Artificial satellites are sophisticated and intelligent machines. They carry complex instruments and operate fairly autonomously. They give us exhaustive information about our home planet and show us things which we could never imagine witnessing through in-situ observations on Earth. A few of them are out exploring our neighbours, some are capable of housing humans and… Continue reading Space Talk – Afterlife
So I am back after another unwanted and unexplained hiatus. Just to recap a bit, in December 2018 my husband, Govind left for Germany to join his new job in Hamburg. As I explained in the previous posts, a long distance relationship was not something new for us but after 3 years of living together,… Continue reading Los Geht’s 03: Reunification and Job Search

At ISRO, I worked for 8 years on design, simulation, analysis and testing of Attitude and Orbit Control System (AOCS) for… Continue reading Life in my new orbit!

Well, it's not that I suddenly realised that I should know how to react in emergency life support situations. This… Continue reading My first ever first aid course!

This year has been a rollercoaster. It's given me happy highs and gloomy lows, but it's been a special one for… Continue reading It’s December already?
