In the preparation of expeditions to Mars, a little known lake Lonar in Buldana district of Maharashtra may have a part to play.
The nearly circular Lonar lake’s distinction is that not only it is believed to have been created by the impact of a meteorite from outer space, “it is the only impact crater found in the world on basaltic terrain of hard rock,similar to that in Mars,”, according to Pra

India's journey to the Moon will not be a mere repetition of some of the previous international flights, NASA's Apollo and European Space Agency's Smart-I for instance.
Their objectives well-defined, the experts zoomed in on two areas that the lu

LOS ANGELES: The sun's winds are less blustery than they used to be, Nasa said on Tuesday, revealing data from a solar probe that promises new insights about the sun but poses few if any consequences for humans - unless you're an astronaut.
The data show the solar wind, a steady stream of charged sub-atomic particles emitted by the sun and blowing at 1.6 million kph, has dwindled to its lowest
