Chandra and the 27 Nakshatras – A Sanatan Science Kids Story

Discover the fascinating story of Chandra and the 27 Nakshatras!

What if an ancient mythological story could also help children understand the night sky?

In this beautifully illustrated Sanatan Science Kids comic, a father takes his children on an exciting journey through the story of Chandra, Prajapati Daksha, his 27 daughters, and Lord Shiva.

The story introduces children to the 27 Nakshatras and gradually connects the ancient story with astronomy and geometry. Children discover how the Moon appears to travel through the celestial sky and how the 360° circle can be divided into 27 equal sections of 13°20′ each.

Through colourful comic panels, mythology, simple explanations and visual science, children explore:
