Team "Green Lanterns" consisting of SK Sajidul Islam , Lamia Tabassum Naboni (Secretary of Public Relations, IUTFIS) and Lulu Um Marzana, were named Champion in the Energy Transition category at the grand finale of Our Planet, Our Responsibility Season 5, the Climate Justice Idea Competition jointly organised by ActionAid Bangladesh and The Daily Star.

In a country like Bangladesh, where widespread poverty is compounded by skyrocketing fuel prices, over hundreds of thousands of country boats across inland waterways struggle to survive under mounting financial strain. To make matters worse, these riverways are burdened by aging diesel engines maintained in dire conditions, patched together with makeshift spare parts. These inefficient, degrading motors constantly dump toxic oil into our waters and release heavy emissions into the air, driving severe aquatic and atmospheric pollution across our nation.

Their winning project, “Surjo Ghat”, directly confronts this crisis through an innovative solar-hybrid retrofit designed for existing boats without replacing them entirely. By fitting a battery, electric motor and onboard panel alongside a community solar charging station at the ghat, while retaining the original engine purely as a zero-risk backup, the project cuts diesel dependence drastically. Grounded in field research at Hajirhat Bazar Ghat in Dumki, Patuakhali, their solution pairs sustainable technology with accessible financial models like free trials and flexible rental options, ensuring that fuel savings naturally pay for the system over time.

Heartiest congratulations to Team Green Lanterns from The IUT Al-Fazari Interstellar society for this stellar milestone, and we wish them endless success as they continue to lead the charge toward a cleaner, sustainable future!

Two years have passed, yet the void left by the loss of Jahiduzzaman Tanvin bhai remains as profoundly felt as ever.

An extraordinary IUT alumnus, a visionary leader as the CTO of ANTS, and a soul full of flight, Tanvin bhai’s brilliance illuminated the drone industry. But beyond his incredible engineering feats, it was his courage during the July 2024 revolution that defined his true legacy. When student voices were threatened, he stood firmly for justice and tragically fell to the violence meant to silence that hope.

Today, IUTFIS remembers him not just for the heights he reached in his career, but for the depth of his bravery. Time cannot erase the impact of a soul who risked everything for a fairer tomorrow. May his memory continue to inspire us, and may his legacy live on in our unwavering resolve for a just, free, and righteous society.

Always remembered, never forgotten.

In solemn memory of Jahiduzzaman Tanvin bhai.

The IUT Al-Fazari Interstellar Society would like to congratulate team ‘Reality Check’ - specifically our very own Noshin Syara Promitee (Assistant Secretary of Public Relation of IUTFIS), Maliha Mehnaj and Tasnia Rahman Maha for achieving dual gold medals in the International Innovation and Invention Competition (I3C) 2026 and the Innovation World Cup (IWC) 2026 for their project on Multi-modal deepfake detection AI. In times like ours, shadowed by the threat of mass misinformation, their innovative work stands as a shield for our collective safety. By confronting this growing global menace, these brilliant minds actively fight the forces that jeopardize our digital well-being. Their proactive dedication nullifies profound dangers
before they can take root.

Their project uses a multi-modal approach to analyze videos and media from different sources, enabling it to identify deepfakes and other forms of synthetic content with greater accuracy.
Multi-modal deepfake detection is an advanced AI security approach that analyzes multiple types of data streams simultaneously (such as video, audio, text and metadata) to determine if digital media has been synthetically altered or completely fabricated.

The society stands in admiration of your success, and we offer our warmest wishes for your triumphs yet to come.

As the sacred days of Dhul Hijjah grace us once again, they bring a timeless message written across generations, one of deep and total trust in Allah’s wisdom. This holy occasion teaches us the true essence of Qurbani: to sacrifice our own desires without hesitation, to purify our hearts with piety and to embody the spirit of selflessness. Through these acts of devotion, we are reminded that true sacrifice brings immense growth, and it is through our ultimate submission that we earn Allah's infinite mercy and light.

"Say, 'Indeed, my prayer, my rites of sacrifice, my living and my dying are for Allah, Lord of the worlds.'"

— Surah Al-An'am [6:162]

May this sacred Eid inspire us to strengthen our bonds, uplift those in need, and fill our hearts with gratitude and peace. May Allah accept our prayers and sacrifices and bless us all with endless compassion. IUTFIS wishes you and your family a joyous, peaceful and blessed Eid-Ul-Adha. Eid Mubarak!

We live in a country where justice is too often denied. What once felt like propaganda has now become a brutal reality. Time passes, seasons change and generations come and go, yet one thing remains constant: power only changes hands, while the actions of those in power stay the same.

People are becoming victims simply because they were born here. We have reached a point where even asking for justice feels meaningless, because deep down, everyone already knows the outcome. The youth of this country no longer dream of luxury or extravagance; they now dream only of survival. So who is to blame?

What can we expect from a society where good people are silenced before they can create change? Amid all this, children are paying the ultimate price. But for what? What was their fault?

We at IUTFIS demand full accountability for Ramisa and for every other innocent life taken away too soon and without reason.

Long before we looked toward the stars, we looked up at the person who made everything feel possible.

A mother is that steady soul who quietly carries your burdens, masking her own tired spirit just to ensure yours stays bright. She’s the person who remembers the tiny wins you’ve already forgotten and the one whose belief in you stays steady, even when you’re struggling to find it yourself. It’s a kind of love that’s built on a thousand silent sacrifices, the ones she never mentions, but we feel every single day.

At IUT Al-Fazari Interstellar Society, we’re taking a moment to celebrate the women who are our real-life anchors. Thank you for the endless patience, the late nights, and for being the warmth we always come back to.

Happy Mother’s Day to the quiet starlight that brightens our world.

Look at the night sky. The stars seem scattered at random. Early humans connected the brightest points of light. They built a massive celestial coordinate system. Constellations were our first great feat of global cartography. They formed a fixed reference grid over the entire planet.

This grid served as a purely scientific tool. Early civilisations relied on predictable orbital mechanics. They tracked the heliacal rising of specific star groups. This precise optical measurement told agricultural societies exactly when to plant crops. Oceanic navigators used these fixed stellar waypoints to cross vast dark seas. The night sky functioned as an enormous mechanical clock.

Over time this strict science shifted. Humans possess an intense biological drive for pattern recognition. Early observers noticed terrestrial seasons changed as different constellations appeared. They slowly began to confuse orbital correlation with physical causality. They assumed distant plasma spheres exerted active forces on human events. The rigid geometry of celestial measurement birthed the system of astrology. A strictly cartographic framework transformed into a predictive superstition.

Modern astronomy discarded this predictive overlay centuries ago. Yet constellations remain completely vital to observational science. We look outward into an infinitely deep sky. We must partition this massive visual space. The International Astronomical Union divided the celestial sphere into eighty eight distinct regions.

Constellations are no longer visual stick figures. They are strictly defined geometric zones with precise boundary coordinates. Every stellar object or distant galaxy possesses a specific regional address. A transient celestial event like a supernova requires rapid global communication. Astronomers announce the event occurs within the boundaries of Orion or Cygnus. This standardized nomenclature instantly directs automated telescopes to the correct spatial sector.

The ancient visual patterns still serve their original cartographic purpose. They organize the overwhelming volume of the cosmos. Our physical understanding of the universe has expanded entirely beyond early human vision. Yet we still map deep space using the fundamental architecture of our ancestors.
