The legend of Lilavati

The name Lilavati is familiar to us as the famous mathematics text of Bhaskaracharya of the 12th century. it is also known for its literary value. Here we try to explain the truth of the legend associated with the name. There is no written record anywhere of the episode of the wedding of the daughter of Bhaskaracharya. According to historians, the story must have crept in from a Jaina text during translation in the 16th century.

Title :

SATELLITE DATA VISUALIZATION "Using advanced data visualization software different classes of satellites are visualized using real time data and simulation. ISS, GPS Constellation, Visible and weather satellites in Low Earth orbit, Geo stationary and synchronous satellites are few of the bodies visualized. Indian satellites such as GSAT, IRNSS orbits too can be seen in this video. Introduction to Two Line Element (TLE) format is provided. It is shown how the data so obtained is used in planetary scale analysis and in providing actionable insights for stakeholders."
