⚜️Skyroot Aerospace successfully conducted a test firing of the Stage-2 propulsion system, named Kalam-250, of the Vikram-1 space launch vehicle.
⚜️Stage 2 is crucial for propelling the launch vehicle from the atmospheric phase to outer space.
⚜️The Kalam-250 utilizes high-strength carbon composite materials and a solid fuel system with an Ethylene-Propylene-Diene terpolymers (EPDM) Thermal Protection System (TPS).
⚜️It also features a carbon ablative flex nozzle and high-precision electro-mechanical actuators for thrust vector control.

News: In a historic move, the Kerala Kalamandalam, a deemed university for arts and culture, has lifted gender restrictions to learn Mohiniyattam
Mohiniyattam:
⚜️ It is an Indian classical dance form that evolved in the state of Kerala.
⚜️ History and Evolution: Its roots date back to the age-old Sanskrit Hindu text on performing arts called ‘NatyaShastra’.
⚜️It is used to be performed by Devadasis (temple dancers) in temples during the rule of the Chera kings from 9 to 12 C.E.
⚜️It is conventionally a solo dance performed by female artists. It adheres to the Lasya type that showcases a more graceful, gentle and feminine form of
dancing.
⚜️ It emotes a play through dancing and singing, where the song is customarily in Manipravala, which is a mix of Sanskrit and Malayalam language.
⚜️ The hand gestures, 24 in number, are mainly adopted from ‘Hastha Lakshana Deepika’, a text followed by Kathakali
