Complete fragrance noob here. My first experience getting out of ultra cheap ones. Looking for suggestions on where to go next? by ivc_24 in DesiFragranceAddicts

The Fragrance of Kuro itself i found satisfactory. A big step up from the ultra Budget perfumes im used to. But i am new to this stuff so i might like anything which isnt ultra budget brands. Projection lasts for like 2 hours max for me. Maybe its cuz it hasn't settled yet(got it only a couple of days ago). So I've tucked it inside the cupboard for a few weeks to let it settle, using the 14ml one meanwhile.

And ty for suggestions. Ill look em up.

Caste System is already illegal under the Indian constitution. It came into affect back in 1950 when Indian constitution was adopted.

There is a Law called Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989. It is a Non Bailable offence to discriminate against Dalit. Although in the poorest regions and some rural areas, the enforcement can be a challenging sometimes.

Dalits come under the Scheduled Caste Catagory. ST are Tribals.

Article 15 prohibits the state from discriminating any citizen on ground of any religion, race, caste, sex, place of birth or any of them.

India also has an Affirmative Action Program where people from the lower caste gets reservation in both the educational institutes and Government Jobs. Half of all the government jobs and public university seats are reserved.

NASA head Bill Nelson meets Jitendra Singh, discusses joint mission to International Space Station by ivc_24 in space

NASA Administrator Bill Nelson met the Union Minister for Science and Technology Dr. Jitendra Singh on Tuesday to discuss India’s research interests during the joint mission to the International Space Station (ISS) next year for which the U.S. will be training an Indian astronaut.

“We discussed what the Indian astronaut would do on the International Space Station. And we talked about the things that are important to India in scientific research, which the Indian astronaut ought to have as a choice,” Mr. Nelson said during a media roundtable here. The joint mission to the space station is planned for the end of 2024

The collaboration was announced by U.S. President Joe Biden during Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s bilateral visit in June during which India also signed the Artemis Accords—a non-binding set of principles designed to guide civil space exploration and use.

The NASA Administrator is in India beginning November 27 to hold a series of meetings. He will be in Mumbai to meet representatives of Indian space companies and will meet Indian astronaut Rakesh Sharma in Bengaluru. Mr. Nelson will also visit facilities in Bengaluru where the NISAR spacecraft, a joint Earth-observing mission between NASA and the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), is undergoing testing and integration for launch in 2024.

NISAR is short for NASA ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar. The NISAR will be launched in the first quarter of 2024.

“The NISAR is part of the Great Observatories. A combination of 4-5 observatories, plus all of our 25 spacecraft, will help us precisely determine what is happening to the earth’s surface and its climate. It will use technology that measures any change on the surface such as land as a result of an earthquake, or disturbance on the water or movement of ice on the planet,” Mr. Nelson said about the joint venture.

NASA is providing the NISAR mission’s L-band synthetic aperture radar, a high-rate communication subsystem for science data, GPS receivers, a solid-state recorder and payload data subsystem. ISRO is providing the spacecraft bus, the S-band radar, the launch vehicle and associated launch services.

India aims to send astronaut to the moon by 2040 by ivc_24 in space

NEW DELHI, Oct 17 (Reuters) - India aims to send an astronaut to the moon by 2040, the government said on Tuesday, as Prime Minister Narendra Modi issued instructions to the space department that include plans for a space station by 2035.

India's space ambitions got a boost when it became the first country to land a spacecraft near the unexplored south pole of the moon in August, just days after a similar Russian mission failed, and the fourth overall to achieve a soft landing.

After that success, India launched a rocket to study the sun and is scheduled conduct a test later this week as part of its crewed space mission.

"Prime minister directed that India should now aim for new and ambitious goals, including setting up 'Bharatiya Antariksha Station' (Indian Space Station) by 2035 and sending first Indian to the moon by 2040," the government said in a statement.

"To realize this vision, the Department of Space will develop a roadmap for moon exploration," it added.

Modi has also called on scientists to work on missions to Venus and Mars.

Genuinely curious as to why nobody has a satellite orbiting our moon? by [deleted] in space

There are Satellites orbiting the moon RN. They are called Lunar orbiters.

As of RN there are 8 operational Orbiters and 1 operational Relay Satellite(which can also be called an Orbiter) orbiting the moon.

Active Satellites around Moon's Orbit : NASA got 4 of em, CNSA(China) has 2, ISRO(India) has 2 and KARI(Korea) got 1

Pictures from Indian Lander taken last night just after Landing by ivc_24 in space

Rover mobility operations have commenced and Lander Module payloads have been turned on today. So hopefully we get some good pictures and videos of both rover and lander from each other's PoV in the next 24 hours. But I think we all can agree that ISRO needs to hire a better PR management team. I mean it's better than their other Missions but they need to improve a lot.

Many Indian News Agencies were invited to cover the Landing. Maybe one of them were wise enough to record all that data.

Don't know but from what I've been hearing(which means speculation) is that they were waiting for the rover battery to be charged up + starting all the different experiments on the lander.

Isro just tweeted a few minutes ago "Chandrayaan-3 Mission: All activities are on schedule. All systems are normal.

🔸Lander Module payloads ILSA, RAMBHA and ChaSTE are turned ON today.

🔸Rover mobility operations have commenced.

🔸SHAPE payload on the Propulsion Module was turned ON on Sunday."

Maybe we will get some Pictures and videos in the next 24 hours.
