Just posting some interesting snippets. During the Trump swearing-in ceremony, some lady prompted by a guy touched the shoulder of Minister Jaishankar and motioned to him to move or convey that somebody was asking for him. But Jaishankar didn't move and the lady returned. Any idea what it was? High...

I seriously do not understand people bragging about getting 100 citations on a paper (and that too after 35 years). Some of my co-authors have papers (unfortunately I'm not an author on those particular papers) which gain 300 to 400 citations EVERY YEAR.

But to each their own, I guess.

This equation would be true for any year N for any angle theta : (cos( theta ) + i * sin( theta ))^ N = cos( N * theta ) + i * sin( N * theta ) However, this equation would only be true once every four years, and the year 2025 is one of them: (sin( theta ) + i * cos( theta ))^ N = sin( N * theta ) +...

Abstract The planetary and lunar ephemerides called DE440 and DE441 have been generated by fitting numerically integrated orbits to ground-based and space-based observations.

Swami Vivekananda, on several occasions, demonstrated the ability to read books page by page. What I mean is - a child reads letter by letter, while a grown adult (fully literate) reads word by word. So while a child may read a letter per second, an adult would read like a word per second. Adults wi...

@sudarshan gaaru, thanks for this post summarizing his method. Going by his posts in BRF, he is very mindful of falsifiability. Sure. The entity known as veda vyasa (there are doubts as to whether it is one single person or a group of people belonging to a "guild" or a group like Bourbaki...

See, the word "prove" is totally the wrong word to use in this context. Astronomy was used to "estimate" the time of the MB war, I don't believe we'll ever be able to "prove" that a particular time was THE time when it happened. Now, a few points on the above. * Shri P....

Just for fun..here is one easy one.. .... The answer has got to be 2.4. Here's the reasoning: Let the numbers be a, b, c, d.

FWIW - One of my professor's famous remarks was, 'Sure, they laughed at Galileo, but they also (much more commonly) laughed at Bozo the Clown.'

@Sudarshan gaaru As for the star field not changing much in 3K years or 12K years, one objection I have is that it is quite possible if there is a massive balckhole or there are other stars nearby those prominent stars but are of far lower magnitude. They can perturb the star field (looking from pl...

By all means if there is a reasonable scientific explanation for a belief we can investigate and present it.

sudarshan ji, I posit that Archaeoastronomy is a pseudoscience. It is a fool's errand to prove anything going back to thousands of years, leave alone tens of thousands of years.

I am sorry to butt in like this but it is a personal bugbear of mine when people try to provide scientific explanations for our Hindu beliefs. This is not necessary at all...

In Vedic astrology we leave out Uranus (Shweta), Neptune (Shyama) and Plutu (Teevra) as they are too far away to exert any major influence on humans and are also in one single rashi for too long.
