A rocket's structure has to be strong enough to survive launch and light enough to reach orbit. This episode is about how the team turned to carbon composites and cork to meet both demands, and what it took to master the manufacturing from the ground up. #JourneyToOrbit #Vikram1

Vikram-1 had to be big enough to carry the fuel to reach orbit, and smart enough to shed that weight along the way. Nearly as tall as a 7-storey building, getting something that size to orbit demands precision engineering at every stage of the climb, as much as it demands raw power. This episode is about how the team broke out of that loop and the systems that make it possible. #JourneyToOrbit #Vikram1

This episode is about the onboard intelligence that flies Vikram-1 to orbit: the GNC algorithms that follow a planned path and correct for deviation in real time, the avionics network of sensors and modules that act as the rocket's nervous system, and Ramanujan, the mission computer at the center of it all. #JourneyToOrbit #Vikram1

Vikram-S proved that a private Indian company could build and launch a rocket to space. But suborbital and orbital are different problems entirely. Getting to orbit means building a rocket that can carry satellites and place them precisely around Earth, and that demands a level of engineering complexity that required the team to think anew about every system. #JourneyToOrbit #Vikram1

Vikram-1 has been modeled, simulated, tested, and qualified. And some questions can only be answered in flight. This episiode follows the team to Sriharikota, where the launch campaign is close to completion and with each passing day, Vikram-1 moves one step closer to flight. #JourneyToOrbit #Vikram1 #SkyrootAerospace

Everyone on the planet should know this. The “unprecedented harms” of Pfizer and Moderna Vaccines needs to be exposed. It needs to be brought to the light and people need to know the truth. Enough is enough is enough. Dr Aseem Malhotra talks to Joe Rogan.

$RKLB Neutron will be the largest carbon fiber structure to ever fly once it's completed. Some critics say it's not realistic because it would be the first carbon fiber structure of that size to fly, but I'd argue Rocket Lab is pretty good at firsts: "We were the first to 3D print a rocket engine and put it into orbit. We were the first to do an all carbon composite rocket and put it into orbit. We were the first to do all fiber optically networked avionics suite on a launch vehicle and put it into orbit." — Sir Peter Beck, Rocket Lab CEO

🚨BREAKING: Markwayne Mullin just BOMBED Majorie "Traitor" Greene "Once you run out on the field, a play call is called. Everybody is on the same team—and after having enough conversations with somebody. You've got to cut them from the team." "As a leader of business. You've got to HIRE right. And you have to FIRE right. We have someone who is ruining the team or the organization's direction. You have to be strong enough to FIRE THEM." "That's what President Trump has done here." "President Trump took a bold decision, and he did exactly what he needed to do."

Once a solid rocket motor ignites, there is no off switch. It burns to completion. That is what makes solid propulsion one of the most reliable technologies in rocketry. This episode of Journey To Orbit goes inside the solid propulsion systems that power Vikram-1 through Earth's atmosphere. #JourneyToOrbit #Vikram1

little sneak peek of what I've been quietly cooking on the side finally got the motivation to build my personal website from the ground up and getting a good gut feeling about it still a lot to do and tweak until I can be proud enough of it to deploy it 🙂

I do not know how we got here to a place where this is even something we need to speak about, but we are here and we have to be real! Enough is enough ! Enough with the lies ! Enough with the trying to create something that doesn’t need to exist! men are men women are women THATS IT.

Legend says, “Kashi is on Shiva’s Trishul, not on the ground.” In my experience, the energy structure of Kashi is about 33 feet above the ground, and it could extend up to 7200 feet. This is why they called Kashi a "Tower of Light" – it gave you access to what is beyond. The idea was to create a mechanism where every individual can reach the highest human possibility if they strive. #SadhguruWisdom
