A buzzing model plane in your hand set to start flying over your head! A RC helicopter chopping its wings at the control of your fingertips! Similarly, your happiness getting quadrupled as the Quadcopter you’ve made is fine tuning its flight to perfection! Welcome to Aeromodelling. An 80...
The prime part of an airplane is its engine. So how does it work and keep the plane going? In simple words, jet engines create a powerful push that propels the aircraft forward with immense force, making for rapid flight. This works on Newton’s third law of motion: For every action, there...
NASA and ISRO are currently working on the development of NISAR (NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar), which is a visionary satellite that will detect the surface motions of the Earth. The satellite will be launched into a near-polar orbit in 2022 from the Satish Dhawan Space Center in...
Who is Galileo Galilei? Galileo Galilei thoroughly studied speed and velocity, gravity and free fall, the theory of relativity, inertia, and projectile motion, as well as applied science and technology, describing the qualities of pendulums and “hydrostatic balances.” He...
Here’s an engaging video about our solar system. I have covered the battered planet Mercury, the scorching planet Venus, our home planet Earth, the red planet Mars, the massive planet Jupiter, the beautiful planet Saturn, as well as the frozen ice giants Uranus and Neptune.
Theory based conceptual learning has now become classroom pedagogy of the past. Increasingly, instructors, schools and parents are seeking hands-on activities, real-world projects and application based learning in the areas of STEM. STEM careers will increase by 17 percent by 2030;...
Yes, we do have pieces of Mars on Earth. As bizarre as it may sound, it is actually true! We often believe that since the planets are so far apart, they don’t usually swap material. The Solar System is a violent environment, full of asteroid and comet collisions. Yet planets are too large...
Newton’s Law of Gravitation is universal. Airplanes aren’t any exception. They need to act against this law to lift off and fly. And, you need to have exemplary knowledge of Aerodynamics to make them not just fly, but also to take-off and land, to maneuver, to climb, to turn...
Do you know Jupiter hosts over seventy moons? And, poor Pluto is not considered a planet anymore! Our very own solar system of eight planets continues to reveal amazing facts and inspire some out-of-this-world fantasies. Test your knowledge of the planets and the sun with this fifty...
