Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) launches PSLV C-44

Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) launches PSLV C-44 with Microsat R, a military application satellite, and Kalamsat, a 10cm cubesat made by students, at 11.37pm on Thursday from the first launch pad at Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota.
This is first flight with a new variant of PSLV called PSLV-DL with two strap-ons, each carrying 12.2-tonne of solid propellent.
The launch is PSLV’s 46th flight which injected a 740kg imaging satellite for military applications into orbit with precision.
Congratulating the team for the successful mission, Isro chairman K Sivan said this was the first that PSLV was “flown to the lowest orbit.”
PS4 is the smallest of the stages in size with a height of 2.5m and a diameter of 1.34m carrying 1.6 tonne propellent. With two liquid engines applying a thrust of 7.6kN each, PS4 is responsible for the correct injection of the payloads into their respective desired orbits.

Must take below precautions while using mobile phone

Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for mobile phones: Specific absorption rate (SAR) is a measure for the energy absorbed by the body. Its measure is Watt per kilogram (W/kg). Mobile communication uses high frequency electromagnetic fields during information transmission. When talking to someone on a mobile phone, the energy of these fields is partly absorbed in the head. If a headset is used and the mobile phone is, for example, put in one’s pocket, the energy is absorbed by the body part close to the mobile phone. SAR must not exceed 2 Watts per kilogram: In order to avoid adverse health effects, the specific absorption rate of a mobile phone must not exceed 2 Watts per kilogram. Since 1998 this value is recommended as a limit by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). The German Commission on Radiological Protection (SSK) and the European Commission agreed in 1998 and 1999. European standardisation bodies developed standards to control compl...
