In space exploration news India is launching moon mission on 22nd october, 2008 .Last year we posted this event in over Race for harvesting cash crop from the moon post According to previous media reports space scientists are preparing India's maiden moon odyssey, the government today approved another lunar mission which entails landing a rover on the earth's natural satellite. The Union Cabinet, at a meeting chaired by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, gave the nod to Chandrayaan-II which is to be an Indo-Russian mission with a projected launch in 2011-12. Scientists are planning to land a rover on the moon for carrying out chemical analysis of the lunar surface and explore other resources there. "In situ chemical analysis and resource exploration is the main objective of Chandrayaan-II," a scientist associated with the mission said. India had begun initial technical discussions on Chandrayaan-II which is expected to be a much shorter mission than Chandrayaan-I scheduled for launch later this year. An agreement for Chandrayaan-II was signed by Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and Roskosmos, the Russian Federal Space Agency during Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's visit to Moscow in November last year. Mineral samples from the moon contained Helium 3, a variant of the gas used in refrigerators, and Chandrayaan-II will also look out for the gas which experts believe may offer a solution to energy shortages. The current Chinese moon mission is also exploring this prized source of energy. Less

In early fall, you’ll see male ducks - like these Mallards - looking very different from when they flew north last spring. The beautiful drakes seem to be gone. But the males are here - sort of “under cover.” In mid-summer, they molted into nondescript, dull plumage known as eclipse plumage. But the eclipse is waning. By November, most of the drakes’ vivid colors will return, just in time for the flash of the courtship season. Want to receive stunning photos each week of the birds we’ll feature in the week ahead?
