Force India’s tribute to Sachin Tendulkar In His Last Test
Sachin Tendulkar has been a source of inspiration for several sportspersons and teams across India. Sahara Force India has decided to pay a tribute to Tendulkar who is all set to retire next month. As an honour to the batting great, Force India has put a hashtag #masterblaster on the nose section of its cars for the Indian GP
“Like Tendulkar, Sahara Force India aims to be a big hitter in the world of sport. With our cars adorned with the commemorative hashtag,
our team will endeavour to harness the passion of an entire country and achieve a great result at our home race,” said a statement from the team.
“Cricket is a religion in India and Tendulkar is the best cricketer in the world. We are proud of his achievements.
“As he signs off, we in Sahara Force India feel that we should pay a befitting tribute to him,” said the team Principal Vijay Mallya.
Mars mission will be a big leap for the country: ISRO
BANGALORE: If the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) lifts off on November 5 from Sriharikota as planned, it will be watched by more than a normal share of anxious eyes. It is a difficult mission, and fickle weather adds to the complexity.
But ISRO chairman K Radhakrishnan is not prone to fits of worry. "The PSLV is the best vehicle in its class," he says, "which is why many countries are using it now to launch their satellites." A mission to Mars will require taking into account the influence of earth, the moon, the sun and, of course, the destination planet, all of which keep changing positions with the day of the launch.
A small error in calculation will miss the target by tens of thousands of miles. "The spacecraft's arrival point on Mars has to be calculated to an accuracy of 60 miles about 280 days in advance," says Radhakrishnan. "It takes beyond textbook mechanics to achieve this precision." An excursion to the red planet does not come easy to even to the most experienced.
The Russians have a long history of failures in Mars missions. The Chinese have not yet attempted its own mission, and so Mangalyaan is extra special for India. "It will be a big leap for the country," says Goverdhan Mehta, space commission member. The Americans, Russians and Europeans have used larger rockets for their Mars missions. India is using the smaller PSLV, usually used to put small satellites into a low-earth orbit over the poles. The launch window to Mars is very small, the next one being available only in 2018. ISRO has already postponed the launch once due to bad weather.
If the PSLV does not go up before November 19, ISRO has to wait for another five years to get similar conditions. The PSLV is India's most mature rocket. ISRO has launched 35 satellites so far using PSLV and 10 are in waiting list for launch. The Mars mission will use PSLV in new ways, thereby adding new complexities. The trajectory of the spacecraft is very different to begin with.This new trajectory, the calculations for which are different for each launch date, requires a long coasting of the rocket between third and fourth stage. "The management of the long coast between third and fourth stage is a complex issue," says V Adimurthy, Satish Dhawanprofessor and senior advisor (interplanetary missions) of ISRO. There is only one time slot for lift-off- with five minutes leeway - available for launch during a specific day.
"The time of lift-off and required coasting duration is different for each day of launch; and one has to work out a series of different trajectory management strategies corresponding to each possible launch date," says Adimurthy. The satellite is first launched into an elliptical orbit at a velocity far less than what is required - over 11 km per second - for it to escape from the earth.
To make it come up to this velocity would require three to five manouevres using rockets in the spacecraft, depending on the velocity and position of the spacecraft when first injected. When it finally reaches Mars, not more than 60 km away from the intended spot, the spacecraft has to slow down for it to be captured into the Mars orbit. If this is not done with precision, the spacecraft will either fly by or crash into the Martian surface.

Sachin's final stand: fans have to be very lucky to get tickets
They say he is God to 1.2 billion Indian cricket fans and when he walks on to the pitch, they walk with him. But, when Sachin Tendulkar plays his final two Test matches, the fans will all but be kept out of the stadiums - there are very few tickets for them.
Tendulkar plays his 199th and the second last Test of his 24-year-long career at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata from November 6-10. One of India’s biggest cricketing arenas with a capacity of 66,000, the Eden has only roughly 6,000 tickets for ordinary mortals.
Wankhede Stadium, where the second and the last Test of the series against West Indies begins on November 14, is even more cruel. The Mumbai stadium has room for 32,000 but only about 2,000 tickets for the fans for home boy’s final and 200th Test.
So who will be in the stands for the once-in-a-lifetime event? Usual suspects - celebrities, politicians, cricket association affiliates, life members, sponsors ... The list is long.
To get open tickets, which will be available online, one has to be lucky, really lucky. There are just too few tickets for arguably one of the biggest cricketing events in recent years. And remember when sale for 2011 World Cup final tickets opened? The website crashed and never recovered.
Sure, tickets would be sold on the sly, but wouldn’t come cheap. The going rate for a ticket to the Mumbai game is already Rs. 2 lakh, said a source.
Better settle for TV and call in some friends to have a game going.
Did You Know 30 Percent of Americans Get News on Facebook
Most people don't go on Facebook in search of news, but many find it there, according to a new survey from the Pew Research Center.
"Overall, about half of adult Facebook users, or 47 percent, 'ever' get news there," Pew said in itsreport. "That amounts to 30 percent of the population."
The survey of 5,173 U.S. adults, conducted between Aug. 21 and Sept. 2, found that 78 percent of those who consume news on Facebook do so after visiting the site for another reason. Just 4 percent said Facebook is the most important way they get news. In general, many think that Facebook is a good way to hear about breaking news without actually seeking it out.
Even so, "the survey provides evidence that Facebook exposes some people to news who otherwise might not get it," Pew said. For instance, 38 percent of "heavy news followers" say Facebook is an important way to get news, compared to 47 percent who follow news less often.
One respondent even said that if it wasn't for Facebook, "I'd probably never really know what's going on in the world because I don't have time to keep up with the news on a bunch of different locations."
This is especially true for younger adults, Pew said. Those between the ages of 18 and 29 account for about a third, or 34 percent, of all Facebook news consumers.
"All in all, then, it may be the very incidental nature of the site that ultimately exposes more people to news there," Pew said. "Indeed, the more time one spends on the site, the more likely they are to get news there."
Sixty-seven percent of those who use Facebook for at least an hour a day get news there compared with 41 percent of those who spend less than an hour a day on the site. Users most often get entertainment news on Facebook, followed by information about happenings in their community, sports, and national politics and government news.
