In spite of arranging public events for over 10 years, this particular event was quite a new experience for Khagol Vishwa. The response from people was overwhelming and it showed the great curiosity common people have, about Astronomy. Everyone including young children to elders were willing to stand in queue for hours to have glimpse of Saturn or Moon up close through Telescope.

We have to give a due credit to our young members (Darpan Lohade, Aakash Karvande, Kiran Thombare, Nisha Waghere, Geetanjali Bhoir and Snehal Shinde, all of them have given 10th Exam) as well, who were there with the telescope everyday, tracking Saturn and moon for 4-5 hours continuously, answering the questions of young Children and communicating with other people. The event wouldn't have been successful without them. None of them had ever volunteered for such a huge program before and it was a learning experience for them as well. When asked about their experiences, all of them echoed the feeling that people, especially young children are very curious about Astronomy in general. All of them feel that on the backdrop of IYA, organisations should come out and arrange more and more programs like these to popularize Astronomy among common people.
