This week\u2019s cosmic review is quite interesting with amazing news. So, let\u2019s dive right in to\u2026<\/p>
Parker Space Probe<\/b><\/p>
Our star Sun has always fascinated us. But we never really reached the Sun and never go to observe it close enough. Well, NASA has plans for that and now they are close to make it possible. The Parker Space Probe is the one that NASA has for its first mission to touch the Sun. This spacecraft is about the size of a small car and is intended to travel right in to the atmosphere of Sun. You might be wondering how this spacecraft could survive the extreme heat of Sun. The spacecraft is provided with a 4.5 inch thick carbon composite shield which would withstand a temperature of 2500 F. Moreover another interesting fact of this mission is that NASA has for the first time named the spacecraft after a living individual. As this mission was named after Eugene Parker who is an astrophysicist and the one who has done phenomenal work on stars and their behaviour. <\/p>
The most interesting thing about this mission is that, now it\u2019s possible for you to be on the mission. Not literally but, you can now submit your names online which would be placed on the microchip aboard the spacecraft as your name will go along the spacecraft as travels through the Sun\u2019s atmosphere. Sounds interesting right, why don\u2019t you give a try then\u2026<\/p>
Be a part of the mission and register your names through this link: <\/p>

An interstellar visitor <\/b><\/p>
It was on October 19th,2017 that this interstellar visitor , simply a rocky object from another star system was discovered for the first time. It was named Oumuamua and is the first object in our solar system from another star system. It was on the discussion table recently as scientists check the object for FM band signals on a speculation that it could be a interstellar spacecraft. But scientists didn\u2019t found any life sign on it and continue to observe this interesting traveller.<\/p>
SpaceX<\/b><\/p>
The CRS14 mission is still underway as the Dragon Capsule is docked to the ISS for cargo transfer after a Falcon9 launch from SpaceX on 2 April,2018. After two days , the capsule was docked to ISS. The only thing now left to finish the mission successfully is its recovery as Dragon prepares for a splashdown in the Pacific.<\/p>
The next launch for SpaceX would come from yet another Falcon9 which would be carrying NASA\u2019s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite(TESS) which is scheduled to be launched on 16th April and the launch window being 6:32-6:33 EDT( 0402-0403 the next day ,IST).<\/p>
ISRO<\/b><\/p>
The recent GSLV launch which carried GSAT-6A satellite onboard was unsuccessful as the satellite suffered a power glitch after getting into the orbit.<\/p>
ISRO has successfully launched yet another navigational satellite IRNSS-1l which is seventh of it's kind . It was launched aboard PSLV at 0404hrs IST on 12th April,2018. The regional navigation satellite system(NavIC) constellation is now complete with 7 satellites and is now highly efficient.<\/span><\/p>"}]

I have..had.. a friend who when talking about her mental health issues once said to the self-help group that she hit her maid because she was panicking. Not only did she not apologise for what had happened, she paraded that fact around she hit her maid as to show off to people that she was facing mental health issues. That's when I realised that some people are just bad, no matter what they go through. <\/p>
I like to think I'm loyal to my friends, I try my best to do whatever I can do but there is just something wrong about someone parroting around their mental health issues as their personality, apart from the obvious lack of personality. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1522917488275","data":"5ac5e34de898d"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1522917489947","data":"
Let me tell you something. I've suffered with depression for quite some time now, I know what it feels like to get panic attacks because I've been there in myself. Never once during those have I intentionally harmed someone or myself and haven't apologised afterwards. One should be ashamed of causing harm to others but for some reason, it has became sort of a fashion statement to flaunt around your mental health issues these days. <\/p>
The rise of the internet and acceptance of mental health has brought out a new generation of people who think that flaunting their mental health issues will get them sympathy. Maybe because they were never loved in their own homes or maybe because they get off on sympathy, I don't know, but let me make one thing very clear. <\/p>
Your Mental Health Is Not An Excuse To Behave Badly With Other People<\/p>
Especially when those people are lower on the privilege ladder than you. <\/p>"}]
Back in 2013, I happened to meet an incredible woman Arunima Sinha, who overcame her disabilities to become the world's first amputee woman to scale Mt.Everest and that very moment she became my inspo and I fell in love with mountains and mountains started calling me! \nA year later, in 2014, found a channel and started my mountaineering career, initially felt tough balancing education and mountains, and a at point of a time I was been restricted from continuing mountaineering.\nWith the love for mountains in my heart, I finally got graduated with a job that I could bag on campus.\nAs the lines from my favorite song Counting Stars by One Republic goes, \"I feel something so wrong doing the right things!\".I too felt so wrong in doing what society expected me to do. Standing at the crossroads, with call letter in one hand and on the other my passion, I choose to listen to my heart. It was really hard to convince my parents;seeing my dedication towards my passion, it made inevitable for them to let me fly!\nAfter 4 months of intense gym sessions and preparations, I was all set to go! \nA special mention to my trainer turned new found BFF, thanks Waseem for being the strictest and the bestest trainer ever! <\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1523711901932","data":"
Then came the day, 27th of March, the day of our departure, I was drenched with emotions as we left for Tanzania, Africa. As soon as we finished our immigration process and stepped out of the airport, the way our Tanzanian friends received us, I fell in love with Moshi city already! And on our way to the hotel room, I couldn't take my eyes off the beautiful lush green city! \nBefore retiring for the day, our expedition leader and head guide briefed our 6 day sojourn on the mountain. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1523711919804","data":"5ad200650b692"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1523712040265","data":"5ad200d100b91"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1523711993905","data":"5ad2009c64ac8"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1523712066863","data":"

