June. 16, 2021, 17:22 IST: Cabinet approves Deep Ocean Mission to tap vast marine living and non-living resources. The Mission will help India to explore and mine strategic polymetallic nodules such as Copper, Nickel, Cobalt and Manganese in 75,000 sq. km of area in the central Indian Ocean Basin, and put the country in the category of a select group of nations, including the US, China, Japan, Germany and Canada, in conducting oceanographic research in the deep sea. The Mission has been allocated Rs 4,077 crore for a period of five years. It’ll be implemented in a phased manner by the ministry of earth sciences (MoES) through multiple institutions such as ISRO, BARC, CSIR, DRDO, Department of biotechnology and others. The estimated cost for the first phase of the Mission for the three years (2021-2024) will be Rs 2,823 crore.

June 15, 2021 20:45 IST: UPDATED: JUNE 15, 2021 20:45 IST: 78,000 tonnes of FCI rice to be used for ethanol production this year. Food Secretary, however, emphasises that maize will form the primary feedstock for grain-based ethanol production instead, at a subsidised rate of ₹20 a kg. “If you see the world over too, of the 10,000 crore litres of ethanol produced annually, around 73 per cent comes from maize and a very small proportion is from rice. In India too, surplus rice from FCI will only be used to ensure that 100 crore liters of capacity coming up for grain based distilleries don’t fall short of feedstock while maize production picks up to feed these plants,” food secretary Sudhanshu Pandey told reporters. He was responding to a question on whether the FCI selling surplus rice at Rs 2,000 per quintal for making ethanol is reasonable while it sells the same rice at higher price for open market operations and also on who bears the subsidy for such cheap sale. The subsidy will be incurred as the economic cost of FCI rice for 2020-21 is estimated to be around Rs 30 per kg while the same will be sold to grain-based distilleries at Rs 20 per kg as per the new policy.

Tendrils of galaxies up to hundreds of millions of light-years long may be the largest spinning objects in the universe, a new study finds. But in the new research, Libeskind and his colleagues found that cosmic filaments, or gigantic tubes made of galaxies, apparently spin. "There are structures so vast that entire galaxies are just specks of dust," Libeskind said. "These huge filaments are much, much bigger than clusters."

They inaugurate the annual cultivation by ploughing five or nine rounds in their fields on this day, as it is supposed to be an auspicious day auguring fresh showers. They also cook payasam, a small dish and enjoy it with their children and relatives. In some parts of the country cultivators worship the bullock. They wash the cattle, smear and decorate the hooves and horns with oil and a variety of colours and feed them with pulagam (rice, green gram dal and sesame cooked together). The bodies are also decorated gaily with coloured circles and designs. Little bells are tied to their horns and necks and they are driven out into the open space to wander and run about. The tillers take home a part of the festoon that is tied to the village gate, after the cattle pass under it as a talisman for the ensuring year. Children collect seeds a week in advance and sow them in the corners of the temple. By the festival day, the young plants sprout and a few of these tender plants are taken home by the tillers and kept in their granaries for a prosperous crop during the coming year. The gaily dressed people and the colourfully decorated cattle make the village a grand spectacle of colour and pageantry.

Nature Communications, scientists claim that they have found clues to why the eruptions in Indonesia are so explosive. According to them, the explosiveness of a volcano depends upon the nature and compositions of its magma, a hot, dense and fluid or semi-fluid material in the mantle, just below the earth’s crust.Scientists used ultramodern mass spectrometers to examine the mineral crystals in the lava to study their composition. “When the magma reacts with, for instance, the limestone that’s found in central Java right under the volcano, it becomes full to bursting point with carbon dioxide and water, and the eruptions get more explosive.”

June. 30, 2021: An Event So Wild It Could Make Anyone Feel Cosmically Small. Marina Koren 8 hrs ago. An international team of researchers announced today that it has detected evidence of one of the most extreme objects in the cosmos, a black hole, colliding with another of the most extreme objects in the cosmos, a neutron star, forming an even bigger black hole. And the team caught it happening not once, but twice.And these massive events are happening on a cosmic level all the time. Based on the new findings, the researchers estimate that a mash-up between a black hole and a neutron star occurs about once a month within 1 billion light-years of Earth. Such events probably take place in every galaxy in the universe, including our own—we just haven’t detected one here yet.

(London) for stimulating encouragement to publish my articles on Science & Technology given in trusciencetrutechnology@blogspot.com. He is also grateful to Late Mrs. Peramma Rangadhama Rao for her admiration and support for the publication of my articles. Her biodata and personal details I have listed in the trusciencetrutechnology@blogspot.com. She told me that the Meteorides that fall on the Earth carry with them the human life ingrediants. Recent find of water and other earthly elements in distant objects reported by Japanese object 25143 Itokawa asteroid has shown that the object had both extraterrestrial water and organic material and also Americans findings were thrilling. When her son Dr K V N Rao (Ill) had been to USA, she expected a possible trip to visit USA (not materialized) and always observed the 4th July, the day of US independence.
