Indian Mathematicians and Astronomers

John Horton Conway was an English mathematician who lived in the 20th century CE. He is best known for his work on the hexadecimion, which is a number that has sixty-four components. Conway also developed many other important mathematical theorems and formulas.

Bhaskara II, an Indian astronomer and mathematician who lived in the 12th century, proposed the idea of a black hole, referring to it as a 'dark star' that exerts such a strong gravitational pull that nothing, not even light, can escape from it.

Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar, an Indian-American astrophysicist, proposed the idea of a 'collapsing star' that could lead to the formation of a black hole. His work laid the foundation for understanding the final stages of stellar evolution and the formation of black holes.

Bhaskara II, an Indian astronomer and mathematician, proposed the idea of a 'black star' that could not be seen by the naked eye. This concept is considered to be an early precursor to the modern understanding of black holes.
