Voyager 1 is 16 billion miles from Earth, still transmitting data. Its power source has been running for 48 years. Voyager is kept alive by a single isotope. 4.5 kilograms of plutonium-238 sits inside a thermoelectric generator. As the isotope decays, it produces heat. 312 silicon-germanium thermocouples convert that heat into electricity. The generator has no moving parts. Hot side at 1,000°C, cold side at 300°C. 470 watts at launch from that temperature gap. The generator is 93.5% inefficient. That inefficiency is what keeps the spacecraft from freezing at -270°C. Power has decayed from 470 watts to 220 since launch. Engineers have shut down 8 of its 10 instruments to squeeze a few more years of data out of interstellar space. Starting in the 1970s over 2,000 plutonium-powered pacemakers went into human chests. Now researchers are replacing plutonium with carbon-14 in synthetic diamond. Carbon-14 only emits beta radiation and the diamond blocks all of it. A 5,700-year battery safe enough to hold in your hand.

@clary_co You now seem to have gotten rid of pretenses too, of being unbiased!

I get how Sikhism functions. But the look of an elected CM being summoned by a religious body to explain his behaviour in a democracy is just not cool. I am not an AAP voter. Heck I dislike that party and Bhagwant Mann. But in modern India we should find this kind of stuff to be unwarranted. A chief minister is only answerable to the constitution and his electorate. Not to some random religious body. And I would have the same problem if the CM was a Hindu or a Muslim or a Christian.

हज़ारों दर्द अपने दिल में समेटे,
चेहरे पर हमेशा मुस्कान रखता है।
एक पिता ही है,
जो यह कमाल करता है।

Too many times
I tried to convince myself
That love was supposed
To hurt this much

[Sakura @SakuraaHanako]

I never blocked you
Not because it didn't hurt
But because it would hurt more
To become a place you can't return to

Ahmed Faraz understood that love is not always about meeting sometimes it's about letting go with grace.

इंसान अपने अकेलेपन से निजात पाने के लिए मुहब्बत करता है, और मुहब्बत इस बात की तस्दीक करती है कि उसका अकेलापन अब ताउम्र कायम रहेगा।
