Rationale

Great advancement is taking place in astronomy and astrophysics. New frontiers of knowledge are opening up. Dark matter and dark energy are gripping the world of knowledge. Sooner than later we expect a sea change in our astrophysical studies.
And it is time to enlighten the younger generation of people,and more particularly in places where people are still smarting under disadvantages for a new prosperity.
Many of the things we're looking for are into the future. A good preparation is required so that the generation of people are not caught unprepared.
These are the rationales we must look for in our endeavors.
