Ans. You must be aware of the fact that the jet engines of any commercial airplane are capable of sucking an adult if he/she passes before it. The human body cuts into pieces and a red soup like thing drains out from the back of the jet engine. To avoid this type of accident, and to inform the workers whether the engine is ON or not, a curl is drawn in the front which when rotates seems like a spinning whirlpool. It also helps in keeping out birds.

2.Why lights in the passenger cabin dims during take-off and landing?


Ans. If you have ever been in an airplane, you must have observed that the lights inside the passenger cabin are dimmed during take-off and landing, at night. This is because of the fact that 80% of air accidents occur during take-off and landing. And our eyes might take about 10 mins to adapt in the darkness after a sudden light-off condition. To aid the chances of survival of the passengers in case of emergency/accident, the lights are dimmed to let the eyes adapt to darkness beforehand. Even a few seconds can decide your survival in emergency.

3.Why the fuel is stored inside the wings of the airplane?


Ans. A passenger jet is a way heavier than a car and fuel is also a major part of it. If most of its weight is concentrated in the fuselage(body) of the plane, the wings might bend or break. To avoid the bending of the wing, the weight is distributed all over the plane by storing the fuel inside the wings.

4.Why foods in airplane taste bad?


Ans. If you have ever been in a plane, the most annoying experience you probably had was the food. Trust me it's not the fault of the airline but the environment inside the plane makes the food taste so bad. The dry recycled air inside the cabin makes the food taste dull and lack smell. The sweet flavor tastes less sweet and salty taste increases. These all make your food bland.

5.Why do planes leave trails in the sky?


And. You must have noticed that the air you exhale in winter season seems like a smoke. And we used to wonder how it happened during childhood. Fuels also emit a considerable amount of water vapor when these burn. The same condition arises when the hot gases + water vapor mix with the very cold atmosphere at high altitude, leaving white smoky trails

Things You must know about Chandrayan-2

India’s second mission to the moon is more advanced than the first. The space shuttle will explore the southern part of the moon making India the first country to do so. It will carry 13 satellites with total weight of about 3.8 tones, Sivan said. Chandrayaan-2 is India’s second lunar mission with three modules 1.The Orbiter 2.Vikram, The lander and 3.Pragyan, the Rover The Orbiter and Lander will be mechanically stacked together as an integrated module inside the launch vehicle, GSLV Mk-III aka "The Bahubali". This mission is being refered as the most complex one ever undertaken by ISRO. Pragyan* will make a soft landing on lunar surface unlike it predecessor the Chandrayan-1. The mission cost of Chandrayaan-2 with regard to the satellite was Rs 603 crore. The cost of GSLV MK III is Rs 375 crore. this is India’s first interplanetary mission to be steered by two women, M Vanitha as Project Director and Ritu Karidhal as Mission Director. The scientists of

What if you fall into a black hole?

After getting bored from you lectures, assignments and exams, it's a good idea to go out for a spacewalk. Isn't it?😄 Oh wait! Jumping into a black hole seems to be a better one. Have you ever imagined the situation into a black hole ? What would happen if you enter into it? The reality might be weirder than your expectations. Well, a black hole is that cosmic mystery which may tear apart all the physical laws into pieces. So, you might have to think out of the box. Before entering into the black hole you have to pass the accretion disk which is too hot to be imagined, spitting out Hawking Radiation,  and finally the event horizon. Suppose, anyhow, you have succeeded in overcoming these nightmares, what's next?  There are the opinions of a few intellectuals about the further possibilities: 1. If you were to take a jump into a black hole, your body would most closely resemble "the toothpaste being pushed out of a tube," said Charles Liu, an astrophysi

GOD! or SCIENCE?

One can question the existence of the God, the almighty, but can't question the belief of the people. The most controversial topic of current time and the never ending debate between religion and science- THE EXISTENCE OF THE GOD. We all must have heard one or more of the words: God, Allah, Bhagwan, the Almighty, Ishwar etc since the day we stepped into this massive universe. These all point to the same power, the supreme one. The power that drives the universe, that drives you and me and every other creature. The force that exists within each and every elementary particle. Some people having keen interest to question all the things around them, known as Scientist, believe what they see and what get through various complex equations. And 'the existence of the God' too didn't remain untouched. Perhaps, there is nothing wrong in finding what's hidden inside the nature's womb. It just get us closer to the mighty universe. That's what a scientist alw
