Cameras**: Tesla vehicles are equipped with multiple cameras positioned around the vehicle to provide a 360-degree view of the surroundings. These cameras capture high-resolution images, which are processed by onboard computers to identify objects, lane markings, traffic signs, and other relevant informationin. 2. **Radar**: Tesla vehicles also use radar sensors to detect objects at longer distances and in adverse weather conditions such as fog or heavy rain. Radar can penetrate through obstacles and provide additional depth information, complementing the data from cameras. 3. **Ultrasonic Sensors**: Ultrasonic sensors are positioned around the vehicle to detect nearby objects, especially at low speeds or during parking maneuvers. These sensors provide close-range detection and help prevent collisions with obstacles such as curbs, walls, or other vehicles. 4. **Advanced Software Algorithms**: The data from cameras, radar, and ultrasonic sensors are processed by sophisticated softw...
Halo-Orbit Insertion (HOI) of its solar observatory spacecraft, Aditya-L1 was accomplished at 16.00 Hrs (approx) on January 6, 2024 (IST). The final phase of the maneuver involved firing of control engines for a short duration. The orbit of Aditya-L1 spacecraft is a periodic Halo orbit which is located roughly 1.5 million km from earth on the continuously moving Sun โ Earth line with an orbital period of about 177.86 earth days. This Halo orbit is a periodic, three-dimensional orbit at L1 involving Sun, Earth and a spacecraft. This specific halo orbit is selected to ensure a mission lifetime of 5 years, minimising station-keeping manoeuvres and thus fuel consumption and ensuring a continuous, unobstructed view of sun. The Aditya-L1 mission is an Indian solar observatory at Lagrangian point L1 for โObserving and understanding the chromospheric and coronal dynamics of the Sunโ in a continuous manner. Placing the Aditya-L1 in a halo orbit around L1 point has advantages as compared to...
A massive asteroid the size of a skyscraper will pass close by Earth on Friday, February 2. The size of the harmless space rock is estimated to be between 690 and 1,575 feet (210 and 480 meters) across, according to NASAโs Center for Near Earth Object Studies. This means that the asteroid could be similar in size to the Empire State Building in New York or Chicagoโs Willis Tower. The asteroid will pass within 1.7 million miles or 2.7 million km of Earth. However, its close proximity is of the least concern. The US space agency said the asteroid is a harmless fly-by as it will pass almost seven times the distance from Earth to the moon, according to the Associated Press. NASA confirmed that a 210-foot asteroid is hurtling towards Earth and is set to be a close call based on the expected trajectory. NASA estimates that the asteroid, which is called 2023 KW2, is the size of a large Boeing 747 airplane. It is expected to reach its closest distance to Earth at 4.5 million kilometers away. W...
