An Indian scientist has led a pioneering NASA mission, launched during the recent total solar eclipse.

Aroh Barjatya, a professor of Engineering Physics at Florida’s Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, who also oversees the Space and Atmospheric Instrumentation Lab at the institution, was instrumental in the successful launch of three rockets during the solar eclipse.

Expressing his gratitude, Barjatya extended heartfelt thanks to his collaborators from various institutions, the exceptional students at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, and the dedicated teams at NASA Wallops Sounding Rocket Program Office and NASA Goddard Space Flight Center.

“I am deeply grateful to all my fellow researchers and the remarkably capable students at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, as well as, most importantly, to everyone at NASA Wallops Sounding Rocket Program Office and NASA Goddard Space Flight Center for their invaluable contributions to our success!” Barjatya conveyed in a LinkedIn post following the launch.

Barjatya’s academic journey traces back to Patalganga near Mumbai, where he did his schooling before moving on to various cities including Hyderabad, Jaipur, Pilani, and Solapur.

His pursuit of knowledge led him to earn an Electronics Engineering degree at the Walchand Institute of Technology, Solapur.

In 2001, Barjatya crossed oceans to pursue a master’s degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering at Utah State University in the United States.

His academic journey reached its zenith with a PhD in spacecraft instrumentation from the university’s Research Foundation.

Armed with over 16 years of experience in space systems engineering and aerospace instrumentation research, Barjatya has cemented his reputation as a luminary in his field.

On April 8, NASA embarked on a groundbreaking mission, deploying three “Atmospheric Perturbations around Eclipse Path (APEP)” sounding rockets during the solar eclipse.

This mission aimed to delve into the intricacies of Earth’s upper atmosphere when sunlight briefly dims over a region of the planet.
