6. The first time I heard about Ironman race was when @milindrunning did it in 2015 at the age of 50 in 15 hrs 19 min in Switzerland. I had decided that I, too, will do it by the time I turn 25. Of course, career took precedence and later I forgot about this wish.

The World's Most Expensive Game of Tag Just Got Interesting The US Space Force's live orbital intercept-and-evasion exercise is underway at ~500 km altitude, and last week both players made moves. Event detected by COMSPOC SSA Suite using LEOLABS radar data. For context: JACKAL-004 is the chaser. VICTUS HAZE PUMA is the evader. Both are commercially-built spacecraft under contract to Space Systems Command, executing real rendezvous and evasion maneuvers with real hardware and real ฮ”V. PUMA was launched on a Rocket Lab Electron in June, reportedly within 16 hours of the Space Force's go order. By early July, JACKAL had autonomously found, closed on, and imaged it in ~61 hours with no ground cueing. SSC called it the first commercial orbital intercept in history. Since then, the mission has been escalating, with JACKAL reportedly closing to within ~10 km of an actively maneuvering PUMA in August. Here's the update. Before Aug 21, the two spacecraft were drifting apart, range growing, JACKAL falling behind. Then JACKAL executed two burns on Aug 21 and 22, reversed the drift entirely, and spent the next three days methodically closing the gap, ~400 km down to ~180 km. Textbook intercept geometry. Patient, deliberate, and frankly a little ominous if you're PUMA. Then PUMA answered. Our tracking data shows it executed burns overnight, late Aug 24 into early Aug 25 UTC time, and broke JACKAL's closure cold. The range stopped shrinking, reversed, now sitting around 210 km and opening. This kind of RPO activity is not entirely new. We saw a similar cat-and-mouse dynamic last year with COSMOS 2581, 2582, and 2583, which conducted sub-10-meter proximity operations. What makes this notable is that two U.S. satellites are now demonstrating comparable capabilities, potentially amplifying a broader shift in the space domain. Jonathan McDowell LeoLabs Integrity ISR

๐ŸšจDAY 5: A 2002 DREAM. 1.3 KM IN 12 YEARS. THEN MODI DELIVERED. ๐Ÿ”๏ธATAL TUNNELโ€”ROHTANG Foundation stone for approach road to STRATEGIC Tunnel was laid by PM Vajpayee: 26 May 2002 Then came CONgress & with it yrs of neglect. ๐ŸšจBy 2013โ€“14: โŒ ONLY 1.3 km of tunnel constructed. That's it. After more than a decade, less than 1.5 km! At that pace, experts estimated the tunnel would be completed only around 2040. But then came 2014 & it brought .Narendra Modi Ji as PM. ๐Ÿš€Construction speed jumped from roughly 300 metres/year โ†’ 1400 metres/year. ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณAtal Tunnel inaugurated: 3 Oct 2020 In just 6 years AFTER 2014, Bharat completed what had been crawling along for more than a decade. And the cost? ๐Ÿ’ฐ2005 estimate: ~โ‚น950 Crore ๐Ÿ’ธ Final cost: >โ‚น3,200 Crore A massive price paid for years of delay. But now CONgress will feel offended if I say "Thank You, Nehru ji" just like it says for even a child born next door. Today, the 9.02-km Atal Tunnel provides all-weather connectivity between Manali and Lahaul-Spiti, cuts the Manaliโ€“Leh road distance by 46 km and travel time by around 4โ€“5 hours. 2000: Project sanctioned 2002: Foundation stone 2013โ€“14: ONLY 1.3 km built 2040: Projected completion at that pace 2014: Modi Sarkar accelerates the project 2020: ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ ATAL TUNNEL DELIVERED This is what happens when a government moves from: โ€œFile mein projectโ€ ๐Ÿ“ to โ€œGround par project.โ€ ๐Ÿšง CONgress-era neglect cost Bharat's years AND thousands of crores ADDED WITH Vulnerability to National Security. Thank you, Nehru ji for this too. Modi Sarkar finished it in 6 years. ๐Ÿ”ฅ DAY 5 DONE. New episode launching tomorrow๐Ÿ”ฅ Till then....Keep hammering IMPOTENT CONgress over its INCOMPETENCE!

๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ทReal Reason Pentagon Is Losing Sleep: Iranian Top Drones Tehran has developed a diverse fleet of strike drones designed for different combat roles. In addition to the famous Shaheds, here are the top-notch Iranian drones that keep Pentagon planners awake at night: 1๏ธโƒฃ Mohajer-6 โ€” The tactical backbone of Iran's proxy forces. This drone is a battlefield multiplier, equipped with electro-optical sensors and capable of firing the Almas anti-tank missile with pinpoint accuracy. It has been exported and used in conflicts from the Caucasus to the Red Sea, systematically destroying armored vehicles and fortifications; 2๏ธโƒฃ Mohajer-10 โ€” The next evolution in strike capability. It boasts triple the range (2,000 km) and double the flight endurance (24 hours) of its predecessor. Most critically, it can carry a 300 kg payload, including up to six smart bombs or cruise missiles, allowing it to saturate small sections of an air defense network; 3๏ธโƒฃ Kaman-22 โ€” Iran's "wide-body" combat drone. With a 3,000 km range, it can reach the furthest US outposts. It carries a 300 kg payload of air-to-ground missiles and glide bombs, designed to hit command centers and radar sites deep behind enemy lines, far from the front; 4๏ธโƒฃ Karrar โ€” The jet-powered speed demon. Unlike propeller drones, the Karrar races to its target at high subsonic speeds. It can be configured as a swarm leader or as a "mini-cruise missile" itself, carrying a 225 kg warhead to strike time-sensitive targets before defenses can react; 5๏ธโƒฃ Fotros โ€” The heavy hitter. With a 2,000 km range and a 30-hour flight time, it carries up to six missiles. Its large airframe allows for powerful, advanced communication relays, meaning it can guide other drones or missiles to their targets while staying outside the immediate kill zone; 6๏ธโƒฃ Arash-2 โ€” A loitering munition specifically designed to hunt radars. Once a US Patriot or THAAD battery turns on its radar, the Arash-2, with a range exceeding 1,000 km, can home in on that emission and destroy the system, effectively blinding the base's air defense; 7๏ธโƒฃ Hadid-110 (Dalaho) โ€” A jet-powered stealth loitering munition fresh from real combat. It hits 510 km/h with a radar cross-section below 0.02 square meters, evading F-15E and E-3C detection. With a 350 km range and a 30 kg warhead, it precisely targets Persian Gulf infrastructure, slipping past Western defenses silently; 8๏ธโƒฃ Meraj-521 โ€” A man-portable loitering munition that fits in a backpack. With a 5 km range and interchangeable 500g-1kg warheads, it silently strikes bunkers and armor via live video feed. Launched in swarms from ground or air, it dismantles fortified positions without exposing a single soldier to return fire.

After the landmark success of the #SuryaDevbhoomiChallenge2025, the #IndianArmy announces the 2nd Edition of this iconic ultra endurance event from 17โ€“19 April 2026. Set across the majestic Garhwal Himalayas, the #SuryaDevbhoomiChallenge2.0 is a gruelling 112.5 km high altitude road and trail run that retraces ancient #CharDham pilgrimage routes. Thin air, punishing climbs and unforgiving terrain will push athletes to the edge, testing physical stamina, mental strength and sheer willpower. More than a race, this challenge is a tribute to the timeless heritage of Devbhoomi, the resilience of the human spirit and the sacred bond between people and mountains. It also reinforces the Indian Armyโ€™s commitment to promoting adventure tourism, generating local employment and contributing to sustainable regional economic growth. A journey where tradition meets toughness and endurance finds its true meaning in the mountains. #SuryaCommand #WhereEnduranceMeetsHeritage #SDC2026 #GarhwalHimalayas #EnduranceRedefined #AdventureTourism #LocalEconomy #NationBuilding ADG PI - INDIAN ARMY PRO Defence Lucknow PRO Defence Prayagraj PIB India HQ IDS PRO (Defence) Dehradun Uttar Bharat @UttarakhandTourism @RuralDevIndia
