Astronomy has always been a favored field of study for Muslim scholars, with luminaries such as Al-Biruni, Ibn Yunus, Al-Fazari, and Ibn Al-Shatir making groundbreaking contributions. The legacy of this science traces back to the golden era of Cordoba in Andalusia, where the pursuit of knowledge and scientific inquiry reached remarkable heights.
In 1999, the United Nations declared October 4-10 as World Space and Astronomy Week to highlight the importance of space science and its role in shaping our future.
