030: Satellites and Space – Part 1

Hi Again! I’ve had the pleasure of picking Dr Guruprasad’s brains again. This time, for my questions on Satellites. He did not disappoint me at all…. This episode is packed with so much to help you understand why we have so many satellites are in space and still don’t really collide… what space debris is and how lots of satellites fall back to earth after their job is done. Its interesting how India has its own version of GPS called Navik. I was truly fascinated to know how tall the PSLV rocket is! Its truly wonderful how satellites are inseparable from our lives now. It shocked me satellites are even involved in my own podcast while you all are listening from different parts of the world!. I hope you enjoy listening. Thanks,

Hi Again! Second episode within a week’s time rings the bell that its THAT interesting… Mainly because this Brilliant trainer of future scientists, Assistant Director of the Nehru Planetarium shares such astounding facts about our Universe and the Black holes… I mean, who would have ever guessed that the colours we see in various pictures might not really be visible to us if we went into space right now and looked at the same! How peacefully we live on our earth while such massive black holes continuously gobble up even light that gets near it….

Independence Day Special 2020

Patriotism in the air today… I’m loving the feeling. Who could answer my questions better than an army man? I’ve been lucky enough to interview a Kargil War veteran, Brigadier Amardeep Singh on this Independence day. He beautifully explains to us the history before our independence, the meaning of patriotism, and how proud he is for doing his bit for India in winning the Kargil war. My little heart was filled with Pride and greatness to this nation. Bolo Bharat Mata ki… Jai!
