ISRO: Aditya L1 Satellite trespasses into its Final Orbit.

written by theparliamentnews.com

Recently, the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) confirmed the successful placement of the Aditya L1 satellite into its final orbit on January 6, 2024. The space agency shared the milestone through a social media post, revealing that Aditya L1 has effectively entered the Halo orbit around the L1 point.

Regarded as a highly challenging task, the precision placement of the satellite in the Halo orbit at the Lagrangian point was meticulously executed by ISRO. The Ground Command Centre, situated approximately 1.5 million km away, played a crucial role as ISRO utilized the motor and thrusters for this intricate maneuver.

The propulsion system of the Aditya L1 spacecraft, comprising a 440 Newton Liquid Apogee Motor, eight 22 Newton thrusters, and four 10 Newton thrusters, was skillfully employed in a series of intermittent firings to guide the spacecraft to the L1 point.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi commended ISRO’s success, expressing confidence in India’s commitment to exploring new frontiers of science. Dr. Jitendra Singh, the Union Minister of State for Science and Technology, hailed the accomplishment as a proud moment for the country under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Aditya L1 marks India’s inaugural solar mission, designed to observe and study the Sun’s Corona, unraveling the mysteries of its extreme heat and its impact on Earth. The Lagrangian Point, or L1, represents the equilibrium point where gravitational forces between the Earth and the Sun allow uninterrupted observation of the Sun without the interference of eclipses.

Following its launch from Sriharikota, Aditya L1 underwent four Earth-bound maneuvers and a Trans Lagrangian Point Insertion maneuver to reach its final orbit. The successful positioning of Aditya L1 in its designated orbit signifies a significant stride in India’s scientific exploration, specifically in understanding the Sun-Earth connection.

written by theparliamentnews.com

India’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is projected to experience a 7.3 percent growth in the fiscal year 2023-24, as per the initial advance estimates of national income released by the National Statistical Office (NSO) on the previous day. The anticipated higher GDP expansion is attributed to increased investment, government expenditure, and improved outputs in key sectors such as mining, manufacturing, construction, and financial services.

In comparison to the 7.2 percent growth in the preceding year, the Indian economy is forecasted to demonstrate accelerated growth in FY24, as indicated by the initial official estimates. The Reserve Bank of India had earlier estimated a growth rate of 7 percent. The government’s assessments suggest a potential 6.9 percent growth in the second half, driven by heightened investment and manufacturing activities.

Japan Earthquake: Toll Climbs to 57 as Rescuers Confront Aftershocks and Inclement Weather

by theparliamentnews.com
written by theparliamentnews.com

The toll from a series of powerful earthquakes in Japan, including a magnitude 7.5 quake, has risen to 57, with most fatalities reported in Wajima and Suzu on the Noto Peninsula in the hard-hit Ishikawa prefecture, according to officials cited by NHK World. Over 20 people are seriously injured, and there are fears that many remain trapped under collapsed buildings.

The earthquakes struck the Noto Peninsula in Ishikawa on Monday, causing building collapses and prompting tsunami warnings reaching as far as eastern Russia. The country’s meteorological office recorded a total of 155 earthquakes that day.

Rescue efforts faced challenges on Tuesday as aftershocks and poor weather hindered operations. The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) issued a warning about heavy rainfall in Noto, cautioning against landslides until Wednesday evening.

A tragic setback occurred when an aircraft carrying emergency supplies caught fire after a runway collision at Haneda airport on Tuesday, resulting in the death of five coastguard crew members.

Prime Minister Fumio Kishida emphasized the urgency of the situation, acknowledging the race against time to rescue those possibly trapped in collapsed structures. The government, led by Kishida, plans to convene an emergency task force meeting on Wednesday morning to address relief and rescue operations.

In Suzu, a coastal city severely affected by the earthquakes, Mayor Masuhiro Izumiya reported widespread devastation, stating that “almost no houses are standing.” Approximately 90% of the town’s houses are either completely or almost entirely destroyed, describing the situation as catastrophic.

Japan, accustomed to frequent earthquakes, faces the aftermath of this recent seismic activity, reminiscent of the devastating 9.0 magnitude quake in 2011, which triggered a tsunami resulting in around 18,500 casualties.”

Assessing Market Prospects for January 2024: Navigating Historical Trends Amidst Current Positive Indicators

by theparliamentnews.com
written by theparliamentnews.com

As we enter 2024, the market has seen a 7% gain in December, an 18% return in the last two months, a 46% return in 2023, and a 57% gain in nine months from the low of March.

Over the last 16 years, the NSE midcap index and the 100 stock index, reflecting midcap and large-cap segments, have witnessed negative returns in 12 out of 16 Januarys. Averaging a 2.2% negative return, exceptions include positive years like 2012, 2015, 2017, and 2020. Notably, 2012 showcased a double-digit return after a 25% market fall in 2011.

Examining historical data reveals nuanced market behavior. In 2011, a 17% market decline preceded the positive January of 2012. Similarly, despite a robust election outcome in 2014, 2015 saw a market return of less than 15% in the prior five months. The positive January of 2017 followed a 10% demonetization-led sell-off in 2016, and 2020’s positive start was amidst recovering from the NBFC crisis.

As we step into 2024, the market closed December with a 7% gain, showcasing an 18% return in the last two months, a 46% return in 2023, and an impressive 57% gain in nine months from the March low. While these gains hold significance for traders and momentum enthusiasts, long-term investors may view them as short-term fluctuations.

Decent macro-economic fundamentals, an anticipation of lower global interest rates, and reduced election risk post BJP’s strong performance in recent state elections contribute to positive factors. While January historically presents challenges, the current positive indicators suggest the market may defy seasonal trends.

The key lies in balancing short-term considerations with a long-term perspective as we embark on the new year.
