Introduction B.P. Koirala Memorial Planetarium, Observatory and Science Museum Development Board

Introduction

It is a known fact that the Science Museum can have very important impacts on science literacy in a country like Nepal imbued with taboos, superstition, and fatalistic attitudes. So, B.P. Koirala Memorial Planetarium, Observatory, and Science Museum Development Board was constituted by the Government of Nepal, under the Ministry of Education, Science, and Technology, in order to disseminate scientific temper and culture to the broad mass of the people.

Its main objectives are:

To establish Planetarium, Observatory and Science Museum in Nepal and to run them
To provide a new experience in science learning as well as inspire and foster science learning to the young generation and involve them in R&D activities
To disseminate scientific temper and culture to the broad mass of the people
To organize various science education programs in different parts of the country
To conduct training, research, and development activities in the field of space science
