Indian Company Planing to Send Tourist Capsules into Space 2025

Based in Mumbai, Aerospace Technology has already started production of a space capsule that can carry six people

In a recent science exhibition called ‘Akash Thatva,’ an Indian company called ‘Aerospace Technology’ presented its prototype space capsule called SKAP 1, which impressed not only scientists but also ordinary people.

One of the Indian company wants to ferry tourists in a spaceship attached to a million-high-altitude balloon system. This planing is expected to be completed by 2025, according to the company. Aura Aerospace Technology Pvt Ltd, based in Mumbai, is developing a unique space capsule inspired by Elon Musk’s SpaceX. The under-construction space capsule measures 10 feet by 8 feet and can carry six tourists and one pilot. The capsule, on the other hand, will remain within a 35-kilometer radius of the Earth.

SKAP

SKAP 1, a new prototype space capsule, was presented at the Akash Thatva science exhibition, where it drew a lot of attention. Space Aura founder and CEO Akash Porwal told PTI that the company’s goal is to begin taking flights in 2025, with tourists being sent near space by balloon-propelled capsule. There are two places in Karnataka and Madhya Pradesh that have been identified as potential launch sites for spacecraft. However, he stated that the final selected points will be considered in this regard. Porwal claims that the company is working hard to achieve its objectives with the assistance of ISRO and TIFR scientists.

This space capsule will be propelled by a balloon and will include all modern amenities, medical facilities, and an information system. This balloon will be filled with helium or hydrogen gas and will fly approximately 30 to 35 kilometers above sea level. Our tourists will be able to see Earth’s curvature and the blackness of space for about an hour here, he said. In terms of landing, this space balloon will be slowly deflated, and a parachute will be unpacked for a safer landing.

The intention, according to Referencing, is to entice space tourists to India by offering them a blend of space travel and Indian culture. In contrast to SpaceX and Blue Origin, he continued, “our company will help space travellers journey to space at a considerably lower cost.” Due to this, the price of a spacecraft flight has not yet been established but is anticipated to be in the range of INR 50 lakh.

MQM-P’s Izharul Hassan announces party to assume administrator role.

The MQM leader described a meeting with Sindh’s Chief Minister, Syed Murad Ali Shah, in which they also addressed the upcoming local body elections.

“Elections for municipal bodies came up as well. The same powers have been agreed upon from Kashmore to Karachi “Speaking to the media while providing details, the MQM leader remarked.

“A presentation on flood victims was given at the CM House; we talked about the agreement with the PPP; and we will shortly decide on a course of action.”

In reaction to the likelihood of general elections in Pakistan, Khawaja Izhar said, “People are waiting, so elections should be held and elected people should serve them.”

General Elections

Since neither the Sindh nor the federal governments had enough staff to provide security, MQM’s MPA also expressed fear about violence when commenting on the general elections.

Do we want elections when there is bloodshed on every street? the MPA questioned, adding that MQM is in favor of peaceful voting.

“After much suffering, calmly is back in Karachi. The Sindh government must stop anyone from undermining the rule of law “Khawaja Izhar said at the press conference.

Rupee Gains Against Dollar

Rupee Gains Against Dollar

Pakistani rupee strengthens against US dollar on positive sentiments.

The local currency increased by Rupee 0.26 or 0.12% from Friday’s closure of 221.92 to close at Rs221.66. Since there is some resistance near the 221 level due to the predominance of the bullish feeling in the market reinforced by certain favorable developments, currency dealers predict the currency to remain range-bound or advance somewhat versus the US dollar during the current week.

Once more in the positive range, the forward swaps show that there is enough forex liquidity. A memorandum of understanding between Pakistan and China has been signed on the establishment of RMB (Chinese currency) clearance arrangements in Pakistan.

International financial institutions are anticipated to invest in the nation. Pakistan has been promised $2.5 billion in World Bank flood assistance. Affected nations should be compensated, according to the participants in the climate summit, so aid may keep coming in.

In the meantime, a risk-on attitude helped the US dollar decline against the euro and sterling on Monday. The safe-haven US dollar index declined 0.54% to 110.49 against a basket of currencies. It had dropped about 2% by the end of last week.

