"Vadodara Scientist's Role in NASA Mission and the Impact of Total Solar Eclipses"
Dr. Aroh Barjatya, a rocket scientist from Vadodara, was the principal investigator of NASA's rocket mission to study disturbances in the ionosphere during a solar eclipse. The mission, which involved launching three rockets from Virginia, aims to understand the impact of eclipse-induced disturbances on satellite and radio communications. Aroh, who led the mission, has been fascinated with space since childhood and completed his education in the USA. His family in Vadodara celebrated the successful launch, and he named the rockets after his children.
