India’s space agency has scheduled its next mission Aditya-L1, which would include solar research, after the success of the Chandrayaan-3 moon landing.

This week, as scientists and crew celebrated the successful completion of the moon mission, ISRO announced to reporters at its satellite command center that the Aditya-L1, India’s first space observatory for solar research, is getting ready for launch at the country’s main spaceport in Sriharikota.

ISRO chairman S. Somanath has said, “We are planning to launch in the first week of September.”

What plans does Aditya-L1 have?

The spacecraft is India’s first solar probe in orbit, and its name comes from the Hindi word for the sun. The “auroras” observed from Earth are really caused by solar winds, which scientists want to learn more about.

In the long run, the mission’s data might provide light on how the sun affects Earth’s climate.

To better understand where solar wind comes from, scientists have recently reported that the European Space Agency/NASA Solar Orbiter spacecraft has discovered multiple very modest jets of charged particles emitted intermittently from the corona, the sun’s outer atmosphere.

What is its range?

The PSLV is India’s most powerful launch vehicle, and it will carry the Aditya-L1 spacecraft on its 1.5 million kilometer journey to the sun’s atmosphere in roughly four months.

The spaceship will save fuel by traveling to a “parking lot” in space, where items prefer to remain due to balancing gravitational pulls.

The Italian-French mathematician Joseph-Louis Lagrange is honored by the naming of these locations as Lagrange Points.

What is the price tag for this endeavor?

The budget for the Aditya-L1 mission was approved in 2019 at about Rs. 380 crore (about $46 million). There has been no confirmed price increase from ISRO.

Executives and planners believe India’s newly privatized space sector would benefit from the Indian Space Agency’s (ISRO) reputation for cost competitiveness in space engineering.

Costing close to Rs. 620 crores (almost $75 million), the Chandrayaan-3 mission successfully landed a spacecraft on the lunar south pole.

Just days after the Meta-owned messaging network added functionality for transmitting high-resolution pictures, the WhatsApp HD video sharing feature has began trickling out to users on Android. All movies transmitted using WhatsApp were previously compressed, resulting in inferior quality for the receiver. The messaging software will now provide users the option to share selected films in high definition, which has clear advantages in terms of quicker file delivery and cheaper bandwidth and storage consumption.

An HD indicator appears at the top of the screen when choosing a video to share with contacts in the latest version of WhatsApp for Android (2.23.17.74), which started rolling out on Thursday. By default, WhatsApp only supports sending and receiving movies at 480p, but when this is toggled to “on,” the app will send and receive films in 720p.

After upgrading to the most recent version of WhatsApp for Android, the functionality became accessible on the phones of the Gadgets 360 team. There has been no announcement on when the feature, which is now under beta testing, would become available to users on the stable version of WhatsApp for iOS.

It’s important to note that sending a video at a higher quality requires the user to change the option each time. By default, the app will only deliver movies at a “standard” quality of 480p, which is very low-resolution in comparison to today’s smartphones with full-HD and quad-HD screens. This was probably done to prevent WhatsApp media from accumulating to an unmanageable size on a user’s phone.

After installing the most recent version of WhatsApp for Android, you may follow these instructions to transmit a high-definition video. Remember that it’s possible the function won’t be accessible to you.

WhatsApp’s HD video-sending instructions

Start a new WhatsApp conversation, then go to the attachment icon > Gallery.

To see a preview of the video before sending it, find it and touch on it.

You may access HD mode by clicking the icon that appears to the left of the sticker, text, and drawing tools at the top of the screen.

Choose the higher HD resolution, take note of the larger file size, and then press the Done button.

After making any necessary adjustments, hit the share button in the lower right.

You may now send photos and videos to other WhatsApp users that can only be seen once, and the app’s developers are working on an update to the user interface to make sending these messages even simpler. WABetaInfo, a feature tracker for WhatsApp, claims that soon the app would let users easily share a picture or video from their camera roll with only a few clicks. The fact that WhatsApp is developing support for sending various message kinds as view-once messages implies that it may replace traditional methods of sending such communications.

According to a report by WABetaInfo, the newest version of WhatsApp beta contains a feature that will allow users to swiftly send a view-once message by clicking and holding the send button instead of touching the “1” symbol in the caption box when transmitting an image or video. Above the send button, users will see a drop-down menu with only one option: Send as view once.

This functionality, which was discovered on the Android 2.23.18.3 beta version of WhatsApp, is not yet available for testing on the most recent beta versions of the program for iOS and Android. The upgrade will likely be sent to beta testers first, before being pushed out to the general public by the corporation. Currently, only photos and videos may be sent as view-once messages; GIFs are not allowed.

If you have opted in to receive beta updates, you will see a notification pop up above the send button in WhatsApp’s image/video sending preview once the functionality is released to beta testers. Press and hold to send as a view once message shows. WABetaInfo suggests following this with the choice to Send as view once.

