Meitei astronomy

The astronomy of Meitei civilisation deals with celestial objects, space, and the physical universe as a whole.

Meitei language term “Khenchanglon” (Meitei: ꯈꯦꯟꯆꯪꯂꯣꯟ / ꯈꯦꯟꯆꯡꯂꯣꯟ) is derived from its ancient Meitei equivalent “Khenchonglon” (Meitei: ꯈꯦꯟꯆꯣꯡꯂꯣꯟ), literally meaning "the growing up, evolving or emergence of natural / celestial body(ies) and energy(ies)" and colloquially meaning "astronomy or astronomical bodies, like stars, constellations, planets, satellites, comets, meteors, etc."

The Meitei astronomy was also related to the tradition of astrology.
