Chandrayaan-2 was the second moon exploration mission of
Indian Space Research Organization after Chandrayaan-1.
It had three major parts-Lunar orbiter, the
Vikram lander and Pragyan lunar rover and all parts were
designed and developed in India.

Its main objective was to map the location and abundance of
water present on the moon.

The Chandrayaan-2 was launched to the moon on 22 July 2019 at
2:43 PM from Satish Dhawan Space center by GSLV MK 111 rocket.
And it entered the moon orbit on 20 August 2019. Vikram and the
rover were planned to land down at the south polar region of
moon at an altitude of 70 degrees at 1:50 on 7 September 2019.

Everything was going right as planned by the ISRO scientists
but at 1:52 AP, the Vikram lander deviated from its trajectory.
And finally at an altitude of 2.1 KM before landing, ISRO lost
contact with Vikram lander.

After that ISRO Scientist confessed that they had lost contact
with Vikram lander and data is being analyzed.

Did losing contact with Vikram lander ended up Chandrayaan-2
mission completely, No, it's wrong. Chandrayaan-2 orbiter is still
successfully circling the moon and its lifetime was 12 months
But now ISRO extended its life up to seven years. And ISRO 
can still access the data/information on moon like climate, 
presence of water and so on.

But recently Orbitor High-Resolution Camera clicked and sent
some images of Vikram lander to ISRO and now they are trying
to build contact with Vikram lander.

Self study vs coaching institute study | Why self study is better than coaching institute study

Especially in India around 95% students   prefer to join tuition/coaching institute after they   took admission in school   and such type of students do all their work(such as solving any problem ,doing homework, preparing for any entrance exam and so on…)   through their tuition/coaching institutes where as only 5% student prefer self study and they do all their work by themselves… Image by Pete Linforth from Pixabay Tuition/coaching institute students learn all their problem solving skills through teacher/coaching institute. And they have habit of solving only those problems which they have already been taught in their   tuition/Coaching institute. They even don’t read books, Internet /Google to find the solution of their problem as they are totally dependent on their tuition/coaching   teachers. Although they score 95% in exam but they are less creative and their self problem solving skills is very low. Such students are lazy and th...

What is Supervised Machine Learning? || S upervised Machine Learning techniques and algorithms. supervised machine learning supervised machine learning is one of the method of machine learning which uses various machine learning mathematical techniques to train the machine using data which is already labeled. someone can build supervised machine learning algorithms from labeled training data to predict the same. Some of the examples of supervised machine learning systems are self-driving cars, expert systems, facial recognition programs, chatbots and robots which support  future judgments. following are the mathematical techniques that are used in building supervised  machine-learning algorithms. 1) Linear Regression 2) Logistic Regression 3) Decision Tree 4) Random forest 5) support vector machine Linear Regression:  The linear regression technique uses a linear mathematical formula/technique to predict the dependent variable or ...

Who and Why invented Automated Teller Machine | the secret behind ATM invention

image by Nenyedi [ CC BY-SA 3.0 ], via Wikimedia Commons It was a friday afternoon,extremely cool day in 1968 and Donald Wetzel-USA businessman needed money to travel or go on a business trip. And then-40-year old businessman Donald Wetzel went bank to withdraw money and he saw that hundreds of people are already in line for withdrawing money from bank. It was already evening 5 o'clock as he is already late. Then after sometime thought of automated machine came in his mind that could even work faster than human and even that could work 24*7 without taking rest. And then he said to himself " bank need not to be open , customers could get money 24 hours , seven days a week." And then he yield the idea of Automated Teller Machine, today known as ATM. It took him 11 months for the creation of ATM machine and the first ATM machine was launch on september 2, 1969 at chemical bank branch in Rockville center.
