Meanwhile ISRO is preparing to launch it's monstrous rocket beast GSLV-Mk3 aka LVM3 on this 5th of June , 2017.
Hyderabad : Blog report on ISRO's GSLV-Mark3 or LVM3
GSLV Mk III - D1/GSAT19 Mission is scheduled to be launched on June 05, 2017 at 17:28 Hrs(IST) from SDSC SHAR, Sriharikota, Nellore , Andhra Pradesh, India.
The countdown is about to begin on This sunday for the launch of GSLV - Mark III on June 5, ISRO indicates that it is the first possible human-rated vehicle with its complex yet robust design features for future manned mission, technology and unique shape to check noise.
"The critical technology of GSLV Mk III to carry heavy payload capacity, the vehicle design with acoustic suppression system would facilitate future manned missions to space. But, we prefer not to talk about manned mission now when it is yet to be approved by the GOI ," ISRO chairman AS Kiran Kumar quoted.
The focus of this first developmental flight of GSLV-MK III (D1) set for launch on June 5 is to put a heavy weight communication satellites like GSAT-19 of 3.2 tons in geosynchronous transfer orbit (GTO),GSLV Mk III is actually capable of putting 4 ton class satellites into GTO and future machines will achieve that, he said.
This fat boy is equipped with a made in India cryogenic engine of an advanced version of 20 plus ton thrust. Previously, four consecutive GSLV launches with indigenous cryogenic engine of a different version were successful, he said.
The former space port of India , Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC) director K Sivan told that now this GSLV-MK III launch is a big fat vehicle launch with its design is capable to put four ton class heavy satellite in orbit. From the earlier cone shaped launch vehicle, here it is Ojive shaped and the strap-on boosters are slanted rather than the usual straight format, it is to lessen noise. It could help in future manned mission, he said.
The Liquid Propulsion Systems Centre (LPSC) director S Somnath also told that "GSLV-MK III is a possible human-rated launch vehicle by virtue of its design features including its simple module, its technology for lesser propulsion system, lesser accelerator levels, lesser dynamic pressure load and lesser noise or benign acoustic levels" Further, it has more redundancy which means that if an electronic part fails other part will take over the task to propel the vehicle forward, he said.
It may be noted that the term `human-rated' certifies a spacecraft, launch vehicle or airplane as worthy of transporting humans.
GSLV project director G Ayyappan also indicated that it is for the first time that a launch vehicle is designed with Ogive shaped curvature to able to control the air pressure and to check noise with its acoustic suppression system. Conceived in 2002 at a total project cost of Rs 2900 crore, the GSLV-MK III will be fitted with a fully indigenous cryogenic engine of 20 ton thrust with 28 ton propellant loading, LPSC scientists said.
This cryogenic engine has 2.5 times more thrust than the previous cryogenic engine with 12 ton thrust. Similarly, this launch will have 2.46 times more thrust with two solid motors and 2.1 times more thrust of liquid boosters with 116 tons of liquid propellants loaded as against the earlier 40 tons, VSSC scientists said.

The First Look And The Specifications Of The Nokia C1 Android Handset!
When was the last time when any of you used a Nokia handset? We know it’s been quite some time! But for those of you who have been thinking about where is ‘Nokia’… we have good news. According to recent reports, Nokia is returning to the smartphone market. Microsoft recently announced it’s offloading of Nokia’s old feature phone business to a Foxconn subsidiary and a Finnish company called HMD Global Oy.
It has been revealed by Nokia that HMD is also acquiring the rights to use the Nokia name on smartphones and tablets for the next ten years. This means, the day is not far when we will see Nokia branded smartphones and tablets run on Adnroid.
According to statement from HMD, it plans to invest $500 million over the next three years to develop and promote products. The money will supposedly come from investors and from profits from the newly-acquired feature phone business. Though it has been made clear that Nokia’s involvement in the new devices will be very limited, it will be a part of HMD’s board and will set mandatory brand requirements and performance related provisions
According to anticipation, the expected name of the Nokia’s forthcoming Android model would be Nokia C1. Below is the rumored specification. Please keep it in mind that the specifications are purely speculative.
Nokia is doing this to ensure that quality handsets are released because it is the goodwill of Nokia that will be at stake if the devices are inferior. FIH Mobile, the Foxconn subsidiary will be the manufacturer of the new HMD smartphones and tablets. The agreement includes HMD’s access to Nokia’s vast arsenal of mobile patents. As to when will we get to see the Nokia handsets and tablets and with what version of Android, that is still under wraps.

