Subho Guru Purnima Baba & Maa 🖤 I can't exactly explain in words whatever I have witnessed, questioned, got answers, nimityas...The constant questioning of everything that challenged the very sense of advait. Questioning the basic statvik padhatis, niyam, achar, vichar, shastras

satellite based ballastic missile tracking system 1. At Geosynchronous Earth Orbit (GEO) Operating at the speed of the Earth's rotation, these satellites stay fixed over specific regions to provide continuous observation of potential launch areas ,

I was watching the ISRO chairman's post-launch speech. The way he started it, boasting that they've completed the base layer of the satellite constellation again, whose first satellite was launched back in 2013, really pissed me off, so I just went to sleep. Congratulations ISRO on launching NVS-03 but boasting about completing the base layer is just pathetic. You stayed silent for years while satellites failed one by one and now you're boasting that you've completed the four-satellite base layer again. #ISRO #GSLVF18 #NVS03

Absolutely shitfuckery AI @MythbusterXX wakey wakey 😁
“Some Army personnel are exaggerating India-China border tensions to undermine the BJP government. The Army receives full government support and increased funding. If there are genuine concerns, why has only the Army raised them, while the Air Force and Navy have remained silent?” — Rajnath Singh, Defence Minister

Chief of the Air Staff (CAS) Air Chief Marshal AP Singh was given a befitting farewell by Raksha Mantri Shri @rajnathsingh October 26, 2026, ahead of the CAS’ superannuation, following his 42 years of glorious service to the nation. Raksha Mantri commended the CAS for his distinguished service, exemplary leadership and invaluable contributions to the Indian Air Force and the nation. Shri Rajnath Singh acknowledged the key role played by the outgoing CAS in the successful execution of Operation Sindoor and in strengthening the capabilities of the Indian Air Force. He extended his best wishes to Air Chief Marshal AP Singh for his future endeavours. On October 31, 2026, the CAS will lay a wreath at the National War Memorial to honour the bravehearts and inspect a ceremonial Guard of Honour at Air Force Station, New Delhi before superannuating from service.

We questioned what was actually aboard EOS-05. Then we took those questions to ISRO through RTI. Our original article flagged that the widely repeated instrument specifications belonged to the lost EOS-03 / GISAT-1. Had the payload changed? We explicitly raised added thermal capability as one possibility. ISRO’s reply now confirms: EOS-05 carries a six-band long-wave infrared imager that EOS-03 did not have with 1,180 m resolution and a 378 km swath. This establishes an important difference between the two spacecraft: EOS-05 has thermal imaging capability that extends observation beyond daylight. It also corrects our earlier article’s statement that EOS-05 had no thermal band. Beyond that confirmation, our RTI obtained detailed payload specifications, swath widths, propellant mass, design life and power figures. Some questions remain unanswered. From the uncertainties we flagged to the answers ISRO provided read our full breakdown and the RTI reply: indianspaceflight.in/latest/… #ISRO #EOS05 #GISAT #GSLVF17 #EOS03

If they didn't get any support when starting off, why is there any expectation that they'll look to prioritise you after they do the hard yards and become capable?

ISRO's GSLV-F19/NVS-03 launch tonight is absolutely critical! As of now, only NVS-01 is truly operational + has 10yrs of life ahead.. The 2 old IRNSS satellites are at end-of-life... For NaVIC to come alive, we need NVS-04, 05, 06 also in orbit! + backup satellites
In mid-2025, I wrote in detail about 🇮🇳 Regional Navigational Satellite system (NAVIC), a strategic capability, being near-defunct. Later, Govt admitted in Parliament that NAVIC is not operational Given NVS-02 failure, tonight's ISRO launch is crucial wionews.com/science/isro-s-g…

INS Vikrant was spotted with a minor change.There are two perpendicular triangular deck markings on the flight deck,potentially associated with the carrier's landing guidance system.
