Is the universe infinite??

  As a child or adult, one question that have definitely aroused in everyone's mind is  "Is this universe infinite or it has some boundaries?" as a science or  astronomy student this might be the first question to arouse in students mind.  Coming back to the answer of this beautiful question- The observable universe is still huge but it has limits. This is because we know that the universe isn't infinitely old - we know that the big bang occured some 13.8 billion years ago. So from this we can conclude that the light has had only 13.8 billion years to travel and hence defines the limitations of universe. All we know or scientists believe is that universe is still far above  from our observable distance but at some point it has limits for sure.

Is there possibility of existing life on Mars??

Without talking about here and there, I will come straight to the topic.
 The possibility of existence of life on mars is a topic of significant interest. Mars is of particular interest for the origin of life as it has similarly  to the early earth. This is so because the mars has the cold climate and thus it has remain unchanged since a long time of about billion years. Atleast 2/3rd of the mars surface is 3.5 billion years old.

The finding of organic compounds inside the sedimentary rocks and of boron on mars are of interest as they indicated towards preboitic chemistry.
Such findings along with the discovery that the liquid water was clearly present on the ancient mars further supports the possibility of life on mars.

In June 2018, the NASA  announce d the detection of seasonal variation of methane on mars. Methane could be produced by microorganisms or geological means. This largely supports life existence there.

Chemical , physical, geological and geographic attributes shape the environments on mars. Isolated measurements of these factors may be insufficient to deem an environmental habitat But the sum of measurements can help predict the locations with greater or lesser habitability potential.

Liquid water is necessary but not the sufficient condition as humans know it.
Also liquid can not exist on the surface of mars ,it present on the lower surface of mars bot that also not in the form of liquid water but in the form of snow being melted by the heat of sun for a duration of few minutes .
So at all, to the date there is no proof of the past or present life on mars but the mars is the only planet in the entire solar system  after earth which has some possibility of existence of life.

What was the reason behind the death of kalpana chawla(Astronaut)??

Introduction Kalpana Chawla was an American astronaut, engineer, and the first woman of Indian descent to go to space. She first flew on Space Shuttle Columbia in 1997 as a mission specialist and primary robotic arm operator. She was very brilliant in his works, she also won the various medals in field of astronomy and robotics. Cause of her death US space shuttle Columbia disintegrated shortly before landing on Saturday morning, killing the seven crew members on board, including Indian-American Kalpana Chawla. Witnesses in and near Waco and Dallas, Texas, reported seeing the space shuttle breaking up around 8 am local time, about 16 minutes before its scheduled landing at Cape Caneveral, Florida. Local cameramen captured several vapour trails in a clear blue sky as the shuttle broke up. Columbia was returning to earth after a 16-day mission and was commanded by Texan Rick Husband, who was on his second mission. It was also the second mission for Karnal, Haryana-bor...

Astral projection

You all might have seen the tv show shaktimaan in your childhood. In many of its episodes you would have seen the soul of the shaktimaan and his guru releasing out from their bodies , whenever they do" jaap" or a kind of meditation.  You all might have enjoyed watching it but do you know it is also possible in real life and what it is called? so here is the answer to your question.This whole process of separation of soul from body is called as "astral projection". Astral projection is a term used to define an intention al out of body experience that assumes the existense of a soul or consiciousness called "astral body" that is separate from the physical body and capable of travelling outside it throughout the universe. Although it looks possible  scientifically and factually bout still practically it has been mentioned as not possible and has been included in "pseudoscience". I hope a interest is been developed in your brai...
