Happy November

One of the most beautiful months of the year is the month of November-the weather is pleasant and delightful -making

November is a tangy mix of cold and bright, the kind of weather that would make you even a Poet .

The clocks have gone back, the evenings are getting darker earlier and coat weather has most definitely arrived. 

My garden can happily handle a few weeks of overcast skies and drizzle.

Weather is absoultely perfect we can have a great chill out times . 

Everything seems beautiful about November - the cold weather , the Blooming of colourful flowers , the festival of lights , Fresh Plans for  christmas and New year .

we can have more relaxing times ! 

It rains out , we are in a lockdown , what excuses can we have more than this !

It's  time for being you , Can Relax ourself with soothing songs , Can wrap yourself with a warm blanket and  watch a feel good movies .

you can explore yourself by writing out your heart . The thing is you can do what you wish to do .

November is about being hopeful of a new beginning. Lockdown is about to end , we are going to get back  our  normal mode it's gonna be a new beginning .So just use this time as you wish We can rest, rejuvenate ourselves, and learn to be grateful for the beauty in all kinds of weather.

Happy November Folks !

How Did the Solar System Form?

In Today's post lets see how the  Solar system has formed ? 

The solar system is a pretty busy place. It got all kinds of planets, moons, asteroids, and comets zipping around our Sun.

But how did this busy stellar neighborhood come to be?

Our story starts about 4.6 billion years ago, with a wispy cloud of stellar dust.

This cloud was part of a bigger cloud called a nebula.

At some point, the cloud collapsed—possibly because the shockwave of a nearby exploding star caused it to compress.

When it collapsed, it fell in on itself, creating a disk of material surrounding it.

Finally the pressure caused by the material was so great that hydrogen atoms began to fuse into helium, releasing a tremendous amount of energy. Our Sun was born!

Even though the Sun gobbled up more than 99% of all the stuff in this disk, there was still some material left over.

" Bits of this material clumped together because of gravity. Big objects collided with bigger objects, forming still bigger objects. Finally some of these objects became big enough to be spheres—these spheres became planets and dwarf planets".

Rocky planets, like Earth, formed near the Sun, because icy and gaseous material couldn’t survive close to all that heat.

And like that, the solar system as we know it today was formed. 

This is the Story of our Solar System .

Where Do Old Satellites Go When They Die ?

We know satellites are used for research purpose and used by television companies for our own entertainment. 

Like every other machine, satellites do not last forever , eventually all satellites grow old, wear out, and die, just like old washing machines and vacuum cleaners . But what happens to them then ?

Two things can happen to old satellites:

depending on how high the satellite is. For the closer satellites, engineers will use its last bit of fuel to slow it down. That way, it will fall out of orbit and burn up in the atmosphere.

The second choice is to send the satellite even farther away from Earth. It can take a lot of fuel for a satellite to slow down enough to fall back into the atmosphere. That is especially true if a satellite is in a very high orbit. 

These objects might not entirely burn up before reaching the ground. There is a solution—spacecraft operators can plan for the final destination of their old satellites to make sure that any debris falls into a remote area. 

This place even has a nickname—the Spacecraft Cemetery! It’s in the Pacific Ocean and is pretty much the farthest place from any human civilization you can find.

“Graveyard orbits”

What about those higher satellites we blast farther away? Those we send into a “graveyard orbit.” This is an orbit almost 200 miles farther away from Earth than the farthest active satellites. And it’s a whopping 22,400 miles above Earth!

some of these satellites will remain in orbit for a very, very long time. Perhaps someday in the future, humans may need to send “space garbage trucks” to clean these up. But for now, at least, they will be out of the way.

Happiness is ...

There are so many things around us to be grateful for !

Greeting the New day with a stretch and a yawn ☀︎

( waking up by the time you wish is a kind of blessing )

A first cup of morning coffee ☕︎

with a perfect sweet and bitterness !

scribbling on a clean black board シ︎.

(Remember , In those inspection days we use to clean the whole class and black board with a wet cloth , would love to write on the shiny clean black board with a soft white chalk ).

Happiness is 

Riding cycle in the rain on a clean road ☔︎

Running in hand to hand for no reason😀

Watching sunshine through the leaves✨

Watching stars from the quiet , dark spot 🌠

Finding the missing glasses 🤓

The sound of wind chimes ✨

writing our initials on the beach sand !

