Photonic Propulsion

Hey there! Thanks for tuning with  TMC . It's has been long since I last posted! anyways I am back again with this mind blowing post! So here's a brief description: ever thought of reaching 1/4 the speed of light? NO, right??! well it might be possible in the near future! It may sound like a Science Fiction, right? but wait! , don't you think everything we see around us was once a Sci-Fi? The computers , the Internet all those gadgets and the most important of all - ELECTRICITY, which is like the boss of everything.Okay , let's get back to the point. So, what is PHOTONIC PROPULSION  ?  The term sounds like a  photon driven launching system i.e. a mechanism in which the momentum of photons would be used to drive spaceships and rovers through the sea of space   ( I will come back to this later) . You might think what the hell am I saying , that's what is , the principle behind such a propulsion system is to reduce the time taken to travel through space and...

Mercury Transit

Hey!, welcome back and thanks for tuning in with the TMC . Perhaps I am a little late for this post hope you don't mind it! So here's the picture of the Transit! Mercury is the spot near the top. Mercury Transit! If you have any queries regarding the Transit check out my previous post, ' Mercury Transit '.

Mercury Transit

Finally the wait is over!! you don't have to be patient anymore. Yes! you read it right , only a few hours to go for which, perhaps , the entire population is waiting. And this eagerness is for the most awaited event of this month i.e. Mercury Transit , the  pass of the planet Mercury from over the sun. This post will give you a brief description about the transit and will guide  you so that you can safely observe it without causing harm to your precious eyes.  So what's is Mercury Transit? , let us for a while leave the word Mercury and focus on Transit . Transit in Astronomy means pass by of an celestial from over another celestial body i.e. when one body appears to move across the other one, these observations are seen by someone that lie on either side of the two bodies. For a transit to occur the three bodies should be in a perfect alignment such that they lie in the same plane.  The above definition may seem like a bit confusing, right? No ...
