Astronomy Research

When we look up at the night sky, we see the beautiful twinkling of stars filling the sky. Under this twinkling light lies an immense laboratory for astronomers to study the nature of planets, stars, and the universe to understand the origins of the cosmos and life itself. This research aims to answer our childhood questions, such as whether extraterrestrial life exists, how our world came to be, or even the origin of the universe.

NARIT conducts astronomical research in various fields, exploring extrasolar planets beyond our solar system, studying the evolution of stars at different wavelengths, investigating distant galaxies, black holes, and gravitational waves, and examining the Earth's atmosphere's impact on astronomical observations. This research extends to Thailand, including the study of cultural wisdom related to astronomy, reflecting the historical community practice
