Helium Weather balloon launched on March 3rd, 7:00am. As part of Mindkraft2k16 in Karunya University, Coimbatore

This project is one of the fourth successfully launched and tracked Helium weather balloon in Tamil nadu and first in Coimbatore region. It is one of the cheapest too, costing almost Rs18,000 for only making and testing, and made totally in-house. And the specialty is we had predicted the crashing site, one week prior to launch, which is one of kind in India, and recorded metrological data and had reached a height of 33km(120,000 feet) and had traveled approximately 65km.

Therefore, we have designed a radiosonde module with negligible risk of failure and cost effectiveness. We also use this module to measure and log the metrological data like the pressure, temperature, humidity, altitude and capture a picture of a particular locality.

            Thus our project is very useful for proving the lapse rate concept and observing high altitude weather data which is essential for predicting natural disasters and to understand and analyze the climatological and weather details of a particular region, thereby it plays a major role in determining the agricultural pattern .Moreover by knowing the wind speed and its flow of direction, the implementation of renewable energy resources like the wind mills etc. can be successfully done at the right areas.

Location: South East Asia

Power of compound intrest.

By
T alking about investing power, quite a few of us would have been involved in financial investments (i.e. deposits, mutual funds, shares, or other). We would have read about windfall gains made by investment gurus and conversely also heard/seen the major risks in equity investments . Let’s take a couple of big examples from the Indian IT space: Wipro and Infosys . The market enthusiasts would already know where I am leading this discussion to, and may want to skip the reading. But for the benefit of the general population, let’s understand how these companies fared since their inception for a shareholder . Case 1: Investing in Wipro What if you / your father could invest 100 shares of Wipro in the year 1980 and did nothing since then?

By
There have been numerous such companies that have given great returns to investors, like Reliance, Titan, Dr. Reddy Labs, etc. No one can predict which company would grow to such a huge levels before 30 years. Remember, for every Wipro like story, there are thousands of companies which has eroded investors wealth and become penny stocks.

Power Of Compound Interest Even if someone invested in the best company in the world, its basic human psychology to book profits when the stock prices increase so many fold.
