@naralokesh That report is based on the statistics released by Govt of AP under able leadership of Mr Nara Lokesh
And Lokesh is validating the Lokesh achievement
Wow! Just Wow!
Kriti Sanon wearing a bikini in a Raksha Bandhan ad creates more outrage than Ram Rahim getting parole 17 times after being convicted of rape.
That alone says everything.
BJP supporters including BJP MP Tejasvi Surya did huge outrage when 2 to 3 students were asked to remove Janeu before CET exam in Bengaluru
They even met Police Commissioner and demanded for investigation
But now when more than 20 Lakh students were badly affected due to NEET paper leak and exam cancellation, all those are completely silent 🤐🤡
Let me explain what just happened today because it deserves so much recognition.
GalaxEye is a Bengaluru startup founded in 2021 by IIT Madras engineers. Today they launched Mission Drishti on a SpaceX Falcon 9. It is India's largest privately built satellite at 190 kg. And it carries a technology that no commercial satellite has ever carried before.
Normal satellites take photos of the Earth using optical cameras. Like your phone camera, but from 500 km up. The problem is obvious. Clouds. Night. Fog. Smoke. If any of these are in the way, the photo is useless. India has monsoon cover for 4 months a year. That is 4 months where optical satellites are partially or fully blind over large parts of the country.
The alternative is SAR. Synthetic Aperture Radar. Instead of taking photos with light, it sends radar waves down and reads what bounces back. Radar goes through clouds, through darkness, through smoke. A SAR satellite can image a flooded village at 2 AM during a cyclone when no optical satellite can see anything.
The problem with SAR is that the images look nothing like photos. They look like grainy black-and-white radar maps. A military analyst or a trained geospatial engineer can read them. A farmer, a disaster response team, or a city planner cannot.
Until today, if you wanted both optical and SAR data for the same location, you needed two different satellites, passing over at different times, at different angles. Then someone had to manually align and fuse the two datasets. Expensive, slow, and the data never perfectly matched because the satellites saw the same spot minutes or hours apart.
GalaxEye put both sensors on one satellite. Optical and SAR, fused into what they call OptoSAR. Three times more information than a single sensor. Processed onboard by an NVIDIA AI chip at 1.8 metre resolution.
Now in practice, during the next cyclone hitting Odisha, one satellite pass gives you a clear image of which villages are flooded, which roads are cut, and which buildings are standing. Day or night. Cloud or clear. In near real-time.
For defence, it means you can monitor a border area 24/7 regardless of weather. For agriculture, it means tracking crop health across an entire monsoon season without a single cloud gap. For infrastructure, it means monitoring construction progress on highways and bridges without waiting for a clear day.
GalaxEye tested their SAR tech on ISRO's POEM orbital platform. The satellite was tested at ISRO facilities. IN-SPACe provided regulatory clearance. NSIL, ISRO's commercial arm, will distribute the imagery globally. And it launched on SpaceX because ISRO's PSLV doesn't have the right orbit slot for this mission.
Yes, four IIT Madras graduates built a world-first satellite in 4 years in Bengaluru.
Take a bow!

One firm with the staff of a college campus makes as much as India’s 3 biggest banks. But this isn't efficiency. It’s extraction. 🧵
@IndianTechGuide I feel like petty issues like this should have timelines like say 6 month or 1 year. because of this kind of issues major issues like food adulteration or misrepresentation of facts are taking sidelined
We are investing valuable Judiciary resources on things having less impact
INC was removed in 2014 chiefly because of reasons:
corruption, inflation &policy paralysis
But now we are witnessing unimaginable corruption, back-breaking inflation, policy disasters.
Bonus: a divided nation,fake news-laden godi media, &disastrous foreign policy.
Benefit?
