NASA reveals Earth’s ‘twin’ planet is more active than we thought

NASA researchers have discovered evidence of tectonic activity on Venus by re-examining decades-old radar data. The findings suggest that Venus's surface is fragmented into crustal blocks that shift and rotate, indicating a mobile crust and internal heat. This discovery challenges the long-held belief that Venus is a geologically inactive planet and provides insights into Earth's habitability and planetary evolution.

World’s largest telescope rises in Chile, set to unlock the mysteries of the cosmos

In Chile's Atacama Desert, the European Southern Observatory is constructing the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT), poised to be the world's largest optical telescope. ESO's live webcam offers a global audience a front-row seat to this engineering marvel's creation. The ELT promises unprecedented views of the cosmos, exploring the origins of galaxies and the potential for life on exoplanets.

EOS-09 satellite set to be launched on May 18, will boost India’s border surveillance powers

India's surveillance capabilities are poised for a significant boost with ISRO's upcoming launch of the EOS-09 (RISAT-1B) radar imaging satellite on May 18. Equipped with advanced C-band synthetic aperture radar, the satellite will provide high-resolution images regardless of weather conditions. This strengthens border surveillance along sensitive areas with Pakistan and China, while also aiding in anti-terror operations and coastal monitoring.
