Presently deuterated compounds are imported in the country. We intend to make heavy water available for the Indian companies to produce them indigenously at much lower costs: HWB Chairman and Chief Executive U. Kamachi Mudali
Using early spectral data from NASA's OSIRIS-REx spacecraft orbiting the asteroid, the team identified infrared properties similar to those in a type of meteorite called carbonaceous chondrites.
The landing site is on the spillway of an ancient sea that experienced catastrophic floods released from the planet's subsurface and its sediments.Nearly half a century ago the Mariner 9 spacecraft returned images of some of the largest channels in the Solar System
Measuring fluoride at low concentrations with sufficient accuracy is expensive and requires a well-equipped chemical lab.
Researchers from the US Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory adapted a chemical reaction pathway, central to plant biology, to form the backbone of the process to extract into hydrogen fuel from water.
Researchers noted that since comets contain a lot of ices, it could have supplied some water. Asteroids, which are not as water-rich yet still plentiful, could be a source as well.
The increased consumption of fluid could also help reduce the use of antibiotics as such infections are typically treated with antibiotics.
The scientific community has largely assumed that planets covered in a deep ocean would not support the cycling of minerals and gases that keeps the climate stable on Earth, and thus would not be friendly to life.
The data collected will supplement the information NASA's Juno spacecraft is gathering. The spacecraft circles the planet from north to south once every 53 days.
The Great Red Spot is full of dense clouds, which makes it hard for electromagnetic energy to escape and teach astronomers anything about the chemistry within.
At 8 pm on Tuesday, the Yamuna river was flowing at 206.05 metres at Old Yamuna Bridge which has been closed for vehicular traffic.
The experts said that the temporary healthy state of Yamuna would subside after the monsoon season and sewage water would again pollute the river if steps are not taken to prevent its contamination.
The apex court perused the report by NITI Aayog, which had stated that various authorities were passing the buck and shying away from their responsibility.
Did you think drinking excess water is good for your health? Excess of anything is bad.
Freshwater, which is used for drinking and agriculture is one of the most essential Earth's resources.
Older adults should adopt adequate drinking behaviours to reduce cognitive fatigue.
The court said that if multiplexes were prohibiting people from bringing outside food, then there should be a total prohibition on eatables.
World Water Day is a reminder that we have the privilege of 20 percent of world’s fresh water flowing through our community every day.
A recent study has found that water may have been brought to Earth by meteorites during the first two million years of birth of the solar system.
In yet another surprising revelation related to Mars, a study has claimed that the environment of the Red Planet over 3.5 billion years ago was able to support liquid water at the surface.
