When a fuel control switch is set to "RUN," fuel flows normally to the engine. When moved to "CUTOFF," fuel supply stops immediately.

In Mudumalai Tiger Reserve alone, the invasive shrub has invaded nearly 44 per cent of the area, disrupting food sources for herbivores and altering soil chemistry, which makes forest regeneration harder. 

Despite challenges, technicians filled all tanks, dispatched a five-person team for the Orion closeout, and safely drained the rocket.

China's average annual temperature has risen over recent decades, and 2025 was the warmest year since nationwide records began in 1961, according ot officials.

The panels are cooled by sea air and receive extra reflected sunlight from the water, they generate 5-15% more power than similar systems on land.

Tourists braved sub-zero temperatures to witness partially frozen cascades, ice-encrusted trees, and misty vapours creating an otherworldly scene.

The recovered mud is believed to contain dysprosium and neodymium. They are key elements used in electric vehicle motor magnets.

This scrub likely pushes back the earliest Artemis II launch window, previously eyed for early February 2026, including dates like February 8.

Named Foskeia, from Greek "fos" for light and "skei" from boskein meaning to forage, the species honours the ancient Pelendones Celtiberian tribe near Fuentes del Duero, Spain.

Over 70 years of spaceflight, nearly 10,000 intact satellites and rocket bodies have plunged back to Earth, yet their final moments remain poorly understood.

The IMD said the weather system is likely to cause scattered rainfall and snowfall across the Western Himalayan region, including Jammu and Kashmir, Ladakh, Himachal Pradesh, and Uttarakhand.

Once swallowed, stomach fluids break down the coating within minutes, releasing both the drug and the antenna. The antenna unfolds, receives an external RF query signal, and, paired with a tiny, non-biodegradable RF chip transmits a confirmation signal back to an external receiver up to 2 feet away. 

Typically, intense geomagnetic storms stem from massive CMEs, expulsions of plasma and magnetic fields from the Sun's corona.

The animals, known for their solitary nature, appear undisturbed, emphasising the ecologically healthy environment of Ladakh's remote borders. 

The 2.5 million sq km plateau, averaging over 4,500 m elevation, spans China, India, Nepal and more. Formed by India's crash into Eurasia, it challenges classic plate tectonics.

Home to over 1.5 million people in surrounding valleys, Fuego poses persistent threats from ashfall, avalanches, and potential lahars during rainy periods. 

These planned enhancements to improve connectivity include corridors between Mumbai-Pune, Pune-Hyderabad, Hyderabad-Bengaluru, Hyderabad-Chennai, Chennai-Bengaluru, Delhi-Varanasi, and Varanasi-Siliguri. 

The project uses satellite tags to monitor migrations, revealing how these endangered sea turtles favour Tamil Nadu's beaches for breeding.