The “1” symbol in the caption area may be removed if the feature tracker is correct and WhatsApp’s view once feature is updated to the new design. Previous reports have indicated that the corporation is aiming to expand view-once message capability to include audio (voice notes) and text messages.

A recent rumor claims that WhatsApp has started testing a new feature that would let users create stickers using AI. Stickers may be created on the spot when users enter phrases like “cat laughing on a skateboard” into the app’s prompt box. The feature tracker also reveals that WhatsApp Web now supports password protection for user conversations.

The Chandrayaan 3 Lander ‘Vikram’ and rover ‘Pragyan’ are set to touch down on the Lunar surface. They will have their work cut out for them, and this is what they will do once they have arrived to Earth’s sole natural satellite.

The Chandrayaan 3 Lander may land on the moon at a designated spot, releasing the Rover to explore the area while collecting samples for an on-the-spot chemical analysis.

The Chandrayaan 3 Both the Lander and the Rover deliver scientific payloads to the moon’s surface for use in conducting research. The primary goal of the Propulsion Module (PM) was to transport the Lander Module (LM) from the point of injection by the launch vehicle to the final lunar 100 km circular polar orbit and then detach the LM from the PM.

In addition, the PM carries a research payload called the Spectro-polarimetry of Habitable Planet Earth (SHAPE) payload, which will analyze spectral and Polari metric data of Earth from a lunar orbit.

Following are the major specifications of the Chandrayaan 3 lander and rover

Including Rover, the lander weighs a total of 1749.86 kg.

its mission duration is one Lunar day (14 Earth days).

It has four separate scientific payloads.

The near-surface plasma (ions and electrons) density and its variations over time will be measured by the Radio Anatomy of Moon Bound Hypersensitive Ionosphere and Atmosphere (RAMBHA) mission.

The thermal characteristics of the lunar surface close to the polar zone will be measured by the Chandra Surface Thermophysical Experiment (ChaSTE).

Measurements from the Instrument for Lunar Seismic Activity (ILSA) will be used to determine the composition of the lunar crust and mantle around the landing site.

To learn more about the Moon and its orbit, NASA has developed a passive experiment called the Laser Retroreflector Array (LRA).

In addition to the Lander Hazard Detection & Avoidance Camera, the LRA will contain a total of seven sensors.

The six components of a Lander are the Lander leg, the Rover ramp (primary and secondary), the Rover, the Integrated Landing System Assembly, the Rambha and Chaste payloads, the Umbilical connection protection mechanism, and the X- Band antenna Rover.

Quantitative and qualitative elemental analysis using a Laser Induced Breakdown Spectrometer (LIBS) Propulsion Module

To better comprehend the lunar surface, we may use LIBS to determine its chemical composition and, by extension, its mineralogical composition.

The Alpha Particle X-ray Spectrometer (APXS) will analyze the lunar soil and rocks around the landing site to identify their elemental makeup (including magnesium, aluminum, silicon, potassium, calcium, titanium, and iron).

To better prepare the hundreds of thousands of businesses that use VMware’s cloud infrastructure for the age of generative AI, VMware Inc. (NYSE: VMW) and NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA) today announced the extension of their strategic relationship.

With the help of NVIDIA and VMware’s Private AI Foundation, businesses will be able to deploy generative AI applications like chatbots, virtual assistants, search engines, and summarization tools.  The platform will be a turnkey AI-optimized solution based on VMware Cloud Foundation and including NVIDIA accelerated compute and generative AI software.

VMware CEO Raghu Raghuram recently said, “Generative AI and multi-cloud are the perfect match.” “Client data resides in the cloud, on the edge, and in the customer’s own data centers. Working with NVIDIA, we’ll alleviate companies’ worries about data privacy, security, and control so that they may safely operate generative AI workloads in close proximity to their data.

According to NVIDIA CEO and founder Jensen Huang: “Enterprises everywhere are racing to integrate generative AI into their businesses.” Using their own data and bespoke applications, hundreds of thousands of clients in industries like as finance, healthcare, manufacturing, and more will have access to the whole stack of software and computing that our company and VMware are now collaborating on.

Full-Stack Computing to Supercharge Generative AI

Companies want to speed up the time it takes to reap the advantages of generative AI applications by simplifying the process of creating, testing, and releasing them. McKinsey predicts that generative AI might boost global GDP by as much as $4.4 trillion per year.(1)

Businesses can take advantage of this capability with VMware Private AI Foundation and NVIDIA by tailoring large language models, creating more secure and private models for internal use, providing generative AI as a service to their users, and safely running large-scale inference workloads.

With the platform’s built-in AI technologies, businesses will be able to efficiently use validated models based on their own data. The platform will be based on NVIDIA AI Enterprise and VMware Cloud Foundation, and its intended advantages would include:

With an architecture that protects sensitive information and allows only authorized users access, businesses will be able to deploy AI services close to their data without worrying about compromising security.

From NVIDIA NeMoTM through Llama 2 and beyond, as well as on major OEM hardware configurations and, in the future, on public cloud and service provider solutions, businesses will have a broad variety of options for building and running their models.

