Pier Sight is now among the first private companies in India to fly an SCL Mohali #semiconductor chip in their spacecraft electronics.

Pier Sight is an Indian space startup that is building the world's first constellation of SAR+AIS sats dedicated to persistent ocean surveillance.

The watchdog + voltage supervisor IC, by SCL, is now on Varuna 2.0's on-board computer and payload controller. And, has already cleared thermal testing.

It's space-grade screened, matches the imported parts we benchmarked against, and costs significantly less.

Once validated in orbit, this chip earns space heritage, building confidence for Indian #startups to adopt Indian components, and opening the door for foreign space companies to do the same. #aatmarnirbharbharat

I personally feel that we must make special arrangements for PM's security. As per the current threat assessments, drones and sniper guns have come in. So, we need to review his security and strengthen it, rather than downsizing it. I feel this is not right. This is not in the interest of the nation.

🇮🇷⚡🇭🇳🇨🇳 Iran Seizes Chinese-Operated Floating Armory in Hormuz Strait

Iran has seized the vessel HUI CHUAN in the strategic Strait of Hormuz. The ship, sailing under a Honduran flag, is identified as a Chinese-operated 'floating armory' used by private security firms to store weapons for commercial vessels.

The vessel was actively providing armed escorts for commercial shipping against regional threats and had been anchored in the Gulf of Oman for a month.

The seizure coincides with a summit between the US and Chinese leaders where they agreed the strait must remain open. #Geopolitics
