Happened to watch The Universe Series on History Channel last nite and was completely glued to it, thanks to its compelling content, out of the world visualizations and the works.

Time : 10 pm IST, Wednesdays

Episode One dealt with the theories (Steady State vs Big Bang) of the origin of the Universe, how Copernicus, Kepler and Galileo proposed and proved the helios centric theory, invention of telescope, radio telescope, Newton’s discovery of gravity and laws of motion, time-line of the Universe, variable speed of planets, formation and death of a star et all.

Now, I am trying to resist the temptation to buy a Telescope and spend more time on Google Sky.

Out there in the Perimeter….

Stellarium is a free open source planetarium for your computer. It shows a realistic sky in 3D, just like what you see with the naked eye, binoculars or a telescope. It is being used in planetarium projectors. Just set your coordinates and go.

Exam Time : Goin deeper underground until July end, as the last semester exams are about to begin. Marketing Research is an interesting paper that I am looking forward to dwell upon, primarily because its got plenty of parallels to User Requirements Research. Readin up theory on Data Collection Analysis & Interpretation.

THAT should give us some perspectives on how small our problems are!
