Almost all of the meteors diminish in the air before they reach the earth’s surface. Whenever earth passes through a comet’s path, usually hundreds of meteors enter into the earth atmosphere every hour, we call them as meteor shower. Now few of the meteor showers happen at the same time every year as our earth passes through the comet’s orbital path. The comets are nothing but major chunks of ice that revolve around the sun in ellipsoid orbits. While revolving when they come near to the sun, intense heat from the sun melts away the comet’s surface releasing gas, dust and rocky particles. This debris released forms a tail along the revolving path of a comet. Now let us try to find out major meteor showers the earth experiences every year.Īnd when earth passes through these comet’s orbits, the debris falls into earth’s atmosphere resulting into meteor showers. Mathematica has a nice data repository about astronomy. We can pull the data for the time intervals of the major meteor showers that happen every year.

The workshop was arranged at IISER by Exciting Science Group . A total 24 students from three PMC schools attended the workshop.ĭuring the workshop, students learned how to use command line interface, how to solve problems with Wolfram|Alpha- a computable search engine on Raspberry Pi. Once they become a little comfortable in using the device, they were introduced to Mathematica and Wolfram programming language that are freely available on Raspberry Pi.

Students successfully learned to calculate even, odd, and prime numbers using Mathematica. Later on they wrote programs for simple conversions like Fahrenheit to Celsius, and more advanced like finding Palindrome numbers and Perfect Numbers. They also learned about GPIO and to connect LEDs to different pins on Raspberry Pi.About Mathematica Mathematica is the insight partner that illuminates the path to progress for changemakers.
