ASTRO photography is very expensive hobby. He is lucky to have rich parents
Exactly I can only do it with my phone 🥲
im pretty sure he is borrowing the telescope from the amateur association he joined
Nice excuse.👌
🙏🏼
@@sushree5683 You are kind of correct but in the end having such expensive equipment and powerful PC he used to combine all those images allowed him to make that image. Not too mention the DSLR he used. He would not have done it without all these so it is what it is.
@@ashyouknow7420 exactly
It's really an expression of how passionate he is about astronomy cause he did not just sit admiring other's work but also took action and put up his own efforts.
Bro its astronomy, astrology is another shit
He is Marathi man
What is the cost of equipment?
@@elbichothegoat2464 that's what I'm talking about, I really admire people like you because you would use the opportunity and not procrastinate if you would get the right equipments :
Ok.Ok.Okay ! 😁
This guy is from my school. My mother was his teacher...those saying he is lucky to have rich parents are just negative minded. He developed a hobby and made a success out of it. He has worked hard for it.
The story was not about the MOON at all its about the boy!
How sad that they didnt even focused on the photos of the moon its jjust glimpse of the moon WHAT A JOKE?
True story. Aaaaand, he is rich.
There’s always that one “I knew him personally and he’s a great guy”… no one cares. Money talks. You’ll never figure that out
Fake claim
@@SPIN_89someone from his bloodline chose to put the work in, this guy made the best use of what he had. sure having the resources can be very important but imagine if the greatest minds had the same mindset. “i don’t have this and that so i might as well not even try.” What this guy did is very impressive, the resources he had doesn’t change that.
Those who is bullying him for his good economical background. Let me say you, when you have money , you have much more beutiful ways to get ditracted, get spoilt. This man gave that wealth a good direction by achieving such beutiful hobby. Kudos to this guy. Shame on trollers
The fact that most indian parents refuse to even buy their kid a cricket kit (me included). Idk how this 16yo guy managed to have that Astrophotography setup worth lakhs. Hats off.
Obviously he is from a upper middle class family
@@aadiliqbalkhan8216 its not about upper middle class family if you make your parents believe that you can make future in it they will buy you that thing
Edit : To all the people saying that I'm upper class I'm SC and surname is jakhu and my parents are supportive unlike yours and a mulla like him always divides people in society like they do in their own countries like syria arabia shia sunni etc
@@Aditya33789 ......
Edit:- I replied to a diff comment but seems like I lit a fire in the comments
@@irenerayne7332 can you name some please?
@@chandan-shinde at least someone with a brain .
Some take topic anywhere😞
1. Scouting and finding location
2. Being disciplined to wait for moonrise
3. Waiting for perfect shot alignment
4. Monotiring hours long of shots
5. Editing 36 hrs to achieve perfection
6. Not sleeping for 2 days
7. Uploading
But no, all everyone focussed on was the PRICE of his telescope
they should be. there are lots of people with what you described. but not everyone gets the chance to get hands on those equipment. the whole reason that many people commented about the money should tell you not everyone get the same chances or are in circumstances like he is. the real world isnt like in the movies. you could work all year non stop and grind like in those motivational videos but it sometimes wont turn out like this.
As they should
Not everyone gets the chance to get those, imagine if anyone can have access to those.
@@conspiracy1914 You have your mobile phone with you, tell me what you have achieved till now with it? As you know lakhs of people alone in india are earning by using their different skills through a mobile phone.
@@AmAn-xk9bm "using their different" see that should tell you. not everyone also has the same skill. not everyone has enough money to get the latest phone too. so does that mean he should learn other skills to first earn enough to buy the phone so he can learn even more skill to earn to get that telescope. why isnt everyone like steve jobs? thats the kind of question you are asking. they cannot be even if they tried or wanted to be.
are you earning lakhs through your phone? if not WHY not? what i am looking for is reasons
I am so proud of this young Man! It is such a joy to see stories from around the globe of young people enjoying science! Unfortunately, Western society does not celebrate news like this about other cultures enough! Much love and support from Texas!
If only he was black. Disney would make a doc out of him 🤷🏼♂️
Congratulations and Best Wishes to you, Prathamesh. I can only imagine the excitement and Pride you have created in Pune. Kudos to you, young man.
Dude was feeling sleepy, so he decided to take shots of moon. Chand ne inko taare dikha di.
Update: For those who didn't understand the context of the comment and had been raging in the reply section.
He was feeling sleepy, so he took photos of the moon to avoid sleep & make the time productive. He then uploaded it on the internet but he never thought these shots are the most clear photo of the moon & these pictures would get so viral. That's why I said "Chand ne inko taare dikha di".
Advice for you guys: Improve your thought process, try to think about anything from different perspectives & be positive. Your life is negative but that doesn't mean everyone is negative.
Very negative thought
@Shayad rather than saying chand ne inko taare dikha diya you should say chaand ne inko Taara bana diya star ⭐ he is a gem of the person and doing this seems easy but takes lots of research hard work and learning .... Very proud of you Prathamesh you rock 🤘 boy
This is the example how shits born to ruin good work
Useless comment just like your mindset
He took photos of only moon as he was sleepy,he wanted to capture Jupiter and Saturn originally.
He literally takes" My hobby is photography " to a whole different level.... Keep up the good work bro🤞
He still got expensive equipments, the colours are not possible to capture with ordinary telescopes without extremely expensive physical filters. One filter costs like $5000, imagine having multiple filters. If he didn't use physical filters, then the colours are just fake photoshopped.++++.+.+.+.+

