The Significance of Astrolabes
Data centers By HEC

The name ‘Astrolabes’ is derived after the legendary ‘Maryam al-Ijliya, also known as Mariam al Astrulabi’, who revolutionized the ancient astrolabes devices used by stargazers to help them navigate across oceans, identify the mathematical positioning of celestial bodies including the Sun, planets, and distant stars, direction of the Qibla (Mecca, Saudi Arabia) and even follow the daily five Muslims prayers at the precise timings denoted by the Holy Quran. Hailing from Syria back in the 10th Century, Maryam was not only able to enhance the intricate design of the astrolabes but also contributed to improving the models of the universe presented by the Ptolemaic and Aristotelian systems. HEC has dedicated its datacenters to appreciating the efforts of Maryam who still makes commendable contributions to modern-day astronomy. Pakistanis today will be able to navigate the digital realm with more ease, efficiency, and ultimate security while remembering and appreciating the great scientists along the way.
