Before I joined the Astronomy Club, I was extremely curious about Physics and I think this is partly due to the completion of my IA. I also had a curiosity lingering for cosmology because of its complexity and vastness. Moreover, I was interested in what my peers were capable of when presenting concepts to me […]
