  • ICAO/UNOOSA Aerospace Symposium, 18Th to 20Th March
    Not Beyond Reach – Access an Equity to Aerospace Transportation: India Dr. Sanat Kaul 1 India has seen tremendous growth in space research and activities since 1960. Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) was established in 1969 for development of space programme as a tool for economic and social development. Use of satellite apps as a development tool has made a major dent in the early years. India developed its launch capability and has sent many satellites from its own launch pads and also launched commercially for other countries. It 2008-09, India sent an unmanned mission to Moon called Chandrayan I and in 2014, sent a Mars Orbital Mission (MOM) successfully (on its first attempt). The cost of Mars Orbital Mission was $75 million, which was less than making of the film Gravity ($100 million). Another similar mission to Mars by NASA around the same time cost many times more. 2 In order to leverage the gains made by ISRO, a commercial arm called Antrix Corporation was set up in 1992. Antrix Corporation was able to access ISRO staff of 16000 scientists and engineers. Antrix Corporation has launched through ISRO many successful satellites for other countries and has business agreements with many governments and corporations. 3 India’s commercial space industry is worth just over $1 billion when global space industry is worth $314 billion in 2013. India needs to encourage private sector in space industry. Antrix Corporation has a large vendor base but there is no major independent private sector space industry. 4 India has the technical expertise for developing a Commercial Space Transport Industry.

  • 02, Jun 2016 the Lions Show in Saurashtra IPL Debutant Gujarat
    02, Jun 2016 The Lions show in Saurashtra IPL debutant Gujarat Lions almost scripted a fairy tale, they lost in the virtual semifinal, but they won many hearts not only in Rajkot but everywhere they played, but undoubtedly the foundation was laid at the Saurashtra Cricket Association (SCA) Stadium in Khanderi. A look at all their five matches which they played in one of the most magnificent stadium in the world… Match No 1 Lions off to a great start The home team started their campaign in Rajkot with a crushing seven-wicket win against Rising Pune Supergiants. It was billed as the match between MS Dhoni versus his boys as most of the Gujarat Lions players this year are former Dhoni’s team mates when he was leading the now disbanded Chennai Super Kings team. Batting first Supergiants looked set for a score in excess of 180, but a superb display of defensive bowling towards the end turned the contest in Lions' favour. Aaron Finch and Brendon McCullum then effectively killed the game by pillaging 62 in the Powerplay, during their chase of 164. MS Dhoni had pulled back some momentum for Supergiants by contributing to a 20-run last over in the first innings, but his bowlers threw it all away. Loose deliveries stacked up, and the Lions openers duly dispatched them. Four fours and two sixes off the seamers, RP Singh and Ishant Sharma, meant Dhoni turned to M Ashwin in the last over of the Powerplay, but Finch took the legspinner for four fours in a 19-run over.
