we lost Chandrayaan-1!! India’s spacecraft
August 30th, 2009
Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) gave a statement about this issue yesterday which revealed the news about the lost contact of the Chandrayaan 1. As per the news the the ISRO lost the radio contact from Chandrayaan 1 due to some malfunctioning of the spacecraft.
PTI quoted Chandrayaan-1 mission director M Annadurai as saying that the mission “is definitely over.” India’s first sojourn to its closest celestial neighbor, located about 4-lakh km away, was supposed to last for two years but has apparently ended in less than half that time. ISRO insists that technically the truncated mission has been a complete success and that it has met “most of the scientific objectives.”
Detlef Koshcny, European Space Agency’s project scientist for Chandrayaan-1, said that the instrument was not able to get the images of X-ray flares from the sun because solar activity was very low. The spacecraft would have to be in orbit for much longer than it has for the X-ray camera’s capture mission objectives to have met ..That was sad ..
ISRO also admitted that a vital instrument in the spacecraft has failed last month and the ‘ star’ sensor also failed few weeks back which showed the symptoms of end of the spacecraft.
One of the Main objectives of this lunar mission is to identify deposits of mineral helium-3 which is Believed to be abundant on the moon, the non-radioactive helium-3 is regarded as having the potential to power future nuclear fusion reactors for more than hundred years.

Calls rates are as cheap as Rs 1 per minute via Skype to other mobile phones overseas. but, making STD calls through Skype phone to other mobiles are not feasible, as its costs very high.
skype phone ISD
This phone is really a major break through in reducing the ISD bills specially for those studying abroad and wanna speak with their parents and friends.
The voice clarity is much better when compared to other services ..but the problem with this is that it gets disconnected when you receive a GSM call.
The landline Belkin Skype phone is priced in India at Rs 7,300 and the cordless Skype phone is much more handy and priced at Rs 9,712.

3g in India !! BSNL
August 20th, 2009
Atlast the distant dream is coming near and getting launched which is the 3 rd generation mobiles in India.
3G is third mobile generation which enhances the features of mobile technology like high speed internet ,Wi/Fi,GSM etc
BSNL becomes the first in introducing the 3G network to india so from now the mobile with 3G support can utilize the 3G feature of BSNL.
There may still be no clarity on 3G pricing, but that has not stopped the country’s biggest private telco, Bharti Airtel, from putting in place its strategy to roll out 3G services.
Even as the government continues to debate on the price for 3G spectrum, companies like Bharti are leaving little to chance—whether it’s tying up funding or content—all the blocks are being put into place to move off the starting block as soon as possible.
So much so that Bharti claims that its 3G service should be up and running within 6 months of spectrum allocation.
Nokia and Sony has already released many 3G mobiles like Nokia E90,
Nokia 6730 Classic , Sony Ericsson K530i etc
