Welcome to Raman Science Centre, Nagpur

The Raman Science Centre Nagpur is an interactive science center affiliated with Nehru Science Centre Mumbai. The center was developed to promote a scientific attitude, portray the growth of science and technology and their applications in industry and human welfare, and hold science exhibits. The centre is named after famous Nobel Prize winner Indian physicist Chandrasekhara Venkata Raman. The Raman Science Centre was inaugurated on 7 March 1992 and the planetarium was started on 5 January 1997.

It is an exciting world on the bank of Gandhi Sagar. Here Science is no more a subject but an experience. Here science is a thing to play with & learn. Here one is free to spend a whole day in play with hands-on exhibits-press lever, turn wheels, roll balls, pull strings, press the buttons, look through the peepholes to make science work & enjoy. One can discover that, here concept of science is different: It is sheer fun.

Vaccine Trivia –  Smallpox, a highly contagious and deadly viral disease, was successfully eradicated from India through a concerted effort led by the Indian Government in collaboration with international organizations such as the World Health Organization (WHO).  The smallpox eradication efforts in India includes mass vaccination campaigns, surveillance and rapid response, containment and isolation, intensive vaccination in outbreak areas, health worker training, community engagement etc. Over time, these efforts led to a dramatic decline in smallpox cases in India. The last known case of naturally occurring smallpox in India was reported in 1975. Subsequently, the country was officially declared free of smallpox by the WHO in 1977. The successful eradication of smallpox in India serves as a testament to the effectiveness of vaccination, surveillance, and international collaboration in tackling infectious diseases. It also highlights the importance of determined efforts and the dedication of healthcare workers and officials in achieving public health milestones. International traveling exhibition ‘Vaccine Injecting Hope’ is on display at Raman Science Centre and Planetarium, Nagpur from 5 August to 31 December 2023 from 9.30 am to 6.00 pm. Please visit the exhibition and communicate the message to your near and dear ones.
