ISRO Bhuvan, India's own 3D Satellite map Service : Vidoes

Peoples in Kerala are familiar with Google earth, wikimapia.org. Almost every home in Kerala, place marks are marked in wikipedia.org. Now the satellite map lovers can enjoy Desi Satellite maps that too in 3D. Bhuvan, Google earth like service launched by ISRO (Indian satellite research organisation) has gone live. Even though Bhuvan is capable of giving better resolution than Wikimapia.org and Google earth,(up to 10 meters zoom capability, compared to google earth's 200 meter capability) presently Bhuvan is not clear at high zoom levels. Probably due to security reasons, ISRO have not presently enabled higher zoom levels. But even though certain limitations like running only in internet explorer currently ( it is not digestible to me like die hard firefox fans, ISRO should have considered firefox as the first choice,may be bhuvan plugin developed is an activex and won't run in firefox. )

But precisely saying, even though higher zoom levels were not currently available, Bhuvan is impressive in giving administrative details (like state, district, panchayath, population info), resource datas like water reservoir, roads, rivers etc.) and other statistical datas like soil erosion, weather data etc.

Bhuvan is now limited to registered users. Registering is possible at here

To view Bhuvan a plugin is required which can be downloaded from following locations.

Chandrayan1 India's pride: ചന്ദ്രന് ഇന്ത്യയുടെ ചന്ദനക്കുറി

ചന്ദ്രയാന്‍1: ചന്ദ്രന് ഇന്ത്യയുടെ ചന്ദനക്കുറി
zoom-kerala.blogspot.com salutes proudly India's pride.

Chandrayaan-1(sanskrit word meaning vehicle to moon ) is India's first mission to the moon conducted by national space agency called Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). The mission is unmanned and intends lunar exploration mission with a lunar orbiter and an impactor. The satellite is launched by a modified version of the PSLV XL. Launched on 22 October 2008 from Satish Dhawan Space Centre, Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh at 06:23 IST (00:52 UTC). The vehicle was successfully inserted into lunar orbit on 8th November 2008 by ISRO creating joyful moments for Indians.
India already has very nice remote sensing satellites and this mission involves a remote sensing satellite weighing 1,380 kilograms (3,042 lb) at launch and 675 kilograms (1,488 lb) at lunar orbit. The satellite carries high resolution visible, near infrared, soft and hard X-ray frequency remote sensing cameras and equipments. Over a two-year expected life span, Chandrayan has to survey the lunar surface and produce a complete map of its chemical characteristics and 3-dimensional topography. The mission gives special interest to polar regions as they might contain ice. Also included in the mission, are the five ISRO payloads and six payloads from other international space agencies including NASA, ESA, and the Bulgarian Aerospace Agency, which are being carried free of cost.
The estimated cost for the project is Rs. 3.86 billion (US$ 80 million).

Indias first unmanned flight to the moon blasted off from Sriharikota, off the Andhra Pradesh coast, early morning on Wednesday.

Chandrayaan will orbit the moon for two years. A principal objective of Chandrayaan is to look for Helium 3, an isotope which is very rare on earth but is sought to power nuclear fusion and could be a valuable source of energy in the future, some scientists believe.

Videos of Kathakali, a famous art of Kerala ,കഥകളിയുടെ വീഡിയോ

കഥകളിയുടെ വീഡിയോ
Kathakali (Malayalam: ????? , pronounced [kat???ka?i]) is a form of highly stylised classical Indian dance-drama that is noted for its attractive make-up of characters, their elaborate costumes, detailed hand gestures and well-defined body movements presented in tune with the anchor playback music and complementary percussion. It originated in the country's southern state of Kerala during the 16th century AD, approximately between 1555 and 1605, and has been updated over the years with improved looks, refined gestures and added themes besides more ornate singing and precise drumming.

Kathakali is considered to be a combination of five elements of fine art:

* Expressions (Natyam, the component with emphasis on facial expressions)
* Dance (Nritham, the component of dance with emphasis on rhythm and movement of hands, legs and body)
* Enactment (Nrithyam, the element of drama with emphasis on "mudras", which are hand gestures)
* Song/vocal accompaniment (Geetha)
* Instrument accompaniment (Vadyam)

Even though the lyrics/literature would qualify as another independent element called Sahithyam, it is considered as a component of Geetha or music, as it plays only a supplementary role to Nritham, Nrithyam and Natyam.

Performance

Traditionally, a Kathakali performance is usually conducted at night and ends in early morning. Nowadays it isn't difficult to see performances as short as three hours or even lesser. Kathakali is usually performed in front of the huge Kalivilakku (kali meaning dance; vilakku meaning lamp) with its thick wick sunk till the neck in coconut oil. Traditionally, this lamp used to provide sole light when the plays used to be performed inside temples, palaces or abodes houses of nobles and aristocrats. Enactment of a play by actors takes place to the accompaniment of music (geetha) and instruments (vadya). The percussion instruments used are chenda, maddalam and, at times, edakka. In addition, the singers (the lead singer is called “ponnani” and his follower is called “singidi”) use "chengila" (gong made of bell metal, which can be struck with a wooden stick) and "ilathaalam" (a pair of cymbals). The lead singer in some sense uses the Chengala to conduct the Vadyam and Geetha components, just as a conductor uses his wand in western classical music. A distinguishing characteristic of this art form is that the actors never speak but use hand gestures, expressions and rhythmic dancing instead of dialogue (but for a couple of rare characters).

Kathakali Styles

Known as Sampradäya?(Malayalam:??????????); these are leading Kathakali styles that differ from each other in subtleties like choreographic profile, position of hand gestures and stress on dance than drama and vice versa. Some of the major original styles included:

1. Vettathu Sampradayam
2. Kalladikkodan Sampradyam
3. Kaplingadu Sampradayam

Of late, these have narrowed down to the northern (Kalluvazhi) and southern (Thekkan) styles. It is the highly stylised Kalluvazhi tradition (largely developed by the legendary Pattikkamthodi Ravunni Menon - 1881-1949) that is implemented in Kerala Kalamandalam (though it has also a department that teaches the southern style), Sadanam, RLV and Kottakkal. Margi has its training largely based on the Thekkan style, known for its stress on drama and part-realistic techniques. Kalanilayam, effectively, churns out students with a mix of both styles.
