DETAILS
01-05-2019: at 16:08:21: Scientists have 3D-printed an inexpensive and portable high-resolution microscope that could potentially be used to detect diabetes, malaria and other diseases in developing countries. The portable instrument produces 3D images with twice the resolution of traditional digital holographic microscopy, which is typically performed on an optical table in a laboratory. It is small enough to be used in the field or at the bedside and has potential for biomedical applications such as cell identification and disease diagnosis, according to the study published in the journal Optics Letters. In addition to biomedical applications, it could also be useful for research, manufacturing, defence and education.
Today May 1, 2019 the weather at Visakhapatnam was very cloudy with no Sun light at all but it has not been raining.

02 May 2019: 04:30 PM: A space rock collided with the Moon at a speed of 61,000 km an hour during the total lunar eclipse in January this year, excavating a crater 10 to 15 metres across, scientists say. Observers watching the total eclipse of the Moon on January 21 this year, witnessed a short-lived flash as a meteorite hit the lunar surface. Researchers from the University of Huelva and Institute of Astrophysics of Andalusia in Spain used eight telescopes to monitor the lunar surface during the event. The impact flash lasted 0.28 seconds and is the first ever filmed during a lunar eclipse, despite a number of earlier attempts. Total lunar eclipses take place when the Moon moves completely into the shadow of the Earth. The Moon takes on a red colour -- the result of scattered sunlight refracted through the Earth's atmosphere -- but is much darker than normal. The most recent lunar eclipse took place on January 21 this year, with observers in North and South America and Western Europe enjoying the best view. Just after the total phase of the eclipse began, a flash was seen on the lunar surface. Widespread reports from amateur astronomers indicated the flash -- attributed to a meteorite impact -- was bright enough to be seen with the naked eye.

It was followed by Merkamudidam 24.2mm, Cheepurpalli 19.2mm and Urta 15.2mm and Pusapati Refa Mandal close to coast received 14mm, and Bhogapuram recorded 8.8mm rainfall.

3.05.19: 9:41 AM: Loans drying up with the drying up of land would be an economic disaster. If that happened, farmers would die and banks shut down from accumulated losses.

The storm is currently over the Bay of Bengal about 500 km southwest of Puri. Wind speed may reach as high as 200 km per hour during the landfall in Odisha. The storm is likely to impact the coastal districts of Odisha, including Ganjam, Gajapati, Khurda, Puri, Jagatsinghpur, Kendrapada, Bhadrak, Jajpur and Balasore. In West Bengal, it will affect East and West Midnipur, South and North 24 Parganas, Howrah, Hooghly, Jhargram districts and Kolkata.02 May 2019: 04:30 PM: A space rock collided with the Moon at a speed of 61,000 km an hour during the total lunar eclipse in January this year, excavating a crater 10 to 15 metres across, scientists say.

It is surprising that the gravity waves appear along with the devastating cyclonic disturbances with massive winds in Visakhapatnam which lasted till 8.30PM when they suddenly subsided. It appears that the cyclonic disturbance has moved away from Visakhapatnam. 02-05-2019:

at Visakhapatnam very hot weather in the evening
with no air blowing possible Far Infra Red set up.
Cyclone Fani, stuck Odisha at 8 AM and landfall was at 11AM, which has been classified as an extremely severe cyclone (ESC), is the 10th such cyclone to hit India in May in past 52 years. A bus being rocked by the powerful gusts of the wind just before it is picked up like a toy and turned over on its side and dragged along the road for about 10 metres even as the eyewitnesses can be heard shouting “gira, gira...” Cyclone Fani, the strongest to hit India in five years, ripped through Puri, where it made landfall, on Friday morning along with heavy rains and howling winds. Accompanied by sustained winds of 180-190km/h, it wreaked havoc across the coastal town as it broke almost all coconut trees, ripped off roofs, flattened temporary structures and destroyed vehicles turning them turtle and dragging them along the road. Five people are reported to have died in the storm that pummelled the temple town of Puri. The storm, weakened by noonMay 3, 2019: Friday: High speed gales of over 140km/h, hit Vizianagaram district, power supply cut right from the evening. Shops were closed at 7PM. Next.

This video shows the destruction caused by the cyclone Fani in Odisha’s Bhubaneshwar. The trees have been completely destroyed and the road have been blocked in several areas. Alert citizens captured the destructive force of the Category 5 storm when it unleashed it’s fury with full force on the people of Bhubaneswar today. Many water tanks have blown off, lighting poles are down, air-conditioners damaged. Due to strong wind, petrol pump’s canopy was completely destroyed in the capital. Scores of buildings across the state have witnessed extensive damage due to cyclone Fani.
12 May, 2019: Biggest Roman coins' hoard found. The coins were found in a ceramic pot, which was buried in the centre of a large oval pit - lined with quarried limestone. What we found during the excavation suggests to me that the hoard was not put in the ground in secret, but rather was perhaps a ceremonial or votive offering. The Rauceby hoard is giving us further evidence for so-called 'ritual' hoarding in Roman Britain. The more than 3,000 copper alloy coins are being examined by The British Museum and will be valued.

14 May, 2019: 12:22 pm IST: Kodaikanal: It’s ice, but not quite. It isn’t cold but extremely hot, can exist only at extraordinarily high pressures, and is black. Researchers in the US have created ‘superionic water ice’, a form of crystalline water that may help scientists better understand the universe, especially the solar system’s most distant planetary denizens, Uranus and Neptune, which are believed to be primarily formed of this.
May 14, 2019: Shrinking Moon generating lunar quakes. The Moon’s surface crust is brittle, so it breaks as the Moon shrinks, forming “thrust faults” where one section of crust is pushed up over a neighbouring part. Our analysis gives the first evidence that these faults are still active and likely producing moonquakes today as the Moon continues to gradually cool and shrink.

The Rauceby hoard is giving us further evidence for so-called 'ritual' hoarding in Roman Britain. The more than 3,000 copper alloy coins are being examined by The British Museum and will be valued.

May 14, 2019: Shrinking Moon generating lunar quakes. The Moon’s surface crust is brittle, so it breaks as the Moon shrinks, forming “thrust faults” where one section of crust is pushed up over a neighbouring part. Our analysis gives the first evidence that these faults are still active and likely producing moonquakes today as the Moon continues to gradually cool and shrink.

Bangalore: K. S. Rangadhama Rao employed in a computer firm in Bangalore informed me that it rained nearly five hours, it is my observation that whenever it rains in Bangalore, some how the Godavari water in Andhra Pradesh flows water rich. This is almost the third time in this fortnight I have witnessed the happening. Since it rained five hours I am sure there would be a great inflow to Godavari River in the next couple of days, that would certainly help the Andhra State people and especially the farmers.
