India Nears Human Spaceflight Goal with Successful Gaganyaan Parachute Drop
India achieved a major step toward its first human spaceflight as ISRO successfully tested the Gaganyaan capsule’s parachute system. Dropped from a 2.5 km altitude, the 7.2-tonne dummy module deployed its 10 chutes flawlessly, ensuring a safe descent even under off-nominal conditions. This success validates a key safety system for crewed missions...

Scientists Create Bullet-Proof Fiber Stronger and Thinner Than Kevlar
Researchers have created a new fiber that surpasses Kevlar in bullet-stopping power while being much thinner. Made by aligning advanced aramid chains with carbon nanotubes, the material absorbs over twice as much energy as previous record-holding fibers. The breakthrough could lead to lighter, stronger armor for military, law enforcement and person...
