  • TIFR Mourns the Passing of Its Second Founder
    TIFR mourns the passing of its second founder When Mambillikalathil Govind Kumar Menon breathed his last on November 22, 2016, at the age of 88, the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, was bereaved for the second time after the untimely death of its iconic founder, Homi J. Bhabha, in 1966. For, if Bhabha had founded TIFR as a unique centre with the ambience to foster cutting-edge science of the highest quality, it was Menon who completed his unfinished work and created the TIFR which is now taken for granted as India’s premier research institute. Born at Mangalore, in 1928, to a district judge and his wife, Menon was one of eleven children. He was educated at Chennai, Jodhpur and the Royal Institute of Science, Mumbai, before going to the University of Bristol, where he got his Ph.D. in 1953 under the guidance of Nobel Laureate Cecil F. Powell. ‘Goku’ Menon, as he was widely known, made some fundamental observations on the decays of K-mesons, and had several job offers in Europe and America, but was persuaded by Bhabha to return to India and join TIFR in 1955. Once in India, Menon worked hard alongside other pioneers such as Bernard Peters, Devendra Lal, Yash Pal and B.V. Sreekantan to build a world-class cosmic ray research group at TIFR. Perhaps his best claim to scientific fame is the setting up of the Kolar gold field experiment, where atmospheric neutrinos were detected for the first time (1965). Gradually, Menon became Bhabha’s right hand man in the running of TIFR, at a time when the latter was busy setting up India’s atomic energy programme.

This is an Open Access article, distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution licence (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), which permits unrestricted re-use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. doi:10.1017/bjt.2016.4 First published online 22 March 2016 Another global history of science: making space for India and China ASIF SIDDIQI* Abstract. Drawing from recent theoretical insights on the circulation of knowledge, this article, grounded in real-world examples, illustrates the importance of ‘the site’ as an analytical heur- istic for revealing processes, movements and connections illegible within either nation-centred histories or comparative national studies. By investigating place instead of project, the study reframes the birth of modern rocket developments in both China and India as fundamentally intertwined within common global networks of science. I investigate four seemingly discon- nected sites in the US, India, China and Ukraine, each separated by politics but connected and embedded in conduits that enabled the flow of expertise during (and in some cases despite) the Cold War. By doing so, it is possible to reconstruct an exemplar of a kind of global history of science, some of which takes place in China, some in India, and some else- where, but all of it connected. There are no discrete beginnings or endings here, merely points of intervention to take stock of processes in action. Each site produces objects and knowledge that contribute to our understanding of the other sites, furthering the overall narra- tive on Chinese and Indian efforts to formalize a ‘national’ space programme.
