This fond consist of the newspaper clippings on the coverage related to Halley comet.

The fond contain newspaper clippings on Astronomy: Ionosphere reading of stars. This states that the Indian astrophysicists propose that the Earth's ionosphere disturbances caused by X-ray bursts (XAY BIRT) could signal stellar activity. This alerts astronomers to phenomena like Sc X1's X-ray emissions. Detecting the impact of stars on the ionosphere is challenging due to background interference, with debates on ionization and magnetic field effects. Dr. Sastri and Dr. Murthy's experimental study reveals a significant magnetic field increase during a Sc X1 flare. Understanding the ionosphere's response to X-rays, including gamma rays from catastrophic stellar events, may offer a distinctive detection method for monitoring space events, aiding astronomers in decoding cosmic phenomena efficiently.
