Udaipur Solar Observatory - Observatory in Udaipur - Udaipur, India

One of the finest observatory of India. They are doing observationsbof sun in the visible range.. With this telescope they are having GONG telescope which is part of global network.. And in radio array also they do sun's observation.. Nice to visit such place if you are interested in astronomy..

The Udaipur Solar Observatory (USO) is in Udaipur, Rajasthan in India on an island in the Fateh Sagar Lake.[1] The sky conditions at Udaipur are quite favourable for solar observations. Since the observatory is situated amidst a large mass of water, air turbulence which occurs due to ground heating by sun's rays is decreased. This improves the image quality and accuracy (average between 1-2 arc seconds).

If you want to relax, please do visit place like this. Boating facilities are available but charges are quite high. Speed boating(3 min 220 rupees/Person) and some other boating (30 min 220 rupees)

This improves the image quality and accuracy (average between 1-2 arc seconds). Solar Physics is one of the major areas of research at the Physical Research Laboratory (PRL). The dedicated research group in solar physics is based at the Udaipur Solar Observatory (USO) in Udaipur. The well-equipped ground-based solar observation facility at Udaipur is known globally for highest quality observational solar research. The major science goals of solar physics research group are to understand the physics of solar oscillations, evolution of sunspots, sunspot fine structure, MHD processes in the solar atmosphere, coronal heating, solar eruptions and space weather prediction. Solar research group extensively utilizes data obtained from both ground-based and space-based instruments together with numerical simulations to address key research problems in solar physics. Scientists are also involved in design, development, and operation of various ground-based and space-based instruments.

The Udaipur Solar Observatory is in Udaipur, Rajasthan on an island in the Fateh Sagar Lake. Currently the observatory is closed for visits. Fateh Sagar lake is a tourist attraction for boating in Udaipur. In order to take a closer look at this observatory from outside boating services are available where the boat rides are available in order to carry the tourist around the lake. The boat service also makes sure that the tourist could watch and have a closer look of the observatory from all sides. An artist is also on board who plays Ravanahatha ( an instrument) for entertainment of the people on board.

Solar observatory is located on island inside Fateh Sagar lake. This is one of the best solar observatory in India. This has a variety of telescopes, high-resolution solar chromospheric, magnetic field, velocity, and spectral observations, for studies pertaining to solar flares, mass ejections, and the evolution of solar active regions. Since 1981, USO has been managed by the Physical Research Laboratory, Ahmedabad, for the Department of Space, Government of India.

One of the Brilliant project done in Udaipur Rajasthan for city Development also it's helps to utilize nature solar energy and it's sufficient for mass Business development by scientist and we are also much happy for joining such wonder project.

It is a beautiful place. People here are highly knowledgeable. Must go here if you are interested in telescopes.
