Welcome to another episode of Kalam Astro — your go-to show for the latest in space exploration and astronomy!
We start today's episode with something for the passionate stargazers and astrophotography enthusiasts among us — how to image the planets using a telescope and camera. Whether you're a complete beginner or a seasoned observer looking to sharpen your skills, we walk through the essential equipment, techniques, and settings you need to capture stunning planetary images right from your own backyard. The planets are closer than you think — and your camera is ready!
Then, in a thought-provoking discussion that raises serious questions about humanity's relationship with space — will the new Moon race turn Earth's nearest neighbour into a dumping ground? With nations and private companies rushing to the lunar surface in an unprecedented wave of missions, concerns are growing about the long-term impact of human activity on the Moon. We explore what responsible exploration should look like and whether the international community is doing enough to protect our closest cosmic companion.
Next, a major development in global space cooperation — NASA has invited India's space agency ISRO to join its Moon base programme, marking a significant deepening of ties between the United States and India in space exploration. This milestone signals a new era of strategic partnership between two of the world's most ambitious spacefaring nations, and we discuss what India's involvement could mean for the future of the lunar Gateway and beyond.
And finally, a wonderful update that will be music to the ears of everyone in the UAE — the intense summer heat is set to gradually ease as the star Suhail rises on the 24th of August 2026. A beloved astronomical tradition in the Arab world, the rising of Suhail has for centuries marked the turning of the season and the welcome arrival of cooler days ahead. A beautiful reminder of how deeply the stars are woven into the culture and heritage of this region. 🌟
