FIRST PHOTOS: BrahMos Underwater Variant Maiden Launch:
Big day! The sub-surface launched BrahMos supersonic cruise missile was testfired today for the first time. Here's the official statement from the team:
VISAKHAPATNAM: The submarine-launched version of BRAHMOS supersonic cruise missile was successfully test-fired at 1410 hrs on Wednesday(20th March 2013) from a submerged platform in Bay of Bengal off the coast of Visakhapatnam.
VISAKHAPATNAM: The submarine-launched version of BRAHMOS supersonic cruise missile was successfully test-fired at 1410 hrs on Wednesday(20th March 2013) from a submerged platform in Bay of Bengal off the coast of Visakhapatnam.
Creating history, the missile took off vertically from the submerged platform for its full range of 290 kms. Following a pre-defined trajectory, the missile emerged from underwater, took a turn towards the designated target meeting all mission objectives. All the telemetry and tracking stations, including Indian naval ships positioned throughout the flight path, confirmed the pin-point accuracy of the mission.
This is the first time that any supersonic cruise missile is launched vertically from a submerged platform. BRAHMOS vertically installed in a modular launcher in the pressure hall of the submarine will increase the ‘offensive power’ of the vessel without compromising on its ‘defensive power’ as the torpedo tubes can be fully utilised for defence. This new variant of the supersonic cruise missile will add more fire power to the Navy’s underwater weapon delivery capabilities.
When contacted by Journalists, Dr. Pillai, CEO & MD BrahMos said that “BRAHMOS missile is fully ready for fitment in P75 (I) of Indian Navy in vertical launch configuration which will make the platform one of the most powerful weapon platform in the World.”

[Pic of the Day] P-3B Starts the Day
P-3B Starts the Day: On March 21, 2013, the P-3B waits outside the hangar at Thule Air Base with the Greenland Ice sheet in the background. IceBridge, a six-year NASA mission, is the largest airborne survey of Earth's polar ice ever flown. It will yield an unprecedented three-dimensional view of Arctic and Antarctic ice sheets, ice shelves and sea ice. These flights will provide a yearly, multi-instrument look at the behavior of the rapidly changing features of the Greenland and Antarctic ice. Data collected during IceBridge will help scientists bridge the gap in polar observations between NASA's Ice, Cloud and Land Elevation Satellite (ICESat) -- in orbit since 2003 -- and ICESat-2, planned for early 2016. ICESat stopped collecting science data in 2009, making IceBridge critical for ensuring a continuous series of observations. IceBridge will use airborne instruments to map Arctic and Antarctic areas once a year. IceBridge flights are conducted in March-May over Greenland and in October-November over Antarctica. Other smaller airborne surveys around the world are also part of the IceBridge campaign. Image Credit: NASA/Goddard/Michael Studinger

Welcome to my e-World.
Welcome to my e-world. Pleasure to have you here.
And that's; the most ambiguous character of this phenomenon called LIFE.
Life indeed would be difficult, if there were no difficulties. Its full of experiments, the more experiments; you make the better. It's OK, bunk a few classes, goof up a few interviews, take leave from work, fall in love. We are people, not programmed devices...
I'm Brijesh (from आमची Mumbai, India) and this is one way of putting my creativity on the web.
I understand and see 'Life' as a complex micro-organism. The more you try to dwell deep into its structural intricacies, you find it has changed its DNA in total.
Someone rightly said that "Life is not about how you survive the storm, but how you dance in the Rain". Life throws out challenges in some way or the other. We fall, we struggle, betrayal, treachery, infedielity, can worn us out. But, it also show us way's to move, to fight, to suceed, to truimph and to trust - in ourselves. It forces us to look within ourselves to search our identity. It challenges us to believe what we are born to be.
