Observation of "Comet of the Century - Comet ISON"
After many hits and trials, on the survival of Comet ISON, after it's close suicidal encounter with Sun, flying at 1.2 million km's above it's surface, facing +2000 degrees centigrade of temperature, the bright tail of comet gradually vanished on 28th of November. Scientists consented that the nucleus of comet might have vaporized in Sun's enormous temperature, but next day, something was seen beyond the Sun.!! An emerging and brightening remnants of comet ISON, on 29th November 2013 (Indian timings), as the SOHO image revealed. A ray of hope to see the comet's bright tail is still there. Before coming to any final conclusion, let's wait for some days/hours. The orbit of comet has been a Roller coaster ride. There is possibility of Comet shining bright again. In case it does, the crowd will have an outstanding celestial show, in the upcoming week of December. Though the probability is less, Sky trackers and Astronomy researchers club, doesn't want a stone to be left unturned, in becoming a witness of this lifetime celestial show. Hence the club is going to conduct special, "Sky trackers and astronomy researchers club special ISON observation campaign (STARCSIOC), from first to third December' 2013. The Observation will be done with the help of unaided eyes, telescopes, binoculars, and other optical aids (If needed). Eventually, lectures about comet ISON, formation of Comets, and various other aspects will be discussed. Special Laser show will take place.
All the people are cordially invited to be a part of this Celestial showcase.

How to watch
Never look directly at the sun with your naked eyes. You can damage your eyes. Likewise, viewing the sun with either binoculars or a telescope can direct the sun's magnified rays directly into your eyeball and cause serious injury―think about what happens to ants under a magnifying glass. Sunglasses do not provide sufficient protection. If you know someone who works in plumbing or construction, ask them if they have any #14 welder's glass. You can look directly at the sun through this material without risking injury.
If you have a tripod or a partner and a pair of steady hands, you can use binoculars to project an image of the Sun onto a white piece of paper. Remember, don't look through your binoculars at the sun!

Tour to Hanle, Indian Astronomical Observatory (IAO) Leh, Hiamlayas
(Best Astronomical observation location in Asia and nost part of U.S. )
In the lap of nature, in midst of harsh enviroment, and temprature dropping to - 20 Degrees in December, Sky trackers and astronomy researchers club is about to send a group of students with the Managing director Sanyam kumar shrivastava, on a tour to Biggest Asian eye on sky, at highest point.
A 2-m aperture optical-infrared telescope, the Himalayan Chandra Telescope (HCT) manufactured by the EOS Technologies Inc., Tuscon, Arizona, USA is installed at IAO.
The location of the 2-m Himalayan Chandra Telescope (HCT) is to the east of the peak at an altitude of 4500 meters above msl.
In the lap of thrilling temprature and crystal clear skies, The milky way shed all its beauty. The clearity remains upto mark at that point. Its really a boon for Observational astronomers.
Amar Sharma from "Banglore Astronomical society" ( BAS ) will be joining the club for the tour. Its a privielege for Northern astronomers as well to work with an amateur and hard working persona like Amar sharma. Adducement of strength when it comes to Astronomy.
The permit has been provided by D C Office, Leh, still the Cooperation By Professor Tushar prabhu remains. After which Star club members will be celebrating their new year eve's 2012 in Himalayas.
Our club and People of Madhya Pradesh and banglore hope, the tour will be a grand success.
