- ABOUT US
From an Apartment Terrace to the Moon, We're Making Space Science Belong to Everyone
CSTERC Techno Science LLP is a Coimbatore-based space science & technology company designing telescopes, running NASA-affiliated student research programmes, and building India’s first grassroots lunar-habitation simulation.
What started in 2020 on a residential apartment terrace in Bengaluru, with a handful of students looking up at the sky, has grown into one of the most impactful grassroots space science organisations.

Making Space Science Accessible to Everyone
CSTERC Techno Science LLP is on a mission to bring space science and technology within reach of every student, school, and community across India. From building your own telescope to searching for undiscovered asteroids and sending real payloads to near-space, we turn the universe from something you read about into something you experience, hands-on, guided by mentors, and backed by genuine research partnerships.
India's fastest-growing school astronomy programme with Bronze, Silver & Gold tiers and formal graduation ceremonies.
