This Presentation covers the starting of Space Science studies and the relevant online links that can help people to make themselves capable of finding their own probable position in various space agencies.
I was invited to give a talk on Space Startups at Jain University during World SpaceWeek.
It sums up, all government Space Agencies, Privately Well established and New Startups of Space Industry.
The foremost advocate for all sectors of the space industry and an expert in all aspects of space, the Space Foundation is a global, nonprofit leader in space awareness activities, educational programs that bring space into the classroom and major industry events, including the Space Symposium, all in support of our mission "to advance space-related endeavors to inspire, enable and propel humanity."
Telescopes and space-based observation tools allow humans to observe and study objects in space. Telescopes use lenses and mirrors to collect electromagnetic radiation and produce magnified images. The largest optical telescopes are in Hawaii, with an even larger one currently under construction. Space-based tools like satellites, probes, and rovers have been launched to observe space without atmospheric interference and visit other celestial bodies. The Voyager probes left our solar system, carrying messages about humanity. The International Space Station is an orbiting laboratory built from parts delivered by shuttles and rockets.
The International Space Station is an artificial satellite and habitable laboratory in the sky that orbits Earth. It is used for scientific research in fields like medicine, industry and meteorology, to study life in microgravity, and explore space. Construction of the ISS began in 1998 with the assembly of initial elements, and the first astronauts arrived in 2000 to live aboard the station. Made up of assembled modules, the ISS features solar arrays, motors, laboratories and life support systems to maintain an atmospheric environment for astronauts. Measuring over 100 meters wide and 50 meters long, the ISS orbits Earth at an altitude of 400 km and travels at a speed of 26,000 km/h.
This document summarizes NASA's research on small satellites and nanosatellites. It discusses how smaller spacecraft can enable more science missions with lower costs through increased numbers of missions. Smallsats allow for a faster learning cycle and development of new technologies. NASA's Ames Research Center has developed several smallsat platforms and payloads over the past decade for applications in Earth science, heliophysics, planetary science, and astrophysics. These include gene expression, pharmaceutical, and spectroscopy experiments. Ames is working to mature technologies for smallsat missions like advanced components, autonomous operations, and formation flying.

The document discusses the history and future of space exploration. It outlines key events like Sputnik 1, the first man and woman in space, and the moon landing. Future goals discussed include searching for life on other planets within 20 years, landing humans on Mars by 2023, exploring Jupiter and asteroids, understanding dark matter, and commercial space tourism. It also summarizes India's space agency ISRO and its missions like Chandrayaan and Mars Orbiter Mission. The conclusion reiterates that space continues to be a frontier with many mysteries left to solve.
The document summarizes past Mars rovers and landers, including Viking 1 and 2 from the 1970s, Mars Pathfinder and Sojourner from 1997, and the ongoing Spirit and Opportunity rovers from 2004. It also discusses the Phoenix lander from 2008, which confirmed the presence of water ice on Mars. Key findings include evidence of past water activity from chemical analyses and geological features, measurements of atmospheric conditions and weathering, and ongoing assessments of habitability and potential for past or present life.
This document discusses various methods that archaeologists use to locate and excavate archaeological sites. Surface features visible from the air like crop marks, soil marks, and satellite imagery can help identify potential sites. Geophysical techniques like ground penetrating radar, resistivity surveys, and magnetic surveying are used to detect underground features without excavation. Once a site is located, archaeologists systematically excavate using methods like the grid system or open area technique to record the vertical and horizontal relationships between archaeological finds and features. Underwater archaeology employs some similar techniques as well as diving methods.
European exploration in the 15th-16th centuries faced several barriers including beliefs that the world was flat, religious customs conflicting with science, dangers of long sea voyages with limited technology, and threats along trade routes. New ships like the caravel and navigational tools like the compass and astrolabe helped overcome these barriers. Motivations for exploration included dwindling resources in Europe, Viking map discoveries, Prince Henry's successful Portuguese explorations, advancing technology, desires for wealth, and seeking new trade routes to Asia. However, unexpected outcomes arose such as competing claims over new lands, wars limiting resources, language barriers hindering collaboration, Europeans lacking immunity to new diseases, and intentions to control and convert encountered peoples.

Authoring a personal GPT for your research and practice: How we created the Q...Leonel Morgado
Thematic analysis in qualitative research is a time-consuming and systematic task, typically done using teams. Team members must ground their activities on common understandings of the major concepts underlying the thematic analysis, and define criteria for its development. However, conceptual misunderstandings, equivocations, and lack of adherence to criteria are challenges to the quality and speed of this process. Given the distributed and uncertain nature of this process, we wondered if the tasks in thematic analysis could be supported by readily available artificial intelligence chatbots. Our early efforts point to potential benefits: not just saving time in the coding process but better adherence to criteria and grounding, by increasing triangulation between humans and artificial intelligence. This tutorial will provide a description and demonstration of the process we followed, as two academic researchers, to develop a custom ChatGPT to assist with qualitative coding in the thematic data analysis process of immersive learning accounts in a survey of the academic literature: QUAL-E Immersive Learning Thematic Analysis Helper. In the hands-on time, participants will try out QUAL-E and develop their ideas for their own qualitative coding ChatGPT. Participants that have the paid ChatGPT Plus subscription can create a draft of their assistants. The organizers will provide course materials and slide deck that participants will be able to utilize to continue development of their custom GPT. The paid subscription to ChatGPT Plus is not required to participate in this workshop, just for trying out personal GPTs during it.

ESR spectroscopy in liquid food and beverages.pptxPRIYANKA PATEL
With increasing population, people need to rely on packaged food stuffs. Packaging of food materials requires the preservation of food. There are various methods for the treatment of food to preserve them and irradiation treatment of food is one of them. It is the most common and the most harmless method for the food preservation as it does not alter the necessary micronutrients of food materials. Although irradiated food doesn’t cause any harm to the human health but still the quality assessment of food is required to provide consumers with necessary information about the food. ESR spectroscopy is the most sophisticated way to investigate the quality of the food and the free radicals induced during the processing of the food. ESR spin trapping technique is useful for the detection of highly unstable radicals in the food. The antioxidant capability of liquid food and beverages in mainly performed by spin trapping technique.
EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Weste...Sérgio Sacani
Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.
When I was asked to give a companion lecture in support of ‘The Philosophy of Science’ (https://shorturl.at/4pUXz) I decided not to walk through the detail of the many methodologies in order of use. Instead, I chose to employ a long standing, and ongoing, scientific development as an exemplar. And so, I chose the ever evolving story of Thermodynamics as a scientific investigation at its best.
Conducted over a period of >200 years, Thermodynamics R&D, and application, benefitted from the highest levels of professionalism, collaboration, and technical thoroughness. New layers of application, methodology, and practice were made possible by the progressive advance of technology. In turn, this has seen measurement and modelling accuracy continually improved at a micro and macro level.
Perhaps most importantly, Thermodynamics rapidly became a primary tool in the advance of applied science/engineering/technology, spanning micro-tech, to aerospace and cosmology. I can think of no better a story to illustrate the breadth of scientific methodologies and applications at their best.
