NCERT’s Educational Influence Grows with Deemed University Status.

by theparliamentnews.com 2 September 2023

written by theparliamentnews.com

New Delhi: In a significant development, the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) has achieved deemed university status, as announced by Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan on the occasion of the Council’s 63rd foundation day. This recognition grants NCERT the authority to confer its own graduate, postgraduate, and doctoral degrees, marking a substantial expansion of its influence in India’s educational sphere.

“NCERT has been designated as a deemed-to-be-university. It has made a substantial impact on research, actively influencing school education, teacher training, and adult literacy. With NCERT’s transition into a research university, it will open doors for global collaborations,” stated Pradhan.

As the leading organization for school education in India, NCERT is engaged in various activities and programs, including educational research, curriculum development, and the creation of educational materials.

Pradhan also proposed the integration of Bal Bhavans and Bal Vatikas (child-centric learning centers) into NCERT, envisioning a comprehensive educational approach designed to provide holistic education to children.

The deemed-to-be-university status awarded to NCERT falls under the ‘de novo’ category. This designation allows NCERT to apply to the University Grants Commission (UGC) for the establishment of a new institution as a deemed university, specializing in the study and research of emerging areas of knowledge not currently offered by existing institutions. In addition to granting degrees to teachers, NCERT will have the autonomy to determine the courses it wishes to offer.

Furthermore, Pradhan proposed the establishment of augmented reality, virtual reality, and artificial intelligence labs at NCERT’s regional centers.

This development is poised to further elevate NCERT’s role in shaping India’s educational landscape by strengthening its research capabilities and expanding its academic offerings.

Glorious India’s Chandrayaan-3: An Epic Lunar Journey marks a Historic Touchdown on Moon’s Surface.

by theparliamentnews.com 23 August 2023

written by theparliamentnews.com

Chandrayaan-3: A Remarkable Lunar Odyssey Nearing its Historic Touchdown.
In an impressive showcase of scientific prowess and unyielding determination, India’s ambitious Chandrayaan-3 mission has embarked on an unwavering odyssey to the Moon since its triumphant lift-off on July 14. This significant venture, steered by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), carries the promise of expanding the frontiers of lunar exploration. The mission’s unwavering objective is to realize a successful gentle landing on the Moon’s surface, an achievement projected to materialize around 6:04 pm on August 23.

The voyage of Chandrayaan-3 initiated with its ascent atop the LVM3 M4 vehicle on July 14. Following this awe-inspiring departure, a series of exacting orbital maneuvers have been meticulously orchestrated, each progressively propelling the spacecraft towards its lunar target. The inaugural maneuver, executed on July 15, propelled Chandrayaan-3 into an orbit measuring 41,762 km x 173 km. Subsequent refinements took place on July 17 (41,603 km x 226 km), July 22 (71,351 km x 233 km), and July 25.

A significant milestone was achieved on August 1 when Chandrayaan-3 elegantly assumed a Trans lunar orbit encompassing 288 km x 369,328 km. This intricate celestial choreography continued as the spacecraft triumphantly attained lunar orbit insertion on August 5, establishing parameters at 164 km x 18,074 km.

The precision of the ISRO team further manifested as Chandrayaan-3’s lunar orbit underwent calibrated enhancement. By August 6, the orbit was meticulously refined to 170 km x 4,313 km. A pivotal course correction on August 9 ensured the sustenance of a lunar orbit measuring 174 km x 1,437 km.

Advancing through its journey, Chandrayaan-3 demonstrated a remarkable convergence towards the Moon’s surface. By August 14, the spacecraft’s orbit harmoniously aligned at an elevation of 150 km x 177 km, accentuating the imminent proximity of this remarkable lunar quest.

A series of calculated maneuvers unfolded, guiding Chandrayaan-3 to a crucial juncture. The culmination arrived as the mission flawlessly achieved a circular lunar orbit measuring 163 km x 153 km.

With excitement intensifying, the culmination of intricate planning and innovative ingenuity became increasingly apparent. On August 17, a significant detachment occurred, as the landing module housing the Vikram lander and Pragyan rover elegantly separated from its propulsion unit. This marked a pivotal stride towards the highly anticipated gentle landing.

As the mission approached its zenith, Chandrayaan-3 adeptly executed strategic deboosting operations, progressively shrinking its orbital scope. By August 20, the spacecraft’s orbit encompassed both zenith and nadir points, measuring 134 km x 25 km respectively.

