New research compares two methods for keeping spacecraft in stable halo orbits near Earth Lagrange Point L1, finding the best approach depends on how much the spacecraft is nudged off course.

Bengaluru

New research in Bengaluru reveals that unchecked urban growth, replacing natural landscapes with concrete, dramatically intensifies urban heat islands, underscoring the critical need for green spaces and water bodies to maintain livable temperatures.

Mohali

The new filter is made of Polylactic Acid and Bismuth Ferrite uses piezo-photocatalysis, which combines the principles of piezocatalysis and photocatalysis to enhance the degradation of pollutants and other chemical transformations.
