About YATS 2025

Like last year, this year also YATS will be conducted in hybrid mode! It will be conducted physically in different schools and students also can participate virtually. Take the test to get shortlisted for the Grand Finale. The winners will win exciting prizes!

The theme for YATS 2025 is "STARGAZER TODAY, GAGANNAUT TOMORROW," which outlines the progression from budding interest to active space exploration. It celebrates the stargazers of today—young minds captivated by the cosmos, fostering their present-day wonder and scientific inquiry. Simultaneously, it inspires them to become the Gagannauts (space travellers) of tomorrow, envisioning a future where their passion translates into significant contributions to space science, technology, and human spaceflight. This theme is a powerful call to action, transforming childhood dreams of observing the universe into tangible aspirations for shaping India's future in space.

Stay tuned for more details.
