In a major boost to India's space and defence sectors, the country’s first Hypervelocity Expansion Tunnel Test Facility was successfully established and tested by the Indian Institute of Technology in Kanpur.
Indian scientists have designed a new image-correction technique capable of getting better images during the study of atoms at absolute zero temperature. The technique can get rid of 50% unwanted interference fringes in the images, which are important for understanding the intriguing quantum mechanics governed properties of atoms at cold temperatures better.
FY25’s interim budget is 6% higher than the previous year
India has successfully tested an environment-friendly propulsion system demonstrating in-orbit functionality on a microsatellite launched by a rocket, aligning space missions with the environment.
Indian scientists have claimed to have found a new technique of synthesizing thin hard surface coatings by high-velocity air fuel spraying. According to them, this has the potential of an environment-friendly and safer alternative to hard chrome plating used in car parts, tools, and kitchen utensils.
A spacecraft of NASA, orbiting the moon, sent laser beams which successfully bounced off a tiny mirror-based instrument on board the lander that is now on the lunar following India’s landmark moon mission last year.
Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) said its maiden X-ray polarimetric mission has captured the energy emanating from the explosion of a star which is called supernova.
A futuristic fuel cell-based power system was successfully tested by India's national space agency. As per ISRO (Indian Space Research Organisation), this new power system could help build a proposed space station while holding prospects of wider human applications.

Bangladeshi director Tasmia Afrin Mou’s mid-length Bengali documentary film, “Amar Nanur Bari” (Where My Grandma Lives), is about the destruction of water bodies in the name of development. It is amongst the ten works chosen for the much-awaited list of Film Bazaar of the 54th edition of the International Film Festival of India (IFFI) to be held in Goa from November 20.
It raises minimum export price of onion by four times to $800 a tonne
