sweet aroma and also attract animals to help disperse their seeds. #Nature 's delicious strategy ensures the survival of the next generation of mango trees! #Sweetness with a purpose - that's the #science behind the #KingofFruits.

Science is flourishing in vibrant Gujarat! Over the past 12 years, #Gujarat has created a robust ecosystem for science communication with the world-class Science City in Ahmedabad and Regional Science Centres in Bhavnagar, Bhuj, Patan, and Rajkot. Five more centres are coming up in Vadodara, Surat, Jamnagar, Junagadh, and Porbandar, further strengthening this knowledge network. As District Science Centres reach every corner of Gujarat, the spirit of scientific inquiry is finding a home in every community, inspiring young minds and nurturing the innovators who will shape the future. Jay Jawan, Jay Kishan, Jay Vigyan, and Jay Anusandhan!

Delighted to interact with the enthusiastic faculty members during the Faculty Development Program on "Innovation to Commercialization in Pharma and Healthcare" at Nirma University. From #research and #IntellectualProperty to #funding, #regulatoryscience, and #entrepreneurship, translating ideas into impactful solutions requires a collaborative ecosystem and a spirit of innovation. Empowering #educators today will inspire the next generation of innovators and accelerate the journey from the laboratory to society and for #ViksitBharat!

Wishing everyone a joyous and spiritually enriching Raja Parba.

🔬✨ Celebrating the Birth Anniversary of Charles Fabry (11 June 1867 – 11 December 1945) 🎉 Today we honor Charles Fabry, the brilliant French physicist whose discoveries transformed modern optics and atmospheric science. 🌍☀️ 🔹 Co-inventor of the Fabry–Pérot Interferometer, a revolutionary instrument still used in spectroscopy, astronomy, lasers, and precision measurements. 🔹 One of the first scientists to experimentally prove the presence of ozone in Earth's atmosphere. 🔹 Helped explain how the ozone layer protects life by absorbing harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the Sun. 🛡️🌎 💡 His work laid the foundation for advances in: 🔭 Astronomy ⚛️ Physics 🌈 Optics 🛰️ Space Science 🌍 Atmospheric Research 🔬 Spectroscopy Every time scientists study distant stars, analyze light, or monitor our atmosphere, they build upon the legacy of Charles Fabry. 🌟 Remembering a visionary scientist whose discoveries continue to illuminate the universe and protect life on Earth. #CharlesFabry #OnThisDay #BirthAnniversary #ScienceHistory #Physics #Optics #Spectroscopy #FabryPerot #FabryPerotInterferometer #AtmosphericScience #OzoneLayer #UVRadiation #EarthScience #Astronomy #SpaceScience #ScientificLegacy #Innovation #STEM #Scientist #FrenchScientist #ScienceEducation #ScienceCommunication #Research #Technology #PhysicsFacts #ClimateScience #Environment #ScienceForAll #GUJCOST #CommunityScienceCentre #CSCNavsari #Education #Learning #Inspiration #WorldOfScience #ScientificDiscovery #FutureScientists #ScienceAwareness @NASA @NASAScience @ESA @ESO @CERN @UNESCO @UN @UNEnvironment @WMO @NOAA @ISRO @IndiaDST @IndiaScience @VigyanPrasar @PIB_India @MyGovIndia @Nature @ScienceMagazine @PhysicsWorld @APSphysics @PhysicsToday @RoyalSociety @NationalGeo @WorldResources @UNDP @COP28_UAE @EarthDayOrg @UNClimateChange @STEMLearningUK

A small #invention that changed millions of lives! This #BallpointPenDay, we celebrate the vision of Hungarian brothers László and György Bíró, who patented the modern #ballpoint pen on June 10, 1943. From writing our first letters and exam answers to signing important milestones and preserving cherished memories, the humble pen has been a silent #companion in every #journey. A simple tool, yet powerful enough to turn thoughts into words and dreams into reality. #BallpointPenDay #Innovation #Writing #ScienceAndTechnology

Witness one of the most spectacular #astronomical events of the decade today on 9 June 2026! ✨ Venus and Jupiter, the two brightest #planets visible from #Earth, will appear remarkably close in the evening sky after sunset. Separated by just 1.6° about the width of three full moons, this dazzling planetary conjunction will be one of the most stunning naked-eye #sky events of the year. Come and Join the Sky Gazing programs at the Regional Science Centres (#RSCs) and Community Science Centres (#CSCs) of @InfoGujcost experience the wonder of our #SolarSystem.

आज सायंकाल का आकाश एक अद्भुत खगोलीय दृश्य प्रस्तुत करेगा - शुक्र और बृहस्पति ग्रहों का मनोहारी संयोग। हमारे सौरमंडल के दूसरे ग्रह शुक्र और पाँचवें ग्रह बृहस्पति, जो अंतरिक्ष में करोड़ों किलोमीटर दूर स्थित हैं, पृथ्वी से देखने पर एक-दूसरे के अत्यंत निकट दिखाई देंगे। इस दुर्लभ और आकर्षक खगोलीय घटना को "ग्रह युति" (Planetary Conjunction) कहा जाता है। ऐसे खगोलीय मिलन हमें याद दिलाते हैं कि ब्रह्मांड अनगिनत रहस्यों और आश्चर्यों से भरा हुआ है, जो हमारी जिज्ञासा और खोज की भावना को निरंतर प्रेरित करते हैं। हर ग्रह युति एक कहानी कहती है। हर अवलोकन एक नई जिज्ञासा जगाता है। हर प्रश्न खोज और ज्ञान के नए द्वार खोलता है। जब आज सायंकाल शुक्र और बृहस्पति आकाश में साथ-साथ चमकेंगे, तो यह अद्भुत दृश्य हमें प्रेरित करे कि हम अपनी दृष्टि क्षितिज से आगे ले जाएँ, आश्चर्य की भावना को जीवित रखें और खोज की इस अनंत यात्रा को निरंतर आगे बढ़ाएँ। आकाश की ओर देखिए। प्रश्न पूछते रहिए। और ब्रह्मांड के रहस्यों को जानने की अपनी यात्रा कभी मत रोकिए। जिज्ञासा ही खोज का प्रथम कदम है, और खोज ही मानव प्रगति का आधार।

Look west. Look up. Wonder. Explore! On 9 June 2026, the evening sky will host a rare and captivating celestial spectacle as #Venus and #Jupiter, the two brightest planets visible from #Earth, appear remarkably close together shortly after sunset. Their extraordinary meeting will mark the closest visible approach of these two worlds in the Northern Hemisphere until late 2028, offering a memorable opportunity for skywatchers of all ages. More than an astronomical event, this planetary conjunction is a reminder that we are part of a vast and interconnected cosmos, guided by the elegant laws of motion and gravity. Though separated by hundreds of millions of kilometres in space, Venus and Jupiter will appear side by side, revealing the beauty, precision, and harmony of our #SolarSystem. Such moments ignite #curiosity, inspire #discovery, and encourage us to look beyond our daily horizons toward the infinite wonders of the universe. Every #conjunction tells a story. Every #observation sparks a question. Every #question opens a new path to exploration. Let the #universe inspire you to keep looking up and never stop wondering.
