An ISRO study found that for every rupee the organisation spent, the return was ₹2.50 to the society, ISRO Chairman S Somanath said. He said ISRO's goal was to serve the country rather than to compete for supremacy among the spacefaring nations. "Going to the moon is a costly affair. And we can't depend only on government funding," he added.

Astronaut Sunita Williams' colleague Barry 'Butch' Wilmore, who is also stranded with her on International Space Station, is also considerably losing body mass, said a report quoting a source. "He had a lot more mass at the start," said the NASA source. Wilmore reportedly weighed 210 lbs (95 kg) at the beginning of the Boeing Starliner mission.

NASA astronaut Sunita Williams, who's been stranded in space, dispelled health concerns over her changed appearance, saying the reason isn't weight loss but 'fluid shift'. It's a phenomenon where bodily fluids shift upwards in microgravity, giving the face a puffier appearance, while limbs may appear thinner. Williams said she's developed muscle in her thighs and buttocks due to regular squats.

NASA astronaut Sunita Williams dismissed rumours of severe weight loss that stemmed from her recent image from ISS and assured that she is healthy. Responding to media speculation, she clarified, "I'm the same weight that I was when I got up here." Williams attributed any changes in her appearance to the strict exercise routine astronauts maintain to counter microgravity effects.

YouTube is testing an AI feature called Dream Track that lets creators remix licensed songs for Shorts. This tool allows users to alter the mood, genre, and tempo of tracks. It is being tested by a select group of creators and features music from artists like Charlie Puth, Charli XCX, Demi Lovato, and John Legend, who have consented to AI use.

A new glowing mollusc, Bathydevius caudactylus, has been discovered in ocean's midnight zone. About the size of an apple, this bioluminescent sea slug has a paddle-like tail and a large gelatinous hood. Unlike typical sea slugs, which live on seafloor or near surface, it thrives at depths between 3,300 and 13,100 feet, making it the first known deep-ocean sea slug.

Delhi is seeing an unusually warm November, with temperatures soaring over four degrees above the usual average. As per IMD, it's not cold in Delhi yet as northern wind flow and Western Disturbances, which typically bring colder air, haven't fully set in. Since the monsoon concluded in October, Delhi and its surrounding plains haven't experienced these disturbances.

Data from NASA's Voyager 2 mission has indicated that Uranus and its largest moons may contain hidden oceans, suggesting conditions that could support life. The findings were spurred by data from an intense solar storm and has challenged prior perceptions regarding Uranus. NASA has planned a mission to further explore Uranus with the probe expected to reach Uranus by 2045.

Heightened solar activity in Solar Cycle 25 has caused premature re-entry for Curtin University’s Binar CubeSats, reducing their research lifespan from six months to just two. The surge in solar flares expands Earth’s atmosphere, increasing satellite drag, especially on smaller satellites. Weather forecasters expect solar activity to peak by 2026 before declining toward a solar minimum by 2030.

Solar Cycle 25 puts satellites at risk, curtailing missions

Men with both diabetes and kidney disease may face heart problems 28 years earlier than those without these conditions, researchers said at the American Heart Association meeting. For women, heart issues could arise 26 years earlier. Diabetes and kidney disease, key components of the cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome, heighten heart risk when combined, making early intervention crucial.
