Space Farming

UK researchers suggest the feasibility of creating affordable, lightweight space solar panels for energy generation.

Days before pieces of what is believed to be a Chinese rocket fall on Earth, parts of space junk were found at a sheep farm in Australia.

In an online press conference, Executive Director, Auto and Farm Sectors, Mahindra and Mahindra, confirmed that the company will not enter the lucrative electric two-wheeler space in India.

At a time when the governments at the centre and Madhya Pradesh have been espousing the benefits of the new farm laws and assuring that wholesale agriculture markets, or mandis, will remain open, the state agricultural marketing board has been looking at a huge loss and an uncertain future.

International non-governmental organisation (NGO) Khalsa Aid on Friday set up a foot massage centre in makeshift spaces for the farmers who are protesting against the farm laws at the Singhu border in the National Capital Region.

Amid calls for a "peaceful" Bharat Bandh, farmers, who have refused to give space to political leaders in their protest against repeal of farm laws, made a strong statement today by organising a blood donation camp at the Tikri border.

Amid growing support from unions and Opposition parties for tomorrow's "Bharat Bandh" call, some services could get affected in Delhi - now the epicentre of farmers' protests - and the rest of the country. The farmers have called for a "peaceful" nationwide shutdown on December 8, a day ahead of the sixth round of talks with the government for repe...

Taking a dig at the BJP over its oldest ally Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) breaking ties with it on the farm bills issue, senior Congress leader Kapil Sibal on Thursday said the BJP's alliance politics was "falling apart" over legislations and the ruling NDA has turned into a "non-democratic alliance".

The life of Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) Chairman Dr K Sivan, the rocket scientist who spearheaded India's latest moon mission, is a rags-to-riches story. Son of a marginal farmer, he didn't get to wear sandals until he was in college.

Urban farming startups are trying to help people make the most of unused space in rooftops and balconies.

Establishing a human colony on the Moon and travelling to Mars has been the stuff of dreams since the dawn of the space age.

Even the smallest nations benefit from access to space technology, for example, improving farming and providing better understanding of oceans, weather and climactic changes.

The US space agency NASA has funded researchers to find out how to recycle human excreta into food that can help astronauts sustain on deeper space missions, including Mars.

Astronauts are growing vegetables in an experimental greenhouse named 'Lada' aboard the International Space Station (ISS) that are safe to eat.

Rising wealth due to a rally in agricultural crop prices, a jump in farm loan disbursement at more favourable interest rates and larger houses with space for storage are giving millions of farmers the freedom to decide when to sell their harvest.
