An Indian Railways train crossing the paddy fields of Ambari with Mt. Kanchenjunga in the backdrop!
You don't have to travel all the way to Mt. Fuji, Japan , for a breathtaking view like this. It's right here near Siliguri City!
It's a scenic North Bengal moment where railway journeys meet majestic Himalayan views.
Just 13 km from Siliguri City and 3 km from
Ambari

Big Ship, Deep Discoveries!
India is gearing up for a new chapter in ocean exploration with ORV Sagar Manthan, an indigenous ocean research vessel being built by the National Centre for Polar and Ocean Research (@ncaor_goa), under the @moesgoi.
Designed to advance deep-sea exploration, the vessel will strengthen India's ocean research capabilities, deepen our understanding of climate and ocean systems, and showcase the country's growing expertise in indigenous maritime technology.
A major leap towards self-reliance and new frontiers in ocean science!

A low power all-sky camera tested in Antarctica
A recent study by NCPOR scientists at Bharati Research Station, Antarctica, presents the testing of a compact, low-power Raspberry Pi-based all-sky camera.
During the austral winter of 2024, the system collected 63 nights of observations and recorded five auroral events alongside a conventional all-sky camera, demonstrating its potential for capturing prominent auroral structures and their evolution.

The Archimedes screw is a device that can lift water from a lower level to a higher level using a rotating spiral inside a tube. It is one of the oldest and simplest machines for moving fluids. It was named after the Greek mathematician and inventor Archimedes, who described it in his works. However, some evidence suggests that the device was already used in ancient Egypt before Archimedes’ time.
The Archimedes screw has many applications in history and modern times. It was used to irrigate fields, drain water from mines and ships, and power mills and fountains. It is also a possible way to generate electricity from flowing water or air.

Remembering Dr. Sálim Ali – The Birdman of India | 130th Birth Anniversary
Honouring the legendary ornithologist whose pioneering work transformed the understanding of India’s rich avian diversity.
Dr. Sálim Ali shared a remarkable association with the Bombay Natural History Society (BNHS), serving as its first Indian Honorary Secretary and later as President. His contributions strengthened ornithological research, bird documentation and wildlife conservation in India.
Through extensive bird surveys and landmark publications such as The Book of Indian Birds, he inspired generations to explore, understand and protect the natural world.
A passionate advocate for habitat conservation, his efforts helped shape India’s modern wildlife conservation movement.
On his 130th Birth Anniversary, BNHS pays tribute to his extraordinary legacy and enduring contribution to ornithology and nature conservation.
His legacy continues to inspire generations to observe, understand and conserve nature.

From Arctic Ice to Indian Rains
Can changes in Arctic sea ice influence India’s monsoon? A new NCPOR study explores how sea-ice loss in the Barents–Kara Sea may alter atmospheric circulation over Eurasia, potentially contributing to increased early monsoon rainfall over northwest India.
A reminder of how interconnected Earth’s climate system is.

Advancing India’s deep-ocean exploration and marine research capabilities! 🌊
Dr. Srinivasa Kumar Tummala (@tummalasrini), Secretary, Ministry of Earth Sciences (@moesgoi), along with the Director, @MoesNiot, visited L&T Shipyard at Kattupalli, Tamil Nadu, to review the progress of dry dock activities of the MoES-NIOT research vessel Sagar Manjusha.
Dr. Tummala also witnessed the ongoing unmanned trials of the human submersible MATSYA6000, assessing its floatation, submerged stability, ballast systems and various subcomponents. The vehicle successfully completed the tests as per the prescribed test protocol, paving the way for the next phase of testing.
These milestones strengthen India’s indigenous capabilities in deep-sea exploration and advance the vision of exploring the depths of our oceans.

A pair of doves has built a nest within the bamboo framework of the Durga Puja pandal of Sukanta Smriti Sangha in Chinsurah, Hooghly. There are eggs in the nest.
Even though the Puja festivities are over, the organisers have decided not to dismantle that section of the pandal, keeping the bird in mind. They will wait until the eggs hatch, the chicks grow up, and learn to fly before taking it down.
Your worship has truly found its fulfilment.

Happy 93rd birthday to Amartya Sen.
He was awarded the 1998 prize in economic sciences "for his contributions to welfare economics."
Sen was born in Santiniketan, Bengal, in India and attended a school founded by another Nobel Prize laureate - Rabindranath Tagore.
