Pakistan, astronaut, space, 2022, Fawad Chaudhry

50 individuals would be selected after which the list will be shortened to 25 in 2022.

Pakistan Federal Minister for Science and Technology Fawad Chaudhry has said that the country was committed to send its first astronaut to space by 2022.
China would collaborate with Pakistan in its space mission, he said during an interview on Sunday, adding the selection process for the astronaut would start in 2020, reports The News International.
He revealed that initially, 50 individuals would be selected after which the list will be shortened to 25 in 2022.
The Minister added that out of them only one would be sent to space.
The Pakistan Air Force, he said, would play an important role in the astronaut's selection.

गरुड़ पुराण कथा और सार – Garud Puran in Hindi

गरुड़ पुराण कथा और सार – Garud Puran in Hindi गरुड़ पुराण कथा – Garud Puran in Hindi गरुड़ पुराण  हिन्दू धर्म के प्रसिद्ध वेद पुराण में से एक है। वैष्णव सम्प्रदाय से सम्बन्धित गरुण पुराण हिन्दू धर्म में मृत्यु के बाद सद्गति प्रदान करने वाला माना जाता है। इसलिये सनातन हिन्दू धर्म में मृत्यु के बाद ‘गरुड पुराण’ के श्रवण का प्रावधान है। इस पुराण के अधिष्ठातृ देव भगवान विष्णु  हैं। अठारह पुराणों में ‘गरुड़ महापुराण’ का अपना एक विशेष महत्व है। क्योंकि इसके देव स्वयं विष्णु माने जाते हैं, इसीलिए यह वैष्णव पुराण है। गरुड़ पुराण के अनुसार हमारे कर्मों का फल हमें हमारे जीवन में तो मिलता ही है, परंतु मरने के बाद भी कार्यों का अच्छा-बुरा फल मिलता है। इसी वजह से इस ज्ञान को प्राप्त करने के लिए घर के किसी सदस्य की मृत्यु के बाद का अवसर निर्धारित किया गया, ताकि उस समय हम जन्म-मृत्यु से जुड़े सभी सत्य जान सके और मृत्यु वश बिछडऩे वाले सदस्य का दुख कम हो सके। भगवान विष्णु की भक्ति |  Devotion to Lord Vishnu वास्तविक तथ्य यह है कि ‘गरुड़ पुराण’ में भगवान विष्णु ...

Pakistan committed one of the biggest blunders by joining U.S. after 9/11, says Imran Khan

Pakistan committed one of the biggest blunders by joining U.S. after 9/11, says Imran Khan Pakistan . Prime Minister Imran Khan admitted on September 24 that Pakistan committed “one of the biggest blunders” by joining the U.S. after the 9/11 attacks, saying the previous governments “should not have pledged what they could not deliver”. Speaking at the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) think-tank here, Mr. Khan also said the least he expects the international community to do is to urge India to lift the curfew in Kashmir. Responding to a question, Mr. Khan said he had urged his Indian counterpart Narendra Modi to “reset” bilateral ties and his government waited to resume talks until after the elections in India were over but then it found that “India is pushing us in the blacklist of the Financial Action Task Force to bankrupt us”. He said that by abrogating Article 370, India had cast aside the UN Security Council resolutions, the Simla accord and its ...

Science, Tech, Math › Science Laws of Thermodynamics as Related to Biology Share Flipboard Email Energy and Thermodynamics Mikael Häggström/Public Domain by Regina Bailey Updated July 09, 2019 The laws of thermodynamics are important unifying principles of biology. These principles govern the chemical processes (metabolism) in all biological organisms. The First Law of Thermodynamics, also known ​as the law of conservation of energy, states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It may change from one form to another, but the energy in a closed system remains constant. The Second Law of Thermodynamics states that when energy is transferred, there will be less energy available at the end of the transfer process than at the beginning. Due to entropy, which is the measure of disorder in a closed system, all of the available energy will not be useful to the organism. Entropy increases as energy is transferred. In addition to the laws of thermodynamics, the cell theory, gene theory, evolution, and homeostasis form the basic principles that are the foundation for the study of life. First Law of Thermodynamics in Biological Systems All biological organisms require energy to survive. In a closed system, such as the universe, this energy is not consumed but transformed from one form to another. Cells, for example, perform a number of important processes. These processes require energy. In photosynthesis, the energy is supplied by the sun. Light energy is absorbed by cells in plant leaves and converted to chemical energy. The chemical energy is stored in the form of glucose, which is used to form complex carbohydrates necessary to build plant mass. The energy stored in glucose can also be released through cellular respiration. This process allows plant and animal organisms to access the energy stored in carbohydrates, lipids, and other macromolecules through the production of ATP. This energy is needed to perform cell functions such as DNA replication, mitosis, meiosis, cell movement, endocytosis, exocytosis, and apoptosis. Second Law of Thermodynamics in Biological Systems As with other biological processes, the transfer of energy is not 100 percent efficient. In photosynthesis, for example, not all of the light energy is absorbed by the plant. Some energy is reflected and some is lost as heat. The loss of energy to the surrounding environment results in an increase of disorder or entropy. Unlike plants and other photosynthetic organisms, animals cannot generate energy directly from the sunlight. They must consume plants or other animal organisms for energy. The higher up an organism is on the food chain, the less available energy it receives from its food sources. Much of this energy is lost during metabolic processes performed by the producers and primary consumers that are eaten. Therefore, much less energy is available for organisms at higher trophic levels. (Trophic levels are groups that help ecologists understand the specific role of all living things in the ecosystem.) The lower the available energy, the less number of organisms can be supported. This is why there are more producers than consumers in an ecosystem. Living systems require constant energy input to maintain their highly ordered state. Cells, for example, are highly ordered and have low entropy. In the process of maintaining this order, some energy is lost to the surroundings or transformed. So while cells are ordered, the processes performed to maintain that order result in an increase in entropy in the cell's/organism's surroundings. The transfer of energy causes entropy in the universe to increase.