Day 2- As we were still in the Rainforest region, it took us an hour to see another terrain, i.e. Moorland.The thing at mountains is you need to trek at your own pace and not try to match others, our leader and the kiddo were ahead, while me and my guide were together, walking and walking and walking all alone in the barren land with no sight of any human for hours together made us more exhausted, but when you bump into other climbers, you feel alive, and as the age old tradition goes we have to greet the fellow climbers and doing so we feel some kind of good vibes hitting back! \nIt was time to take a break for lunch and unfortunately my lunch pack got misplaced, no amount of energy left in me to trek further, my body has to be reloaded and my generous guide offered me his lunch, while he managed somehow! Thanks Theo :) \nAs soon as we began our journey after the break, it started pouring in very bad, as we didn't expect the sudden shower, this time again,Theo lent me his poncho(raincoat)! \nWe kept trekking and trekking and I got totally exhausted, trying to motivate myself I kept on repeating a quotation by Swami Vivekanand, 'Stop not till the goal is reached', they say our bodies maybe limited but it's our spirits that's unstoppable! and at the sight of camp 2, I was jumping with joy and literally dragged myself towards the camp so that I can have some rest, but I was told that if I rest I would catch fever as we strained our bodies for straight 8-9 hours at the high altitude, we need to just relax and not take a nap so we spent that evening whiling away the time, clicking pictures and exploring the place, having a gala time with our guides, getting into the kitchen muching on some African delicacies.<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1523712321509","data":"5ad201ef7fe6d"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1523712344533","data":"5ad202098614d"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1523712373461","data":"
Day 3, Acclimatization day- This most important day before summit because our body needs to get acclimatized to that height, to that temperature and to that low oxygen levels, we went to the height of 4010mts amsl to get acclimatized.After height gain, returned back to the camp.When kids are around I tend to join them in their playful mode and the child in me gets awaken!

Day 4 - From camp 2, called as Horombo huts, we started off to our camp 3,Kibu huts also called as base camp, this terrain is Alpine dessert. It was again 8-9 hours of trek, very tiring and exhausting, kept trekking and trekking. As we were nearing, Alpine dessert disappeared and the snowy area started and all of a sudden the weather turned bad, it started raining hail storms, difficult to trek, body totally gave up, but at the sight of the mighty Kilimanjaro, all my tiredness vanished. \nI could see the camp, but it was like I'm walking forever but I don't reach at all! \nIt was around 6 in the evening I reached the base camp, drenched and shivering like hell, I jumped into my sleeping bag, and I just can't stop shivering!

