Rocket carries India into select space club with indigenous cryogenic engine technology

ISRO'S NEW GSLV SERIES EMBRACE EARTHS ORBIT..

NOW INDIA HAS ALSO JOINED THE LIST OF THE COUNTRIES WHICH HAVING SPACE-FAIRING WITH INDIGENOUS CRYOGENIC ENGINE TECHNOLOGY .. VIZ .. INDIA IS NOW BESIDES THE 5 COUNTRIES US, JAPAN, RUSSIA, CHINA AND FRANCE..

Here is a chunk of excerpt from THE ECONOMIC TIMES..

India on Sunday joined the select league of space-faring nations with indigenous cryogenic engine technology, successfully launching its rocket that put a communication satellite in orbit. 

The mission's success not only paves the way for the Indian space agency to save launch costs paid to foreign space agencies but also to launch more communication satellites augmenting the transponder capacity to earn more revenue. 

The Indian space scientists' toil of around two decades in conceiving the more efficient cryogenic engine technology, which provides more thrust for every kilogram of propellant, spending around Rs.400 crore seems to have come to fruition with the delivery of the GSAT-14 in the outer space. 

At precisely 4.18 p.m., the Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle-Development 5 (GSLV D5) with a deep roar rose into sky with a thick orange flame at its tail, breaking away from the second launch pad here at the Satish Dhawan Space Centre. 

Around 17 minutes into the flight, the 49.13-metre tall, 414.75- tonne GSLV-D5 rocket slung the 1,982-kg GSAT-14 in the intended orbit. 

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) was to launch this rocket last August but aborted the blast-off just hours before the deadline as fuel started leaking from its second stage or engine. 

ISRO's scientists at the mission control centre were visibly happy with Sunday's blast-off. They back-slapped and hugged one another once the rocket ejected the 1,982-kg GSAT-14 into the intended .

         HOCKEY KA JAADUGHAR
                                              -DHYAN CHAND

India’s National Sports Day is observed on the birthday of Dhyan Chand, 

Dhyan Chand

nicknamed the ‘Wizard of Hockey’. He was born Dhyan Singh.  He joined the Indian Army at the age of 16. The Hindi word Chand literally means the moon. Since Dhyan Singh used to practice a lot during night after his duty hours, he invariably used to wait for the moon to come out so that the visibility in the field (during his era there were no flood lights) improved. Hence he was called “Chand” by his fellow players, as his practice sessions at night invariably coincided with the coming out from the moon.

In the 1936 Berlin Olympics, Dhyan Chand, who was the captain of the Indian Hockey team, had the distinction of scoring 11 out of 38 goals scored by his side. Adolf Hitler, the Fuhrer, was very impressed by Dhyan Chand’s performance in the final, where India whipped Germany 8-1 in front of 40,000 peoples. At a dinner party after the final, Hitler offered to elevate Dhyan Chand to the rank of a Colonel if he migrated to Germany. Ever the patriot, Dhyan Chand turned down the offer.

 At the tour of hockey tournment at united states, India had played 37 matches, winning 34, drawing 2, with one abandoned. Chand scored 133 of the 338 Indian goals.In Indian language he is known as Hockey ka jaadugar that means magician of the hockey game. It is said he used to practice on railway track and what he do is he keeps the ball on one of the track and keep playing it up to 1 to 2 km without letting it to be fallen. 

India’s highest award for lifetime achievement in sports is the Dhyan Chand Award, which has been awarded annually from 2002 and it is the highest award in sports. he achieved many awards and many honors. He MADE A RECORD OF 1000 GOALS career, from 1926 to 1948.

In 1956, at the age of 51, he retired from the army with the rank of Major. After he retired he coached for a while and later settled in Jhansi. However, the last days of Dhyan Chand were not very happy, as he was short of money and was badly ignored by the nation. Once he went to a tournament in Ahmedabad and they turned him away not knowing who he was. He developed liver cancer, and was sent to a general ward at the AIIMS, New Delhi, where he died on 3 December 1979.

        In honour to his trenched sportsmanship in hockey the national stadium at delhi was renamed as           DHYAN CHAND NATIONAL STADIUM by indian govt. in 2002 . And a statue was laid at                  jhansi as legendary memory  of an Indian chand. 

        In my view he should be given BHARATHA RATNA for his hard work for hockey tough he is          no more here.

STATUE AT JHANSI

Wheels within wheels- INDIA TODAY

INDIA'S infant scooter industry is pitched against the big league giants in the world market. It is up against companies like Honda of Japan , which makes some of the world's best motorcycles, and Piaggio of Italy which makes the famous vespa scooter.

V98- VESPA FIRST MODEL 1946-48

                                                                        Bajaj, the largest manufacturers of scooters in the country, which has sold most of its two-wheel scooters abroad, is now collaborating with firms in Indonesia and Taiwan for making scooters. Bajaj went into the scooter business 16 years ago, establishing a factory near Pune with Piaggio's help. Now, Bajaj and Piaggio are fighting for share of the world demand for two-wheelers.

                                                                         Even scooters india ltd, a public sector company which bought the Italian company Innocenti's used plant and machinery and set up a factory near lucknow's Amausi airport, has begun exporting with in two years of making the first scooter.

                                                                          Scooter India's exports are the modest. It sold 50 scooters at 400 dollars apiece to the UK last year and has received a repeat order. A few scooters have been sold in Singapore and Colombia in South America.
                                                   

5th MODE OF TRANSPORT -PRINCIPLE OF HYPERLOOP

we know basically 4 modes of transportation viz.. road , rail , waterways and air....but here is some astonishing thing that pierced the brain of Sir Elon Musk that why should we have 5th and the fastest mode of transportation? this rouse the idea of HYPERLOOP . Here is that intresting excerpt ........

Sir Elon Musk

“CONCEPT OF HYPERLOOP”

A Hyperloop is a theatrical mode of transportation designed by Sir Elon Musk .His basic idea was to create a fifth mode of transportation (airways, boats, trains, automobiles are the four modes).This idea could bring a revolution in the field of transportation .But of course implementing this idea

would cost about 6 billion US$   The main theme of this concept is provide super-fast and super-efficient transportation in efficient time between two stations.

Let us see the understand the principle behind this concept.

Actually this Hyperloop is said as the extension of Vactrain concept. The main base idea for implementing this concept is to control the air resistance and friction. Actually air resistance and friction are the two major components for a transport to succeed.

So to gain control over these Vactrain concept has been introduced.But implementing this concept in real world is impossible. So a new theory based upon the Vactrain concept has been introduced by Sir Elon Musk. He made changes to apply this concept in the real world applications.

So he kept this concept as an OPEN SOURCE PROJECT. This project is the first open source project in the field of transportation.

If this Hyperloop concept has been implemented into practice it would bring a whole new revolution in the field of transport. so this is the ideology has been open sourced.
