A science journalist and writer who has been writing since 1997 on a wide range of science and technology topics. Worked with print, audio, audio-visual and online media. Over the years, he honed his skills to tell stories how we and other living organisms emerged on earth and our and their place in cosmos. He is elated to get the opportunity to write for ‘Starlust’. He hopes that it will give him scope to know, explore and portray space and its unending mystery more intimately. He is an avid reader. His favorite subjects are origin of the universe, big bang, black holes, evolution and films. The books by Carl Sagan, Paul Davies, and Lee Smolin fuel his interest in space further. His stories appeared in online magazines of Springer Nature, UK, Australian magazine ‘Cosmos’, US-based ‘Chemical & Engineering News’, London-based ‘SciDev.Net’, and India-based ‘Down To Earth’, ‘The Telegraph’, and ‘The Statesman’. He wrote scripts for science documentary films for CSIR, New Delhi, and science radio talks for ‘All India Radio’, Kolkata and did research work for an audio-visual series on zero-waste for Mumbai-based ‘Times Television Network’.
