Question

information about observatories in India
Givea brief answer it's my assignment ​

Answer 1

Answer:

India has an ancient astronomical tradition. Information on its observatories is meager, however. It is certain that a number of prominent astronomers, patronized by kings, carried out their own observations, which are mentioned in karaṇas, or practical manuals. The places of such observations, if operated for a reasonable period of time, technically could be called observatories. A court astronomer, Śaṅkaranārāyaṇa (fl. 869), mentions such a place with instruments in the capital city of king Ravi Varmā of Kerala. Astronomers of the Islamic school of astronomy, such as ˓Abd al‐Rashīd al‐Yāqūtī (fifteenth century) report an observatory in the city of Jājilī in India. The Emperor Humayun (d. 1556) is said to have had a personal observatory at Kotah, near Delhi, where he himself took observations.
