National Science Day
@Gulbarga University
Every year, India celebrates National Science Day on February 28 to commemorate the remarkable work of Indian physicist CV Raman in the field of light scattering. Known as one of the greatest scientists and an inspiration to many, Raman's work has often proved to be helpful in modern science, and his life has been a source of inspiration for many.
CV Raman was quite popular even during his learning days, as he used to top at school and university. He has made some remarkable contributions to acoustics and optics. Raman was the first person who was appointed as the Palit Professor of Physics at the Rajabazar Science College in 1917.
Why is National Science Day celebrated on February 28?
Every year, India celebrates National Science Day to remember the discovery of the Raman Effect, a discovery that also earned him the Nobel Prize in 1930 in the field of Physics. During his trip to Europe in 1921, Raman became intrigued after seeing the blue colour of the Mediterranean Sea, which led him to conduct various experiments with transparent surfaces, ice blocks, and light
