Always amazed with celestial stuff I waited long to get in high school so that I would get the opportunity to study Physics and get hoards of knowledge in Astronomy. But alas our Physics course had very limited readings on Astronomy! Later on while searching in a library I found the book "For the Love of Physics" by Walter Lewin. I didn't know that this would be a life changing reading for me. So, coming back home I finished it as fast as I could with huge excitement. It was stuffed with so much knowledge on celestial objects and happenings that I felt, although my course didn't have enough astronomy topics I had gained enough knowledge through outside reading.
Later I discovered that even that wasn't enough because all there was in the book, was just the basics of a Astronomy and to keep myself improving in this subject I had to do further reading. From then I kept searching on the internet and kept reading what ever I found interesting, expanding the circumference of my knowledge. Still I am carrying out this endeavor of "Astronomy reading" to be ever better in my desired subject of study. That is the Meliora experience of my life.
