   Why is Meghnad Saha important?

   • ‘Meghnad Saha’s place in the history of astrophysics and in the history of modern science in India is unique’, wrote Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar (1910-95). Saha’s theory of thermal ionisaiton, which explained the origin of stellar spectra, was one of India’s most important contributions to world science during the 20th century.

   What is Meghnad Saha equation?

   • Meghnad Saha’s equations would further help answer other riddle of astrophysics like the precise temperatures of stars, chemical and physical conditions of stars. By observing spectrum of a star, one can deduce, using Saha Equation, its temperature and ionisation state of various elements making the star.

   Was Meghnad Saha India's first astrophysicist?

   • Embarrassed by the boy’s denunciations, the school authorities immediately expelled him. Now, more than a century later, this boy is recognised by many as India’s first astrophysicist. Meghnad Saha, born on 6 October 1893, has even been called the “Darwin of astronomy” by the international press.