Day 5 - Early hours of 2nd April, at 12am I was all set for the summit push. The moment I got out, it was a sight to behold, a bright full moon with sky full of stars. We kept trekking pole pole(in Tanzanian language pole pole means slowly :p) \nAltitude sickness has hit me by then, I couldn't just keep my eyes open, and was falling off. Due to low oxygen levels in the body, we are not conscious of what we do, I kept on troubling my guide and with that he left me and went away! It was now time to trouble the head guide Simon, who started being with me. \nI was constantly sleeping, you sleep at that high altitude, and you will not wake up forever, poor Simon kept singing songs for me all the way! Thanks Simon for putting up with me! \nAnother beautiful sight to behold was the sunrise!. Due to sun's heat I started feeling less sleepy and continued to marched on, the thick and loose blanket of snow made the ascent even more difficult. The weather worsened, it started snowing, zero visibly but there was something inside of me that was burning so bright that said Don't stop! \nI couldn't contain my emotions as I reached the roof of Africa! After reaching the top I was like, damn man I need to descend all the way down!. It took nearly two hours to get back to the base camp, as it is the base camp we are not allowed to stay there for long, it took another 4 hours to reach camp 2! Finally reached Moshi the next day!4th of April was the day of departure from the beautiful Moshi, it was an emotional goodbye to our local guides, unknowingly we got so attached to them promising that we'll come back soon,we flew out!<\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1523712569381","data":"5ad202ea48ad0"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1523712596525","data":"5ad202fd36d82"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1523712658170","data":"5ad20342873d4"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1523712685386","data":"5ad203599cb54"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1523713197963","data":"

Whatever we do in our lives, good or bad, will affect somebody like ripples<\/a> on the water. They expand, they touch something before they slowly vanish... Ripples<\/a> come in many ways, from love and spite, hope and despair and joy and pain; shaping who we are, exchanging what we lose for what we gain... Sometimes the ripples<\/a> which someone has created in your life continues on, long after the person has gone, not bounded by the twilight, but cherished, kept safe, hidden in heart. <\/p>\nEvery life affects another. Our actions, our words, our silence...everything we do affects those around us. Our life ripples<\/a> expand, bump into and sweep through other's life ripples<\/a> just like rain drops on a still lake. <\/p>\nThe affects can be subtle and we go many days without personally feeling the affects of our actions to people around us...nothing special has really changed or may be... We are blind to what is around us. At other times, it feels like we are in midst of a terrible storm with waves quaking up over heads. Sometimes the poison of someone else's life ripple can hit us with such a big wave that we in turn push a similar wave back at someone else.<\/p>\nLife along with everything else in this world, draws its meaning from you. You give life meaning. Life is what you make it to be. Life is to CREATE it as you go. There are no rules, no guidelines, no expectations, simply a HUGE playing field in which to experience whatever you want, have whatever you want and meet whatever you want.<\/p>\nLife is like a silver screen, director is life, producer is our actions, we are actors, writer is destiny, continuously we are acting in movie. Sometimes sad, sometimes happy, sometimes fear, sometimes escape...<\/p>\nOur life ripples<\/a> spread across the world bumping into other people's ripples<\/a>...Everything is really connected in this world. Negative waves are going to hit us, they may even submerge us for a time, however, we have the power to not return or pass onto others, the negative waves. <\/p>\nI am sure we all know how positive waves can send us soaring across the surface of life. What we need to remember is that we can also send other people to new heights which our own positive waves or destroy a piece of other's life with a negative wave.PLEASE be mindful of what type of life ripples<\/a> you are sending out to the people around you as we follow ripple effect which states \"ONE SMALL CHANGE CAN HAVE AN ENORMOUS IMPACT \".<\/p>\n (-: Thank you :-)<\/p>\n"}]

Life is like a silver screen, director is life, producer is our actions, we are actors, writer is destiny, continuously we are acting in movie. Sometimes sad, sometimes happy, sometimes fear, sometimes escape...<\/p>\n
Our life ripples<\/a> spread across the world bumping into other people's ripples<\/a>...Everything is really connected in this world. Negative waves are going to hit us, they may even submerge us for a time, however, we have the power to not return or pass onto others, the negative waves. <\/p>\nI am sure we all know how positive waves can send us soaring across the surface of life. What we need to remember is that we can also send other people to new heights which our own positive waves or destroy a piece of other's life with a negative wave.PLEASE be mindful of what type of life ripples<\/a> you are sending out to the people around you as we follow ripple effect which states \"ONE SMALL CHANGE CAN HAVE AN ENORMOUS IMPACT \".<\/p>\n (-: Thank you :-)<\/p>\n"}]

