ABSTRACT

          Melbourn Scientists have developed a new Solar Paint to derive clean energy from air:  Solarpaint can absorb water vapour from air and it can split it to generate hydrogen. The new material synthetic molybdenum-sulphide acts as a semi-conductor.  Observations of these events were made in 1783, 1908 and 1916. Found that they are a part of the variability of airglow, presumably due to when the waves in the upper atmosphere converge over specific locations on Earth, they get amplified the naturally occurring airglow, resulting in a faint light in the night sky, which appears as green due to the activities of atoms of oxygen in the high atmosphere. Hindhriniva on  early morning 20 feet wide earth has sunk in Kadapa Zillah Chinnamandem Kalibanda this has happened. Too hot to fly and about 40 flights cancelled in South West US. Death Valley in California, temperatures are expected to reach 53C this week. (June 21, 2017). Kotcherlakota Village exists in Kalidindi Mandal of Krishna District. 23 June 2017 FRIDAY: A handloom weaver Nalla Vijay from Sircilla of Telangana State presented a  unique superfine silk saree and a shawl that fits in a match box to Lord Venketewsara on this day. Herbal Fabric: Lingerie fashioned from fabric soaked in turmeric, dipped in neem, and infused with Indian maddar (a flowering plant) is making its way to boutiques in Britain and online stores in Australia and Japan. 25 June 2017: Monday: The SUN festival the Sacsahuaman fortress in the hills above the Andean city of Cuzco, Peru, a most important festival with indigenous ceremony in the Peruvian Andes. 27 May 2017: People take part in a pagen ceremony to celebrate summer solstice near Gulbokovov Village 80km from Moscow. 27 June 2017: Mercury touches 49C in Arizona, with temperatures soaring to 120F (48.8C) with a  credit card curled out of shape, and a biscuit cooked on car dashboard, a buckled post-box, and an egg fried on ground appeared. Planes have been grounded. 28 June 2017: The first-sized meteorite weighing about 500 grams (one pound) crashed through the roof of a shed in the small town of Broek in Waterland, just north of Amsterdam, in January 2017. Discovered next morning under a broken pile of wood from the roof, no other fragments were found. Meteroite came probably from region between Mars and Jupiter from a large asteroid belt. It may be 4.5 billion years  old.  28 June 2017: Uranus magnetosphere gets flipped on and off like a light switch every day as it rotates along with the planet. NASA Voyger 2 spacecraft picked up the data. The magnetosphere open in one orientation allowing solar wind to flow in, later it is  closed forming a shield deflecting away the solar wind from the planet. This happens on a daily basis! The Airglow recorded an amazing feature after many years on Earth. June 29, 2017, 7:08 AM:  At least 26 tornadoes rip through Midwest as more severe storms loom. Wednesday. The strong wind ripped roofs off homes and knocked down trees.


DETAILS:
16 June 2017: Melbourn Scientists have developed a new Solar Paint to derive clean energy from air:  Solar Paint can absorb water vapour from air and it can split it to generate hydrogen. The new material synthetic molybdenum-sulphide acts as a semi-conductor and catalyses the splitting of water atoms into hydrogen and oxygen. Mixing it with Titanium Oxide particles leads to a sun light absorbing paint that produces hydrogen fuel from solar energy and moist air. [Daeneke published in ACS Nano.] Addition of the new paint to a brick wall allows energy harvesting and fuel production in real estate. Any place with water vapour in air is suitable.

MYSTERY OF BRIGHT NIGHTS SOLVED: An unusual glow that appears in the sky after dark makes to see the distant mountains, possible to read a newspaper and check their wrist watch. Observations of these events were made in 1783, 1908 and 1916. Found that they are a part of the variability of airglow, presumably due to when the waves in the upper atmosphere converge over specific locations on Earth, they get amplified the naturally occurring airglow, resulting in a faint light in the night sky, which appears as green due to the activities of atoms of oxygen in the high atmosphere. In the bright nights it can be seen visible to the naked eye.
23 June 2017: In Vijayanagaram, Lightning killed a 32 old shepard and injured another relative who fainted but recovered back to his senses, only to find his companion dead,  in Tumarada village of Balijapeta mandal on Wednesday 21 June night.