In an eagerly awaited crescendo set to captivate global attention, Chandrayaan-3’s lunar touchdown is poised to initiate on August 23 at 5:47 pm IST. The culmination of meticulous planning and technological virtuosity will culminate with the highly anticipated soft landing at 6:04 PM IST. This monumental accomplishment, a testament to India’s unswerving commitment to space exploration, stands as a stepping stone to new revelations and advances humanity’s pursuit of celestial enlightenment.

written by theparliamentnews.com

As the sun rises on August 19th, 2023, we embark on a journey to celebrate an art form that has revolutionized the way we perceive the world photography. This day, known as World Photography Day, holds special significance as we reflect on the profound impact that photography has had on our lives, our cultures, and our memories.

It was on this very day, August 19th, in 1839, that the French government officially introduced the daguerreotype to the world a momentous invention that marked the beginning of a visual revolution. Fast forward to 2023, and photography has evolved into an art form, a science, a means of communication, and a window into the past, present, and future.

Photography is more than just capturing a scene; it is the language of emotions frozen in time. It is through the lens that we immortalize laughter, tears, and every fleeting expression that crosses our faces. With a single click, a photographer can weave a story that resonates across borders, cultures, and generations.

In a world inundated with words, it’s often an image that truly speaks volumes. The iconic “Earthrise” photograph taken during the Apollo 8 mission, showing our planet rising above the lunar surface, instantly conveyed the fragility and beauty of our home in a way that words couldn’t. Similarly, the haunting image of a young Syrian boy, Alan Kurdi, washed ashore, brought the refugee crisis into sharp focus, igniting a collective call for empathy and action.

As we celebrate World Photography Day in 2023, let us take a moment to recognize the power of the lens to evoke emotions, provoke thought, and drive change. This year’s theme, “Capturing Eternity,” encourages us to explore the timeless essence of photography.

In an era of instant gratification, photography reminds us to pause and appreciate the intricacies of the world around us. It teaches us to see beyond the obvious, to seek beauty in the mundane, and to find significance in every fleeting moment. Photography, in its very essence, captures eternity an eternal moment that speaks to the heart of humanity, transcending the boundaries of time.

As you celebrate this World Photography Day, consider the profound impact that photography has had on your life. Recall the photographs that made you smile, moved you to tears, or inspired you to take action. Whether you’re a professional photographer or an amateur enthusiast armed with a smartphone, remember that every photograph you take has the potential to change the world.

So, on August 19th, 2023, let’s embrace the spirit of World Photography Day by capturing the beauty, the stories, and the emotions that surround us. Let’s celebrate the remarkable journey of photography from the early days of the daguerreotype to the digital age while looking forward to the innovations that lie ahead.

Chandrayaan- 3 Updates: Moon is now less than 1,500 km away, ISRO performs 3rd lunar-bound manoeuvre

by theparliamentnews.com 10 August 2023

written by theparliamentnews.com

Chandrayaan- 3 Mission highlights The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) pulled off the coming Lunar bound orbit manoeuvre today, laying the spacecraft in 174 km x 1437 km orbit.

The previous orbit reduction move for Chandrayaan 3 spacecraft was carried out successfully on Sunday as planned, using the onboard propulsion system. The orbit achieved is 170 km x 4,313 km.

Before it lands on the moon, Chandrayaan- 3 will perform multiplede-orbiting manoeuvres to bring it closer to the lunar surface so that lander Vikram can land there.

According to Isro chief S Somanath, a lander propulsion module separation exercise will be taken up after that, soon after lander” deboost”, a process that slows down the craft. It’ll be followed by landing on lunar surface on August 23, he explained.

Listen to the

However, if all the detectors fail, nothing works,” If everything fails. That is how it has been designed- provided that the propulsion system works well,” Mr Somanath told news agency PTI.

Chandrayaan- 3 will make India the fourth country after the US, China, and Russia to land its spacecraft on the surface of the moon, showing the country’s capability for a safe and soft landing on the lunar surface.

Chandrayaan- 3 mission updates what’s next?

According to ISRO, there will be two additional orbit reduction manoeuvres to bring the spacecraft closer to the Moon.

These maneuvers will be performed on August 14 and 16 to reach 100 km orbit, following which the landing module, comprising the lander and rover will break away from the propulsion module. After this, the lander is expected to undergo a” deboost”(the process of slowing down) and make a soft landing on the south polar region of the Moon on August
