Quenching the Thirst for Knowledge

Explanation:
Communication satellites,
weather satellites and remote
sensing satellites are satellites that
make our life easy, interesting
and safe. In addition to this, ISRO
scientists have built scientific
satellites that quench the human
thirst for knowledge, especially to
understand our universe.
But the satellite or to be
more precise the spacecraft which
revealed the prowess of Indian
scientists to efficiently explore
space was Chandrayaan-1. Since Chandrayaan-1 went towards some other heavenly body instead
of permanently circling the Earth, it is appropriate to call it a
spacecraft rather than a satellite.
Chandrayaan-1 demonstrated many things including
India’s ability to do meaningful science at low cost, its ability to
assume leadership in a cooperative space venture and develop
the essential technology within stipulated time. Chandrayaan-1
made the outside world to look at India with enhanced respect
and galvanized student community within India. It became a
prominent milestone not only in the history of Indian space
programme, but in the history of India itself.
One of the main objectives of Chandrayaan-1 was to further
expand the knowledge about the moon, make more progress in
space technologies, especially by decreasing the various internal
‘organs’ of a satellite or a spacecraft and provide challenging
opportunities to India’s large younger generation of scientists
to conduct research about the moon.
Having proved India’s ability to successfully explore
another heavenly body, Chandrayaan-1 collected massive amount of scientific data (information), including pictures.
Chandryaan-1 had detected water molecules on the moon. This
was a path-breaking discovery indeed!
Before Chandryaan-1 went to moon, scientists were not
certain about the presence of water on the moon. Thus, it was
India’s Chandrayaan-1 which made a major discovery about
the moon. Along with this, scientists were able to sense the
height and depth of various features on the lunar surface.
Chandrayaan-1 thus became a symbol of India’s success in
space.

The Pint of Science Festival takes place in nine countries and 50 cities across the same three nights, and on the second evening the audience heard two talks on animals and children.
group of science lectures held in pubs across UK cities included three nights of psychology and neurobiology talks in Birmingham. The Pint of Science Festival takes place in nine countries and 50 cities across the same three nights, and on the second evening the audience heard two talks on animals and children.Jackie Chappell, from the School of Biosciences at the University of Birmingham, began by outlining what creativity means from an animal research perspective, saying it involves looking into how animals use their brains to adapt to their environment. Chappell went on to say that testing animal creativity can be problematic: the usual approach is to give an animal a problem to solve that they have not encountered before and that will test their creativity rather than simply showing that an animal can learn with enough training and exposure.