I've made no secret of the fact that my biggest weakness, apart from video games, are books. I just can't seem to stop reading books, I absolutely love and adore reading and it comes as no surprise then that my favourite place to be in any new city I visit is a giant library that I can get lost in and spend the whole day carefully drinking coffee and reading so as to not piss off the librarian who keeps a watchful gaze on us errant book lovers. I recently came across an article which featured pictures of some really beautiful libraries and this one here is my personal list of which ones I want to visit. Check it out! <\/p>
1. Tianjin Binhai Library \u2014 China <\/b><\/p>
Visiting China is worth it not just for the cheap electronics but for this mind bogglingly beautiful library. I mean just look at how sleek and cleverly designed it is. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1522392507901","data":"5abdde1c8ae47"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1522392516890","data":"
2. National Library of Belarus \u2014 Belarus <\/b><\/p>
I don't know if I ever wanted to visit Belarus before this but now I sure as hell do. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1522392556879","data":"5abdde694c812"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1522392592781","data":"
3. Bishan Public Library \u2014 Singapore <\/b><\/p>
I'm proud of the fact that I've been to this library when I took a solo trip to Singapore a couple of years ago. I crashed at a traveller's hostel, mingled with some amazing people and spent a lot of time at the Bishan Public Library. I mean, who wouldn't, just look at how beautiful it is. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1522392666464","data":"5abddec2abae1"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1522392682481","data":"
4. The Library of El Escorial \u2014 Spain <\/b><\/p>
Designed like a cathedral, The Library of El Escorial is worth visiting for the elaborate frescos on the ceiling alone. It's just beautiful. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1522392749098","data":"5abddf13a4fcd"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1522392763114","data":"
5. Oxford University Queen's College Library \u2014 England <\/b><\/p>
I mean come on, who doesn't want to go to the Oxford University Queen's College Library. It's beautiful, it's historic - imagine the kind of knowledge gained here and what conquests were planned - and as Indians, it should be cathartic to stick it to the empire by visiting and reading here. Maybe spilling some coffee on the floor. <\/p>
Don't actually do that, I cringed while writing it. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1522392867134","data":"5abddf8a97937"}]

TIME OR LAZINESS <\/u><\/b><\/p>
Time comes and goes, <\/p>
Laziness are their foes. <\/p>
It\u2019s in your hands which side you pick, <\/p>
Hope you won\u2019t get lazy or sick. <\/p>
\nWe rely on time we claim, <\/p>
But we couldn\u2019t keep up its name. <\/p>
That\u2019s when laziness takes us away; <\/p>
From the dearest time, who always showed us when to leave or stay. <\/p>
\nNow time is just a show case, <\/p>
New or old piece, but always ticks in the same ways. <\/p>
We spend time in our convenience, <\/p>
But we don\u2019t disturb our lazy brains. <\/p>
\nTime is equal to God they say, <\/p>
The almighty gives us time for everything,\nYet we forget to pray. <\/p>
Never say \u201cI\u2019m busy or I don\u2019t have much time\u201d, <\/p>
But train your brains to turn away from that lazy enzyme, <\/p>
Which keeps cleaving away the precious time. <\/p>
Every new day which starts with a sun rise, <\/p>
Should end with positive vibes. <\/p>
Just beware not to turn lazy, <\/p>
Or you\u2019ll end up being hazy. <\/p>
\nDo what you have to do today, <\/p>
Watch out not to tremble in a lazy way. <\/p>
Remember that time has also given you birth . <\/p>
You must be thinking that the above phrase is something you have never heard.<\/p>
It\u2019s the time which formed you in the womb. <\/p>
It\u2019s the time who made you this way. <\/p>
We all know, that one day we\u2019ll end up in a tomb. <\/p>
It\u2019s your choice to end it in the right time, <\/p>
Or being lazy throughout your lifetime.<\/p>

Lot of us have a interest and passion towards space and the cosmos when we were young and curious. But, as we grow we feel that the field of space is impractical and gradually loose our connection to it. Some of us still have that passion and curiosity for it and for all those space geeks and those who have a slightest of interest on growing cosmos and human intervention in it. Guess what ,now its way more easy to stay on par with the things happening in the cosmos and human exploration on your favourite platform. This is a weekly review which highlights all the latest updates of major happenings and events in the cosmos<\/p>
THE FALL OF TIANGONG-1<\/p>
The Tiangong1 , China\u2019s first space station has fallen back to earth after 7 years of its journey around the planet. Launched on Sept 29,2011 tiangong1 served its basic missions quite impressively. It was in March 2016,Chinese have lost their control on the Tiangong1 and the exact reason was disclosed. It was a big blow for them and was a matter of worry as its atmospheric entry was inevitable and out of control apart from the only thrusters control they had. It was on 0544 hours yesterday,Tiangong1 finally touched down the Earth in Pacific ocean although it missed Point NEMO(also called the Space Cementry). It was an end to a greatest feat performed by Chinese in setting up their own space station. <\/p>
