🚨 ISRO Successfully Tests Cryogenic Rocket Engine Ahead of NVS-04 Satellite Launch!
India takes another step towards strengthening its indigenous NavIC navigation system.
> Cryogenic engine successfully tested for the GSLV-F19 mission.
> 200-second flight acceptance test conducted at Mahendragiri, Tamil Nadu.
> Engine performance met expected parameters.
> Engine cleared for integration into the rocket's cryogenic stage.
> GSLV-F19 will carry India's next-generation NVS-04 navigation satellite.
> NavIC provides coverage across India and up to 1,500 km beyond its borders.
Another significant milestone for India's space programme, strengthening indigenous satellite navigation capabilities and reducing dependence on foreign navigation systems.

🚨 Bengaluru-based Thinking Balloon (@thinkyballoon) has successfully tested their autonomous tethered aerostat for 3 days continuously.
The system can launch, hold position, dock and refill lift gas autonomously, with larger versions planned to carry hundreds of kg above 1 km.

🚨 Most space agencies take up to 10 months to prepare and conduct a cryogenic rocket-stage hot test.
ISRO achieved the same milestone for its heavy-lift LVM3 rocket in just 34 days, setting a world record for aerospace execution speed. 🗿🔥

🚨 BREAKING: India's Aditya-L1 reveals the hidden 3D shape of a solar eruption ☀️🇮🇳
Scientists at the Indian Institute of Astrophysics (IIA), Bengaluru, used the VELC instrument on @isro's Aditya-L1 to show that a coronal mass ejection (CME) does NOT always expand like a neat, symmetric bubble.
🔭 The event
A CME that erupted on 5 August 2024, studied close to the Sun in the low corona.
🔬 How they did it
• VELC used Doppler spectroscopy to measure plasma moving towards and away from us (line-of-sight motion). Regular coronagraphs can't do this.
• They combined it with imaging from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO).
• They added a 3D geometric and kinematic model of the expanding CME shell.
📊 Key finding
VELC caught two Doppler-shifted emission branches at the same time, one blue-shifted (moving towards us) and one red-shifted (moving away).
A symmetric bubble model could not explain this.
Only a CME with asymmetric lateral expansion plus a tilt matched the observations.
🌍 Why it matters
• A CME's shape affects how much drag it gets from the solar wind.
• That drag changes its speed.
• Its speed decides when it reaches Earth.
Knowing the true shape means better arrival-time predictions and better protection for satellites and communication.
✨ The big deal
VELC can help pin down a CME's 3D geometry from a single vantage point at L1. Until now, this usually needed multiple spacecraft watching from different angles.

(Top right) Aditya-L1/VELC spectra recorded during the eruption, showing two distinct branches of emission — one shifted toward shorter wavelengths (plasma moving toward us) and one toward longer wavelengths (plasma moving away) — the spectral signature of a three-dimensional, asymmetric solar eruption. (Bottom right) Model spectra reproducing the observed pattern, confirming asymmetric lateral expansion of the CME in the inner corona.