thats awesome me too

It's not about being rich enough to get that huge gadget. It's about determination. Many richer kids usually spoil themselves. He isn't that rich, but still making India proud.

I love this guy. I love his passion for what he does. He's the blueprint for what we all should be. Well done, Sir!
Wow. I didn't even hear about this. What an amazing kid. He is extremely intelligent and will go far. His passion for Astro photography is beautiful to see. Many of us don't know what to do with our lives and he found something cool. To edit all the photos together to make the moon is brilliant. That takes time. I'm so glad he is getting such praise and recognition for his hard work. I need to look up his social media to follow him because I'm sure it's just the beginning. Great story
😊yeah
He has immense passion towards astrophotography...May he achieve new heights..❤️
Fantastic images. So many images he took, to be able to layer them into a brilliant clear picture of our moon. Wonderful work by someone so young and new to astrophotography. 👏
Mate, your story is inspiring. What an amazing opportunity for this kid ❤
Hi Prathamesh, if you see this comment I want to say that I am deeply inspired by your work. I am a 17 year old and a huge space enthusiast caught up in the crappy education system. I want to pursue aerospace engineering to get a chance in world's top space organizations. But this video has proved that there is no right time to achieve what you desire. I promise I will do something about it. Thank you National Geographic for posting this.
Feels bad for you since there is a very low chance you can do it in india
Yeah India's ed system is indeed crappy but many great, highly educated and talented people have come out of this same system too. So be optimistic. Do more research and you will find the right method to reach your dream! Most importantly, don't give up! More power to you!
Best of luck to you!
@@shreeyyyyy Thank you for your motivating words. Currently, I am focused on cracking JEE.

@@protapsen1910 India has ISRO but it's really hard to convince Indian parents to allow us to have astrophysics or astro-photography as a career. So even though many people have such talents they don't show it to the world since they don't get encouraged

Amazing work Prathamesh! You found a passion and went all in - that's what creates the magic. Hope you continue this momentum and achieve new heights in astronomy. All the best!
Among the crowd of people taking reels tiktok shorts, there was guy with brilliant vision and amazing click 👌🏻😍
Truly amazing job by this young kid...brightest mind of India
It’s heartwarming to see such passion in a young person.
What a beautiful video I just saw today. As a Sri Lankan I am so proud that an Indian boy took this pic with so much effort and dedication towards it without proper sleep.
Not everyone even more passionate about this is Lucky enough to follow his or her passion ❤💔
His success is truly privileged. Everyone can do this when having such expensive technical setup
Amazing stuff. It’s fascinating how he combined all the frames in one image.
He's 16 years old, hold your praise.
There's a bunch of lies being made here.
Where did he even get the equipment?
Literally everyone:- wow!!This boy has so much talent at this very young age and doing a great work toward his passion.
