Aha Octopus

It’s your favorite eight-legged science teacher, the mighty Aha Octopus! As a highly curious creature, I’m always exploring the depths of science and discovering new wonders of the natural world. I’m also a champion problem-solver. Whether I’m camouflaging myself to avoid predators or figuring out how to open a tricky jar, I’m always up for a challenge.

So what we do at Aha Octopus?

The main aim of this volunteer-led club is to take science to the larger mass. We also debunk myths and misinformation in science in regional languages, Indian Sign Language and English. We follow the path led by visionaries like Narendra Dabholkar, Gauri Lankesh, and Kalburgi to instil a scientific spirit and curiosity among the Indian masses.

If you are interested in joining hands with us, do ping me at a.sivashakthi@gmail.com

Note – We have currently put a rain check on the club’s activities as we are giving it a facelift. We will be back soon!