29 June 2017: Worshiping fire: Almost 2,000 years ago, the eternal fires that burst from the ground helped foster Zoroastrianism in the region. One of the oldest monotheistic religions, Zoroastrianism is based on the belief that elements are pure and that fire represents God’s light. The flames even gave the country its name ‒ ‘Azer’, in fact, means ‘fire’. This fiery legacy is still evident in Baku's Ateshgah fire Temple, known as the Temple of Eternal Fire. Even if the eternal flame here is not the original, the temple's structure looks as it did when it was constructed several hundred years ago. This is where, centuries ago, merchants and adventurers of Zoroastrian and Hindu faiths would share quarters and stories of their respective travels to Europe and South and Central Asia.

ABSTRACT
New Delhi, June 2, 2017:15:59 IST: People in Delhi and adjoining areas were rattled by a 5.0 magnitude earthquake early today. Tremors felt again in Haryana's Rohtak after 5.0 magnitude rattles Delhi, adjoining areas: Tremors were felt in New Delhi and parts of National Capital Region (NCR) around 4.30 am today. The earthquake which lasted for about a minute around 4:20 am was centered in Gohana, Haryana. Shock waves were felt in Delhi, Noida, Ghaziabad, Faridabad, Gurgaon and other nearby places. Tremors were felt again in Rohtak, Haryana at 8:13 am. After the five days of intense heat the rain gave a tremendous relaxation on the 4 June. Cloudy weather cleared around 12:30 PM on 4 June.  A 4 kg meteorite fell in Rajasthan on 5 June night, as a dark grey rock  from the sky created a small crater on landing in Mukunpura  village, near Jaipur, Rajasthan. The rock which weighs around 4 kg appears to be a meteorite and has piqued the interest of locals. A few more pieces of the object were also found. 5 June 2017: Since early morning it was exceedingly hot with blazing Sun, my travel to bank resulted  in a heat stroke and I was forced to take rest till the evening. Surprisingly it cooled in the evening and on Tuesday morning around 6.30 AM it started raining. Andhra Jyothi newspaper reporter died due to thunderbolt strike while travelling ankireddi-vengalayapalem road. Sanampudi a grown lady died due to the thunderbolt strike in the field in the evening of Monday, 5 June. A couple working in fields died on 6 June. A palm tree got affected by a lightning and was burnt out in Jalaalapuram. June 7: He says he saw a bright flash of light from the office's light switch, heard a loud crack and then the lights went out. Gemayel says it was a few minutes before he realized his left hand was blistering from getting hit by the bolt that arced through the light switch. India may experience more deadly heatwaves in the years to come and during 1960to 2000 mean temperaturesin India from 27C to 27.5C, killing more than 100 people due to heatwaves. This is jump of 146% from 13% to 32%. In 1975 and 1976 there were only 43 and 34 heat related fatalities when the mean temperature was 27.4C. When higher than 28C, in 1998 at least 1600 people died. The most heatwave days occurred in 1998(16) when 1655 people died, and 2003(13) when 1500 died. 09 June 2017: From 5 PM to almost 7 PM it rained heavily with huge thunders and may be several lightning falls, nearby places, and I felt almost the clouds and the banging of thunders was on top of our  house in the Muralinagar area. This may be the onset of the expected monsoon rains of this year. Saturday, June 10, 2017: 23:35: Mercury to rise in north India, no heat waves though: Barmer and Jaisalmer in Rajasthan were the hottest places across the country on Saturday, said the weather office, which forecast slight rise in temperature in entire north India, including Delhi, over the next three-four days.

On June 8, 2017, Thursday Moon was at 22:30 India time it was at 252,526 miles or 406,401 km Earth from. It wasn’t however a full moon and the mini-moon would return about one month and 18 days later with each passing year. In 2018 smallest moon would show up on July 27, and in 2019 it will fall on September 14, and in 2020 on October 31. It frequently occurs in 14 lunar months, 14 returns to full moon a period of about one year and 48 days.That moment actually occurred on Thursday (June 8) at 6:30 p.m. EDT (2230 GMT), when the moon was 252,526 miles (406,401 km) from Earth. The moment of full moon comes 14 hours and 40 minutes later, at 9:10 a.m. EDT (1310 GMT) on Friday morning. For what it's worth, the moon will have moved 81 miles (131 km) closer to Earth, compared with the actual moment of apogee the previous evening. The moon will be at least 98-percent illuminated on four consecutive evenings: June 7, 8, 9 and 10.  So from Wednesday through Saturday of this week, a casual observer who is not looking carefully at the moon would probably say that it looked full, since the defect of illumination is so slight. In contrast, when the full moon is near perigee, the change is more evident. Within 24 hours of full phase, even a casual observer would note the moon appearing slightly "out of roundness."

