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).

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.

KATHAKALI in VARKALA

Hugely entertaining, and very intense. There were only 5 of us in the audience, but these performers and the muscicians gave it their all.
If you are ever in Varkala (State of Kerala, South India) go and support them and have an unforgettable time.

Thank you Abhinav

It seems that the only medal India, will have in Olympics is the gold medal by Abhinav Bhindra. Atleast we can think that finally after long wait India got a gold medal apart from Hockey, by contrast when India didn't qualify for hockey in Olympics.

Abhinav Bindra

Here is an interview by Abhinav Bindra


ABHINAV BINDRA - GOLD WINNING SHOT AWESOME!

ABHINAV BINDRA - SHOWCASES HIS TALLENT BEFORE OLYMPICS.


I gave him all the facilities: Abhinav's father

While Indian shooter Abhinav Bindra is already the toast of the nation, his parents are still coming to terms with the idea of having an Olympic gold medal winner in the family."It's the happiest moment of my life. It's the culmination of my family's devotion and sacrifice over the years. I have done everything I can for his shooting. I spent all my money to help Abhinav prepare. But I think the real victory belongs to no one but Abhinav. He deserves all the praise, accolades and applause that is coming his way from his family, friends and countrymen," says an ecstatic A S Bindra, Abhinav's father.

Google Earth images started to get on browsers

Google Earth images are now available in browsers. For which a browser plug in has to be installed in browser. I installed the plugin and several times tried to load some sample pages. But page failed to load showing some error, may be some bug in the plugin software which has some incompatibility with my browser configuration I think. Anyway it is a great development, from 2D satellite maps to 3D aerial maps. Already the Google street view (which shows 360 degree perspective of streets) is available in many US cities and you can see many of them including street view of place where world trade center situated, in this blog. Technology is doing wonders.