NVIDIA-accelerated infrastructure has been shown in recent industry benchmarks to achieve performance levels comparable to, and in some instances even higher than, bare metal.

In order to expedite the fine-tuning and deployment of generative AI models, GPU scaling improvements in virtualized settings will allow AI workloads to scale over up to 16 vGPUs/GPUs in a single virtual machine and across several nodes.

In order to save expenses, we will pool all of our computing resources (CPUs, GPUs, and DPUs) and use them as effectively as possible to benefit all of our teams.

In order to facilitate direct I/O transfer from storage to GPUs without involving the CPU, VMware vSAN Express Storage Architecture will provide performance-optimized NVMe storage and enable GPUDirect® storage via RDMA.

To further facilitate the execution of multi-GPU models without inter-GPU bottlenecks, vSphere has been deeply integrated with NVIDIA’s NVSwitchTM technology.

Time to Value and Rapid Deployment are Made Possible by the vSphere Deep Learning VM Images and Image Repository, which provide a solid turnkey solution image with pre-installed frameworks and performance-optimized libraries.

Included in NVIDIA AI Enterprise, the platform’s operating system, is the NVIDIA NeMo cloud-native framework, which facilitates the creation, personalization, and remote deployment of generative AI models by businesses of any size. NeMo provides businesses with a simple, inexpensive, and quick solution to implement generative AI by combining customisation frameworks, guardrail toolkits, data curation tools, and pretrained models.

TensorRT for Large Language Models (TRT-LLM) speeds and improves inference performance on the most recent LLMs on NVIDIA GPUs, therefore NeMo relies on it when implementing generative AI in production. Businesses will be able to use their own data in conjunction with NeMo and VMware’s hybrid cloud architecture to create and operate their own generative AI models.

At VMware Explore 2023, NVIDIA and VMware will showcase how corporate developers can leverage the NVIDIA AI Workbench to remotely configure and deploy production-grade generative AI in VMware systems using community models like Llama 2 from Hugging Face. The VMware Private AI Foundation has widespread ecosystem support. Dell Technologies, HPE, and Lenovo will be among the first to offer systems that supercharge enterprise LLM customization and inference workloads with NVIDIA L40S GPUs, NVIDIA BlueField®-3 DPUs, and NVIDIA ConnectX®-7 SmartNICs, all of which are supported by the NVIDIA VMware Private AI Foundation with NVIDIA.

When compared to the NVIDIA A100 Tensor Core GPU, the NVIDIA L40S GPU delivers up to 1.2x faster generative AI inference performance and up to 1.7x faster training performance.

Accelerating, offloading, and isolating the massive computing load of cloud-native AI services like virtualization, networking, storage, and security is made possible by NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPUs.

Some of the most demanding AI workloads in the world will benefit greatly from the intelligent, accelerated networking provided by NVIDIA ConnectX-7 SmartNICs in the data center.

VMware and NVIDIA’s 10-year cooperation continues with the launch of the VMware Private AI Foundation. Through their collaborative engineering efforts, VMware’s cloud infrastructure is now capable of running NVIDIA AI Enterprise at bare-metal levels of performance. In addition, VMware Cloud Foundation’s resource management and infrastructure flexibility are a win-win for both companies’ respective clients.

WhatsApp is developing text formatting features that would be useful for developers. According to rumors there are three new formatting options have reportedly been added to the most current beta version of WhatsApp for Desktop. These enhancements make it simpler for WhatsApp users to create, send, and decipher codes. Future versions of Android and iOS may support the tools as well. Sharing high-definition photos on WhatsApp has just been made available to everyone on the main channel.

WhatsApp is reportedly developing three new text formatting capabilities that will make it simpler to understand and share technical codes on the network, as reported by WABetaInfo, which monitors the development. In order to decipher technical codes, WhatsApp may soon have a “Code Block” function, according to the article. Software engineers, programmers, and others may find it useful to trade little bits of code through the app.

Meanwhile, the “Quote” function is said to be part of the new collection of tools. It’s been said that this new formatting option would make it easier for chat participants to return to earlier exchanges. According to the article, unlike the app’s existing quote text capability, this under-development quote text formatting tool would allow users to quote a particular area of a text and react to it directly.

The third app is said to let WhatsApp users compose lists of objects inside messages. A snapshot of the updated editor is included in the report.

However, the App has not yet announced a date for when all beta users will get access to these functionalities. The tools are currently in the beta testing phase of development. The messaging platform may provide the feature as part of a beta update before releasing it to the stable channel, or it may decide not to release the feature at all.

Sharing high-definition photos has just been made available on WhatsApp. Users on all platforms (Android, iOS, and desktop) will be able to send and receive high-resolution photographs in their conversations. A little ‘HD’ symbol will be appended to the photographs that have been delivered in HD quality. Meta has also revealed its imminent support for high-definition video.

The Fire Boltt Phoenix AMOLED smartwatch is the newest model in the lineup. The wearable tech has an AMOLED display and costs less than Rs. 2,500.
