While traveling back to my hometown by train, the TT checked tickets twice using a tablet but never asked for any ID verification. Doesn't this create a loophole for tickets to be resold at higher prices, with the buyer simply claiming the name on the reservation? @RailMinIndia
Her name is Kuljeet Kaur Marhas.
She is a professor at the Planetary Science Division of the Physical Research Laboratory in Ahmedabad, one of India's most respected space science institutions, which works closely with ISRO.
On May 9 2026 she was elected Fellow of The Meteoritical Society, one of the most prestigious scientific bodies in the world dedicated to the study of meteorites, planetary materials and the origins of the Solar System. The society was founded in 1933. It has been electing Fellows for 93 years.
She is the first Indian woman in those 93 years to receive this honour.
She is only the third Indian scientist ever. The two before her were Devendra Lal and J.N. Goswami, both giants of Indian science.
Her work focuses on understanding how the Solar System was formed billions of years ago. She studies ancient extraterrestrial materials, tiny grains that existed before the Sun was born, fragments locked inside meteorites that fell to Earth carrying secrets from the earliest moments of our Solar System's existence.
Using advanced instruments including a technology called nanoSIMS, she reads isotopic signatures at the nanoscale, measurements so precise they can detect variations in matter that formed 4.6 billion years ago.
Most Indians will never hear her name.
She is quietly answering one of the oldest questions in science: where did we come from?

Definitely, you did it!
Blaming the authorities is the easiest job now. In contrast, they toiled hard since morning for a smooth running of this event.
It’s a proper failure of governance by the Government.
If IPL match can be played without chaos, why wasn't it today?

Being a POCE alumnus I would strongly request the 1st year UnderGrads to apply to this unique program found no where in India. Honestly, POCE was a turning point for my life to opt Chemistry over other disciplines (1/3)
@CMofKarnataka ನಮಗೆ ಲಬೋರೇಟರಿ ಖಂಡಿತವಾಗಿಯೂ ಬೇಕು. ಅದಕ್ಕಿಂತ ಮೊದಲು ಸುಸಜ್ಜಿತ ಆಸ್ಪತೆಯ ಅವಶ್ಯಕತೆ ಇದೆ. ಏನಾದರೂ ಅಪಘಾತ ಆದರೆ ಉಡುಪಿ-ಮಣಿಪಾಲ ಹೋಗಿ ಅಂತ ವೈದ್ಯರು ಹೇಳುತ್ತಾರೆ. ಮಧ್ಯ ದಾರಿಯಲ್ಲೇ ಅದೆಷ್ಟೋ ಜನ ತಮ್ಮ ಪ್ರಾಣ ಕಳೆದುಕೊಂಡಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಈ ಸಂದೇಶದಿಂದ ಯಾವುದೇ ಬದಲಾವಣೆ ಆಗುವುದಿಲ್ಲ ಎಂದು ಗೊತ್ತಿದ್ದರೂ ನಿಮಗೆ ತಿಳಿಸುವ ಕರ್ತವ್ಯ ನನ್ನದಾಗಿದೆ
Training for Ax-4 has begun and I already feel right at home. After a comprehensive onboarding process in Houston we traveled to @SpaceX in Hawthorne for suit measurements and pressurization tests. The crew also had their first introduction to Dragon!
