A big day for space weather, with the BBC reporting that a Mexico-to-USA flight in October experienced a 'sudden drop in altitude', likely caused by *solar energetic particles* from the Sun. Here is an explanation and some thoughts as a solar astrophysicist (a thread): 1/8

Public memory is short. When I shifted to delhi in 1997 we had a different kind of pollution menace in Delhi. Vehicular Pollution. Eyes used to burn like hell. Then the Supreme Court stepped in and in MC Mehta’s case on 28.7.1998 directed that all Delhi buses have to go CNG

It's Thanksgiving in the US, and I can never quite get over the fact that the Turkey is not from Turkey, but is native to North America In fact the bird got its name from the similar looking guinea fowl which Turkish traders brought to Europe. When the settlers went to America,

This. Lived in Delhi my entire life & barely felt the impact of rising AQI. Spent just one year in a place where the avg. AQI is 4, & the difference is stark. The distinct burning smell of rubber is a constant - why have we normalised this? We’re all just frogs in boiling water.

I am shocked to find a deep fake video of myself promoting some unscientific & useless remedy! We need an urgent strategy to fight mis & disinformation, especially in the era of #AI & deep fakes. https://t.co/F7t3OvV0gk @WHO @MoHFW_INDIA @GoI_MeitY @CDSCO_INDIA_INF @ICMRDELHI

Ppl r complaining abt AQI of Delhi. Actually most of the cities r bad. Hwevr, dnt complain. It’s a mission by various state n central govt to make us stronger. After a few mutations and generation (by 2047), we Indians will hv the strongest 🫁 n 💓 in the 🌍. Wait n watch.

Effectively, there is NO remedy available to any elected Government if the Governor stifles it at the behest of the Centre. Net result is that every elected Government of a State, if not an ally of Modi, will be turned into Kejriwal Government. It is irrelevant now whether it is

I’ve said a lot about the blatant misuse of reference powers that have brought us this “Opinion”, but here’s one more thing: through this, the SC has, primarily, vastly increased its own political power. Because what will happen now is that states whose bills are being stalled +
