SPACE PROGRAMME The Indian Space Programme, since its inception, has been guided by a Vision, which laid emphasis on the application of space technology for finding solutions to the problems of man and society. Self-reliance in space technology has been an important target of the programme. Significant achievements have been made in the country in the area of space technology. India was one of the few countries to enter the space club when Aryabhatta the first indigenously built SaPhonelite was put in orbit. The major milestones in space programme are tabulated below: Milestones In Space Programme Indian National Committee for Space Research (INCOSPAR) Formed BY THE Department of Atomic Energy and work on establishing Thumba Equatorial Rocket Launching Station (TERLS) Near Trivandrum began.

Campus Matters Schools Ahead Women Excel ZCA ... Chemistry Hong Kong became a part of China in 1997, and when did Macau join Mainland China? Macau a tiny Portuguese enclave till 1999 is on China’s coast. The first Portuguese ship anchored in Macau in 1513, and by 1553 it had become an official trading post, dominating trade with China and Japan. In 1887, they signed a treaty under which China recognised Portugal’s rule over Macau and its two islands, Coloane and Taipa, and in 1951 they proclaimed Macau on overseas province. As the communists swept to power in 1949, they denounced the treaty signed in 1887 as ‘unequal’. The Leftist revolution in Portugal in1974 that overthrew what remained of the Salazar dictatorship paved the way for the decolonisation of Portuguese possessions in Africa and Asia. Lisbon offered to return Macau to Beijing, but China, which was preoccupied with own Cultural Revolution, refused. As per the agreement of 1987, Macau was handed over to China by Portugal on the midnight of December 19/20, 1999. Gambling is still the mainstay of the economy of Macau, which has just a population of 400,000. The nine casinos run by a single licensee, Hong Kong-born Stanley Ho generate half the tax revenue and account for a forth of Macau’s $5.7 billion gross domestic product. Ninety percent of the populations of Macau are Cantonese Chinese who follow Buddhism. However, politics and the civil service are dominated by the Macanese (Portuguese-speaking Eurasians) and Portuguese expatriates.

89. Bhutas : Some Reflections On Modern Scientific Concepts And Traditional Indian T British Raj? Why the astronomical tradition from Aryabhata to BhaskaraII did not continue beyond the twelfth century? For, during http://www.ignca.nic.in/ps_04003.htm

THE NATURE OF MATTER Previous Page Contents of the Book Next Page Bhutas Some Reflections on Modern Scientific Concepts and Traditional Indian Thoughts Jayant V. Narlikar Against the background of some elementary knowledge about the many different streams of ancient thoughts, I have ventured to ask some questions visa-vis scientific ideas of modern times where I do know a little, perhaps just enough to gauge the extent of my ignorance. About our ancient traditions I do not even know the extent of my ignorance! So I had better begin with the modern scientific end. What does science say about the nature of matter on different physical scales? Scales of Structure A few years ago Professor Phillip Morrison had made a beautiful but short film entitled ‘Powers of Ten’. It started with a scene very common in the Western world, that of a couple picnicking in a city park. Then the camera zooms out showing the larger scale of the park, then zooms farther to show the city, then the state and so on. Each scene is followed by another with ten times larger scale. How far does this go on? Taking 1 metre as the scale we measure our local distances in (— the picnicking couple occupied an area of a few square metres), the tenfold increases in length go on till about 1026 metres — that is, about a hundred million million million million metres! A few significant steps enroute to this gigantic scale are given in Table I below.
