Correct Answer : ISRO
Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and its partners successfully demonstrated a precise landing experiment for a Reusable Launch Vehicle at the Aeronautical Test Range (ATR), Chitradurga, Karnataka.The Reusable Launch Vehicle Autonomous Landing Mission (RLV LEX) test was the second of five tests that are a part of ISRO’s efforts to develop RLVs, or space planes/shuttles, which can travel to low earth orbits to deliver payloads and return to earth for use again.“RLV performed approach and landing maneuvers using the Integrated Navigation, Guidance, and control system and completed an autonomous landing on the ATR airstrip at 7:40 AM IST. With that, ISRO successfully achieved the autonomous landing of a space vehicle,” ISRO announced on Sunday (2nd April 2023) morning. The experiment was carried out nearly seven years after the technology demonstration of an RLV and the first experiment was conducted successfully by ISRO on May 23, 2016, on the RLV-TD (HEX) mission.What is ISRO’s RLV TD project?According to ISRO, the series of experiments with the winged RLV-TD are part of efforts at “developing essential technologies for a fully reusable launch vehicle to enable low-cost access to space”. The RLV-TD will be used to develop technologies like hypersonic flight (HEX), autonomous landing (LEX), return flight experiment (REX), powered cruise flight, and Scramjet Propulsion Experiment (SPEX).“In the future, this vehicle will be scaled up to become the first stage of India’s reusable two-stage orbital (TSTO) launch vehicle,” according to ISRO.ISRO’s RLV-TD looks like an aircraft. It consists of a fuselage, a nose cap, double delta wings, and twin vertical tails.The 2016 experiment involved sending a winged spacecraft on a rocket powered by a conventional solid booster (HS9) engine used by ISRO into space. The spacecraft traveled at a speed of Mach 5 (five times the speed of sound) when re-entering the earth’s orbit and traveled a distance of 450 km before splashdown in the Bay of Bengal...Source : Indian Express
Correct Answer : Kochi
* The Vietnam Coast Guard Ship CSB 8005 visited Kochi to participate in the "Sahyog — Hop Tac" exercises aimed at enhancing maritime cooperation between India and Vietnam. * These exercises focus on improving interoperability, strengthening bilateral relations, and addressing regional maritime challenges such as security threats and environmental concerns, fostering mutual trust and collaboration.
Correct Answer : Visakhapatnam
* INS Nirdeshak, the Indian Navy's new survey ship, will be commissioned at the Naval Dockyard in Visakhapatnam on December 18, 2024. * Built by Garden Reach Shipbuilders & Engineers (GRSE), this 110-meter vessel is the second in the Survey Vessel (Large) Project.* Equipped with advanced hydrographic and oceanographic tools, it enhances India's maritime capabilities, particularly in the Indian Ocean Region. * The ship also underscores India's focus on self-reliance, with over 80% of its components sourced domestically. * The event marks a continuation of the legacy of the original INS Nirdeshak, which served the Navy for over 30 years.
Correct Answer : India
* India clinched the Women's Junior Asia Cup 2024 in hockey by defeating China in a penalty shootout with a score of 3-2 in Muscat, Oman. * Key contributors to the victory included goalkeeper Nidhi with three saves and goals by Sakshi Rana, Ishika, and Sunelita Toppo. * The match ended in a 1-1 draw in regulation time. Additionally, Deepika Sehrawat stood out as the tournament's top scorer with 12 goals, and Hockey India announced rewards for the players and staff to celebrate the achievement.
