Pushpak: ISRO’s Reusable Launch Vehicle

What?- The Pushpak RLV is part of ISRO's technologically complex Reusable Launch Vehicle – Technology Demonstrator (RLV-TD) project.

Purpose?- The main goal of India's RLV program is to significantly reduce the cost of launching payloads into space by developing reusable launch vehicles. This would make space missions more affordable and accessible.

The Pushpak RLV builds on technology developed for the X-33, X-34, and upgraded DC-XA experimental spacecraft ( NASA). The Indian Air Force (IAF) supported the mission with a Chinook helicopter for the RLV's initial lift.

Note : The Pushpak RLV is named after a flying chariot in the Hindu epic, the Ramayana.

Agni-5 Missile- Divyastra

Importance of MIRV- MIRV technology is like a special delivery vehicle that can carry multiple goods at the same time- each of these goods are supposed to be delivered at a different address.

In case of missiles the goods delivered is warheads- Using guidance systems, each warhead in the MIRV missile can be separated and aimed at a different location, hitting multiple targets with one launch. Imagine this like a swiggy delivery guy - Instead of needing several trips with one pizza each, MIRV lets you deliver multiple pizzas in one go, increasing your reach and impact.

Genome India project

Context?- successful sequencing of 10,000 genomes from diverse populations across India creates a vital genetic map.

Example of use case : Mutations like MYBPC3 (cardiac arrest) and LAMB3 (lethal skin condition) highlight the value of an India-specific database in understanding the genetic basis of diseases.

Personalized Treatment Strategies: Precision medicine leverages genetic information to match patients with therapies most likely to be effective, and minimizes adverse reactions.

Analyzing genetic data can uncover predispositions to diseases, enabling personalized risk assessments and early interventions.A genome is all the genetic material in an organism, like a full set of instructions for making and keeping a body running. To figure out someone's genome, scientists take a sample, often from blood, and break it into smaller bits.