Sindh Govt Launched New Electric Bus Service in Karachi

Govt launch completely environmentally-friendly electric bus service.

Sharjeel Inam Memon, the minister of Sindh’s information and transportation, posted a brief description of the new programme for new electric bus service on social media.

“In Karachi, the transportation division of the government of Sindh will start the new bus service. These are Pakistan’s first totally environmentally friendly electrical vehicles. Tomorrow, we’ll begin the test drive in the city “Tweeted he.

 

The Pakistan Peoples Party government unveiled a brand-new plan as it equally launched two new Peoples Bus Service lines and continuing transportation projects.

However, given that the similar project failed to succeed last year, there are still concerns about the viability of electric buses.

According to a source with access to the situation, “the Sindh government took a similar initiative in March 2021 and started the nation’s first electric bus project in Karachi with a promise that by the end of the year, the number of these eco-friendly vehicles will rise to 100.”

“The electric bus was launched to travel between Tower and Sohrab Goth, and the fare was set at just Rs. 10 for one stop.

New Zealand won’t underestimate Pakistan, says Tim Southee

New Zealand won’t underestimate Pakistan, says Tim Southee

NZ respect Pakistan in T20 semis despite struggle; advance Netherland.

“When you get to the top four, every side has a chance,” Southee said. “We’ve played a lot against underestimate Pakistan recently, and we know they’re a dangerous side.” “Credit to them; they probably came in thinking they didn’t stand a chance, but they put on another strong performance and will be a major threat in the semi-final.” New Zealand began their campaign with an 89-run victory over defending champions Australia, followed by a six-wicket victory over Sri Lanka, with a game against Afghanistan cancelled in between.

A win over Pakistan in Sydney would put New Zealand in a final against either England or India in Melbourne, but Southee said the Black Caps, who were defeated by Australia in last year’s final, were taking things one game at a time.

“There’s a lot of cricket to be played before we get to that point,” he said. “Pakistan are a good team, and we’ll have to be on top of our game to beat them on Wednesday.””Semi-final cricket is exciting; it’s why you come to watch these last few games.” Hopefully, we can keep playing like this and have another good performance in the semi-finals.”One of the side’s consistents is that we approach things pretty much the same way no matter what game it is.” That’s something to remember, and it’s something we excel at.”

New Zealand Relies on Past Experience.

New Zealand Captain Kane Williamson is banking on experience to propel New Zealand to their second consecutive Twenty20 World Cup final as they seek glory for the first time. The Black Caps have long been a force in white-ball cricket, but they have yet to convert that into world titles, despite coming agonisingly close in recent years, including a last-gasp defeat to Australia last year. It was their best performance in a T20 World Cup, following final defeats in the 50-over World Cup in both 2015 and 2019. Williamson believes the silverware drought will end this year.

“The team has played some excellent cricket.” “As long as the team keeps looking to improve and build on some of these performances, we should be able to move on,” he said. “Teams — you need a bat, you need a ball, and the guys have been operating well, really well adjusting to the surfaces, which I think is always very important in tournament cricket,” said the captain. “They’ve been outstanding… that’s the camp experience.” “Every team you play has different strengths, and you play on different grounds, so you have to think on your feet and adjust your plans.” “However, they’ve all been doing it for a long time.”

Pakistani Honour

Last-ball defeats to India and Zimbabwe appeared to have put an end to Pakistan’s tournament before it even began. However, Azam’s men came back to defeat the Netherlands and South Africa. Then, against all odds, they won when the Proteas were stunned by the Dutch and Pakistan easily defeated Bangladesh. It unexpectedly advanced the 2009 champions to the tournament’s final four for the second time.n “Losing two games was difficult, but I believe the team responded well in doing whatever they could control,” said Shan Masood, the standout performer among some shaky batting. Spinner Shadab Khan (10 wickets) and pace spearhead Shaheen Shah Afridi (8) have also played important roles in Pakistan’s comeback.

“Just playing for your country, putting that shirt on, I think it means a lot to every individual in this camp,” Masood said. “You play for pride, for yourself, and for your country.” We don’t need to look at anything else. “All we have to do is look in the mirror. We need to give our best effort, and we’ll try to make up for what we didn’t achieve previously.”
