 ๐Ÿ”† Sampurnanand Telescope (ST) ✅ The Governor of Uttarakhand  recently highlighted the need for discussing future possibilities of the 104 cm Sampurnanand Telescope (ST) , at a workshop organised to commemorate the completion of 50 years of successful operations of the telescope. ✅It is a world-class telescope located near Nainital. The telescope at Manora Peak was established in 1972 when ARIES was known as the UP State Observatory (UPSO). ✅It has been extensively used for optical observations of comets, occultation by planets and asteroids, star-forming regions and star clusters, variable stars, transients, active galactic nuclei, etc. ✅Some of the breakthrough science results contributed by the telescope include the discovery of new rings around Saturn and the rings of Uranus. ✅The instrumentation and science capabilities of ST have paved the way for setting up National and International facilities by ARIES, such as the 3.6m DOT and the 4 meter International Liquid Mirror Telescope

What is the Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS-NavIC)?

Image
  ✅ Why in News :  Usage of Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System(NavIC system) has increased in sectors like transportation and personal mobility. ๐Ÿ”ธThere is also an increase in the number of NavIC enabled smart mobile phone models in the Indian market. ▪️About Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System ( IRNSS )  ✅IRNSS is an independent regional navigation satellite system developed by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO). ✅The main objective is to provide reliable position, navigation and timing services over India and its neighbourhood. ✅IRNSS is a regional and not a global navigation system. ✅Unlike the widely used GPS which includes 24 satellites, NavIC has 8 satellites and their range is within India and its adjoining regions extending up to 1,500 km from the country’s border. ✅Technically satellite systems with more satellites provide more accurate positioning information. However, compared to GPS which has a position accuracy of 20-30 metres, the NavIC is able

COFFEE-RING EFFECT

 COFFEE-RING EFFECT Researchers have given new insights on the ‘coffee-ring effect’. ✅For about two decades now, the ‘coffee ring effect’ has been known as when a drop of spilt coffee dries up, the outermost edge of the dried drop is a little darker than the centre, forming a darker ‘ring’. ✅This is caused by the outward drift of suspended coffee particles from the centre, causing a denser, darkened rim. ✅Now, researchers from Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, have shown that after reaching the rim, as the drop dries, some of the particles undergo an inward drift too. ✅This research has applications in agriculture, forensic science and even disease diagnosis. The present work has been published in the journal, Soft Matter.

Carbon Dating Method

  ๐Ÿ”†Carbon Dating Method ✅ The District Court in Varanasi allowed a petition seeking Carbon Dating of the structure inside the Gyanvapi mosque that the Hindu side has claimed is a ‘ Shivling ’. ▪️What is Carbon dating? ✅It is a widely-used method applied to establish the age of organic material, things that were once living.  ✅Living things have carbon in them in various forms.  ✅The dating method makes use of the fact that a particular isotope of carbon called C-14, with an atomic mass of 14, is radioactive, and decays at a rate that is well known. ✅The most abundant isotope of carbon in the atmosphere is carbon-12 or a carbon atom whose atomic mass is 12.  ✅A very small amount of carbon-14 is also present. ✅Process : Plants get their carbon through the process of photosynthesis, while animals get it mainly through food. Because plants and animals get their carbon from the atmosphere, they too acquire carbon-12 and carbon-14 isotopes in roughly the same proportion as is available in t
