Zeroing In with Prof. Thejesh Bandi | Part 2 | On Building India's First Atomic Clock at ISRO

How do we measure time to the utmost precision? How do we even define time? What’s the need for a definition? And where does fundamental science really matter to the everyday affairs we go through?
The questions that subtly sit right beside our daily routines, and are conveniently pushed on the other side of the horizon more often than not — are the same questions that lend the modern world’s working mechanisms a precise meaning and synchronicity. On the crossroads of philosophy and physics, we discuss about the practical aspects of the frontier of the research directions that delineate the physical world around us with the man behind India’s first space-based atomic clock that was launched by ISRO in 2023, Prof. Thejesh N. Bandi.
