Book Summary
About the Book: The Story of Astronomy in India
Humans have always been fascinated and excited on observing the sun, the moon
and the stars, and their rising and setting. As the human race evolved and
mastered agriculture and domesticating animals, seasons and weather became key
to their livelihoods. It was perhaps at this stage that the humans developed the
rudiments of the subject which we now call astronomy, which helped them know in
advance when to sow a particular crop and when to reap it. It was necessary to
keep a record of the passage of time and to observe natural phenomena that
repeat periodically.