When the theatre lights goes down ! 

A chill soda after a heavy lunch !

That unexplainable happiness when our Prayers get answered ! 💛

If you've had a rough day and nothing seems to be going  right , Take a moment to think of the little things that are going right .✨💕

 

Why the Space is cold ?

Have you ever thought why the space remains cold though the Sun is so hot at it's Centre ?

It Sound's so mystical !

But the fact is so simple , Since there is no matter to absorb heat, the temperature of the objects in the space will remain the same for a long time.

Hot objects stay hot and cold things stay cold.

But, when the sun’s radiations enter the earth’s atmosphere, there is a lot of matter to energize. Hence, we feel the radiation of the sun as heat.

Even when a rock is heated above 100°C by the sun’s radiation, the space around it will not absorb any temperature because of the same reason. "When there is no matter, temperature transfer does not take place" That's the thing !

Hence, even when the sun is hot, space remains cold as ice !

And Here is a one more intersting thing about  us and Stars . 

We are the way to know the universe , Atoms in our body travelled long way from a Supernova explosion . So literally we are a Star Stuff !

We are not simply human beings evolved from nature. Nature built up because of the collision of stars .

 we are extremely lucky to experience this planet of paradise. Every breath we take reminds us that the universe's consciousness is living inside of us. ✨

Stray Star : A Cosmic Glow ✨

Something New and Interesting !

STRAY STAR : A Stray star  is a massive one  and does not bound to any galaxies in the Universe , also it does not possess the properties of a Star.

Stray stars are also called as intergalactic stars or rogue stars.

These Rogue Stars  are "homeless". They were thrown out of their home galaxies because of some particular significant events .

Stray Stars are  Scattered in Space. These stars have been stripped from their parent galaxies by gravitational interactions ! 

These Stars looks like a  Glow of light in the Sky ."The CIBER rocket experiment detected this  infrared background glow in the sky" Large number of stars flung out as galaxies.

And This is so common in our universe , Our own Milky Way galaxy will collide with the Andromeda galaxy in about 5 billion years, tossing stars out into space. Though the process is gravitationally chaotic, the stars are far away from each other and will not directly collide.

It is commonly believed that Stray stars may primarily have originated from extremely small galaxies, since it is easier for stars to escape a smaller galaxy's gravitational pull, than that of a large galaxy.

The total light produced by these stray stars is about equal to the background light we get from counting up individual galaxies !

The first Stray stars were discovered in the Virgo cluster of galaxies.

As of 2015, approximately 675 Stray stars have been discovered at the edge of the Milky Way, towards the Andromeda Galaxy.

This Stray stars may explain strange cosmic glow .

A recent image from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope of a cluster of galaxies shows the same type of star glow as seen by CIBER only at smaller scales.

Bliss of Solitude ✨

S𝒐𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒖𝒅𝒆 !  Such a beautiful one , It is the foundation of self love !

When we spend time in solitude we will start learning about ourselves and we start hearing intuition over fear . There will be no longer confusions as you start  experiencing a deeper clarity in every aspect of your life .

'Solitude’ is the best stage of life. mostly people connects it with loneliness but it not about being lonely but it is about being happy in the company of our self. In the silent hours of night and  in the fresh  early mornings it feels delightful to enjoy your company !

Ode on Solitude

- Alexander Pope

Happy the man, whose wish and care

A few paternal acres bound,

In health of body, peace of mind,

Quiet by day,

Sound sleep by night; 

In this poem Pope says that the solitude is the blessed thing of life.

when I am alone, I play serene, soothing music. I love to fill the air with a wonderful fragrance. I love to create an atmosphere for myself of beauty that fills all the senses. I will fill vases with fragrant flowers, and place them in each room.

When you are on your own , make each moment important, make it an event for yourself. You can easily do this, for example by setting for yourself a beautiful place for your lunch. Make it a memorable, thoughtful event.

Embrace your moments of solitude. Find the bliss in these times. Make every moment a count. Every day and every opportunity is precious. Blissful solitude is a gift we give to ourselves.

 You can't really love others if you don't love yourself first , you can't really understand others when you don't even understand yourself ! 

Celebrate and Embrace Solitude !
