I was looking at Hubble's deep field picture of the universe. Basically they took what looked like an empty part of the sky and pointed the hubble in that direction for 30 days of image exposure. The picture that emerged was amazing. In that empty piece of the sky, there were thousands and thousand...

The below link is of a video made to support the launching of Ra'ad. It shows a mirage taking off with something under the fuselage. Video resolution is not that clear.

Boeings tests solid state laser achieving power levels of 25KW. This is still short of the megawatt level achieved by chemical laser and employed in the air borne laser using B747 against tactical missiles. Being solid state it would be less maintainence intensive than a chemical laser. A step close...

IN will post a SAG and SSK patrol outside Karachi and a cleartext message to pakis that they can kiss all their industrial infra goodbye if any hostile moves are detected.

dangladesh needs this more than pureland.

The mars express mission is a good role model wherein a lander
(beagle-2) and a satellite was launched simultaneously. I think the chandrayaan-2 mission is also proceeding along the same lines.

Dont the microcontrollers usually operate at 130 nm upwards since they are more focussed on rugged field operations....? For space applications, im guessing that 45,90 nm are worthless as they wil be too weak structurally... Sum-ji, Basically the No 1 requirement for space (for avionics as well) is...

There is a place called "Chutia Gaon" in Assam also. This actually caused us much merriment when we were kids growing up outside Assam. However, "Chutiya" is neither an Assamese spelling or pronounciation, there being no "ch" sound in Assamese. The correct form is &quo...

Raad is not fast enough to be a ASM. those fixed tailfins dont look like any ASM to me. it looks like air intake is fixed and so are the wings so a MirageIII can carry one under the centerline. in short, its not a replacement for harpoon. it will fly low and slow compared to harpoon, using ground c...

There is only one 'guy' in the picture (unless you're ~ 50 yrs old). So the Amitabh Bachchan in the photoo was your school mate?

Ok.

Since this also happens to be Agnee-path , he can be refered to as Vijay Dinanath Chavan.

Either way, there is a need for the Air-force to have an exclusive launcher for mil satellites in the future. Also there is a need to keep a certain number of small "Disposable" satellites with imaging, SAR and mil communications, to be kept on stand-by on the ground, a cluster of which c...