All about sharks, The strange and terrifying
world of prehistoric sharks.
One example of this can be found in the special way shark jaws work. Scientists believe that the first sharks with jaws that were not fused to their heads appeared about 200 million years ago. This gave them the ability to thrust their jaws forward and catch prey efficiently. Today, many sharks have this feature.
Do you know ??
Early sharks had smooth skin and couldn't thrust their jaw forward
When sharks first appeared, at least 420 million years ago, they were not quite like the sharks we know today. Like modern sharks, they had a skeleton made of cartilage. They had triangular fins, gills and pointed teeth. But they lacked a few key shark traits.
One of the most well-known early sharks, Cladoselache, lived 370 million years ago. Unlike today’s sharks, it could not thrust its upper jaw forward when attacking. Like other sharks of its time – and most animals – Cladoselache ’s jaw was entirely fused to its head. This restricted the size of the food it could suck in and eat. It was not until sharks evolved the ability to unhinge their upper jaw – sometime during the Jurassic period, 201 to 145 million years ago – that they started to take on larger prey, eventually growing to massive size.
Cladoselache had another odd early shark trait: smooth skin. Unlike modern sharks, which are covered in tooth-like scales called dermal denticles, Cladoselache was virtually naked. A shark’s denticles not only protect it from injury, they reduce drag in the water and strengthen the skin to provide firmer attachment for swimming muscles. But this did not seem to slow down Cladoselache; it was a high-speed predator with a keeled, crescent-shaped tail fin similar to today’s turbo-charged macho sharks.

A weird ancient shark looked like it had a hairbrush sticking out of its back.

A weird ancient shark looked like it had a hairbrush sticking out of its back.
But what were these for? Perhaps they were defensive, the brushy fin and cranial bristles looking like the jaws of a far larger predator. It seems more likely, though, that they played some role in courtship rituals. Females may have chosen males with the biggest dorsal brush, or perhaps males used these to push against one another in vigorous battles over mating rights.
Stethacanthus is also one of the earliest examples of a shark with dermal denticles – tooth like scales that cover the skin. These scales prevent injury, reduce drag in the water and strengthen the skin to provide firmer attachment for swimming muscles. Earlier sharks had smooth skin, but all modern sharks have denticles like Stethacanthus.
A SUPER-SIZED SAND TIGER?
Some palaeontologists cast doubt on the whole idea of comparing Megalodon to great whites. Megalodon evolved from an earlier giant shark called Otodus, which had teeth like a sand tiger. Could this mean that Megalodon might have looked more like a sand tiger shark on steroids? We’ll never know for sure.
NO LONGER LIVING
While it’s frighteningly fun to imagine that Megalodon might still be out there, scientists are positive that this monster shark is no longer around. The fossil record for Megalodon extends from 15.9 to 2.6 million years ago. Our ancient cousin, Homo habilis, coexisted with Megalodon but probably never laid eyes on it.
THE GREAT WHITE MODEL
It makes sense to use the great white as a model for what Megalodon might have looked like – their teeth are close to the same shape. Most scientists imagine Megalodon as a super-sized great white with a few subtle differences
It’s commonly accepted that Megalodon had proportionally larger pectoral fins than a great white. Its air plane-like fins helped support the weight of the shark’s enormous jaws and robust head
BODY SIZE
How massive was Megalodon? Scientists have been debating this for years. Early models placed its length at around 80 feet, but careful analysis of how tooth enamel height compares to body length in great whites (which scientists use as a model for Megalodon) brought this ancient nightmare’s size down to half that.
It was later discovered that this comparison only holds true for great whites up to 16 feet in length, after which their tooth enamel stops growing. If Megalodon teeth worked the same way, how large this massive shark got is truly anyone’s guess. Scientists now conservatively estimate that it grew to 52 feet, with a possible maximum length of 59 feet, and that it weighed 40 tons or more
Many of us have seen Megalodon jaws hanging in museums, but these are replicas; their fossilized jaws have never been found. Scientists reconstruct what this ancient shark’s jaws might have looked like by using great white jaws as a model. The conclusion: Megalodon had absolutely massive, over-sized jaws that spanned at least 6 to 7 feet across. It’s calculated that its jaws packed a 24,400 to 41,000-pound bite force – the strongest of any animal ever recorded
Hundreds of Megalodon tooth fossils have been found, dating all the way back to the 1600s. Most are 3 to 5 inches, with some reaching over 7 inches in length. Megalodon teeth look like huge,puffed up, blackish triangles with a bulbous root. They have a rough exterior that gets smoother at the tooth’s finely serrated edges (there are about 50 serrations per inch along the edges).
Some scientists think that Megalodon may have had a broader, more domed head than a great white. Its snout may have been shorter and more blunted, and it’s possible that its eyes were set a bit lower on its head compared to the white shark
ANYONE'S GUESS
In 1996, scientists Michael Gottfried, Leonard Compagno, and S. Curtis Bowman discovered that tooth enamel height actually stops growing when a white shark reaches about 16 feet, so it’s not an effective model for the largest individuals. If Megalodon teeth worked the same way, how large this massive shark got is truly anyone’s guess
CALCULATING SIZE
Ichthyologist John E. Randall discovered a correlation between the great white’s largest upper teeth and the height of its jaws, as well as the enamel height of its teeth and its body length. Using these ratios as a model, Megalodon teeth can reveal the size of the shark’s massive jaws and the length of its body
