India, Oct. 17 -- Dr Ramya Manjunath Anche, who works as an assistant research professor at the Steward Observatory at the University of Arizona, has been picked to be the principal investigator for NASA's PUFFINS mission. The mission seeks to understand the small particles of dust that exist in the space outside of the stars. It will be launched in 2030 and has a budget of $20 million.

This will assist in improving knowledge on interstellar dust since it affects light in space and is a key factor in the process of star and planet formation. It is significant in the career of Dr Anche because it incorporates all the skills she has in astronomy, optics, and observations from space.