RAINFALL: Most of Telangana received above normal pre-monsoon rainfall with Adilabad 114mm and Hyderabad received 110mm. Next two days Kerala would be pounded by 7-11 cm rain. Coastal Karnataka recorded 13 cm in the last couple of days. Real monsoon rains are little away. Heavy rains are likely in coastal Andhra and Rayalaseema, Several places registered a rise in maximum temperatures during last 24 hours (11 June). Rainfall data: Bobbili8 cm,Pathapatnam 7 cm, Merakmudidam 5 cm, Guntur 4 cm, Gajapathinagaram 4 cm, Visakhapatnam 3 cm, Jupadu Bungalow 3 cm, and Chilamathur 1 cm. Northern limit of Mnsoon passes through Kolhapur,Gadag, Anantapur, Nellore with possible travelof monsoon toayalaseema and some partsof coastal Andhra. Last two days Visakhapatnam was cloudy but no heavy rain except a few showers.
         Oceanic air flowing toward India below 6,000 metres (19,700 feet) is deflected in accordance with the Coriolis Effect. The converging moist oncoming stream becomes unstable over the hot land and is subject to rapid convection. Towering cumulonimbus clouds rise thousands of metres, producing violent thunderstorms and releasing latent heat in the surrounding air. As a result, the upper tropospheric warm belt migrates north-westward from the ocean to the land. The main body of air above 9,000 metres (29,500 feet) maintains a strong easterly flow. There would be no heat wave for the next five days despite slight rise in temperature. Rains would continue at isolated places. On Saturday, the national capital recorded 39.5 degrees maximum temperature and minimum 27.4 degrees Celsius -- both as per the season's average so far.

13 June 2017: 9 hours ago: Greece earthquake hits Lesbos: Tremors felt in Istanbul and Athens. A strong earthquake has struck off the Aegean coast of western Turkey and the Greek island of Lesbos, with tremors felt in Istanbul and Athens. The epicentre of the 6.3R quake was 5 km (3 miles) south of Plomari, a town on the coast of Lesbos. Several buildings were damaged but the village of Vrisa was worst hit with 10 people taken to hospital. Turkey and Greece sit on significant fault lines and earthquakes are common.

June 13 , 2017 , 17:13 IST: Over the last week, mysterious cracks have been appearing in the earth in the area of Manipur hills sending local residents to refugee camps and drawing tourists curious to see the fissures breaking the roads. First appearing on June 4, residents described a sudden 'earth movement' as the mysterious 'earth crack' appeared in the Kankpokpi district of Manipur leading to a panic of potential landslides. 
Fig.5 The cracks were extensive
in Songtun Manipur
The crack originated below the village of J Songtun and spread towards Kalikhola village. Within 24 hours of the first crack, 11 houses had collapsed and 19 others were on the edge. The cracks ran through the surrounding paddy fields and roads destroying them as well. The crack widened further and damaged structures within a 5 km radius, including water pipelines and electric posts. In wake of the expanding cracks, around 250 people have been shifted to relief camps and Manipur Tribal Development Minister N Kayisii has provided Rs 3 lakh in financial assistance to those displaced by the fissure. The fissure was inspected by the principal secretary, relief and disaster management along with other Kangpokpi officials and further Rs 20 lakh was sanctioned as relief. However, the causes of the cracks remain a mystery. Geological Survey of India sent a team to study the crack and while there were rumors that the cracks were a result of a dormant volcano in the Koubru range showing signs of life, the rumors were dismissed. An associate professor at a science college in the state, Th Ranjit opined that the cracks were a result of the recent bout of heavy rains in deforested hills which had rich soil cover. Similar earth cracks have appeared internationally as well, in South Africa and in US, in the middle of the Arizona desert. While sometimes the cracks were attributed to the shifting of the earth's tectonic plates, others were called sinkholes. Such cracks in Arizona were believed to be caused by the withdrawal of ground water which left empty space where the earth caved in.

 Jun 15, 2017, 09.05 AM: Rain clouds thinning out in west and central India: Low-flying  clouds that usually bring rain in the monsoon have thinned out and reduced over the years in India, according to a study of 50 years of observations. More or less rain can affect crop yields playing havoc with food security and the economy. More hot days also affects large numbers of people. Low clouds are usually those found up to 6,500 feet. They are very difficult to study and predict but have a great impact on trapping heat as also rain bearing. Changing climate has induced further unpredictability in their behavior.
