🛡️ 2008 crisis shaped India's finance game

The global financial crisis, originating in the US housing market, severely impacted India's economy. The Sensex dropped 37.9% in 2008, and GDP growth slowed to 6.7% in 2008-09. Despite this, India's banking system largely held up due to cautious integration and safeguards. The RBI cut rates significantly, and the government offered fiscal support during this time. Since then, India has strengthened its financial resolution frameworks, like the IBC enacted in 2016. 📈

🛡️ Doval recalls mission where Chinese captured his agents

National Security Advisor Ajit Doval shared a personal story about a near-career-ending intelligence mission in Sikkim. While he was in his 20s, he led a team near the China border for intelligence gathering during the state's integration process. The team vanished for 15 days, and Doval later learned they were captured by the Chinese army. Although an inquiry was launched, he received a clean chit due to errors in the provided maps. This experience led him to adopt guiding principles for life, as advised by a Sherpa. 🧭

⛰️ NSA Doval on near-career-ending China mission 😬

National Security Advisor Ajit Doval shared a harrowing memory from his early intelligence days concerning a mission near the China border. The incident took place while Doval was posted in Sikkim, which was integrating into India around that time.

🗑️ Space junk is piling up in orbit 🛰️

The amount of space debris orbiting Earth is dangerously increasing due to discarded satellites and rocket stages. According to the Space Debris Foundation, there are over 50,000 objects larger than 10 cm floating around in Low Earth Orbit. This junk poses a collision risk to future orbital projects, potentially disrupting missions and driving up costs. Currently, there are no binding international laws for cleanup, despite some countries having internal guidelines. Efforts like ESA's 2029 mission and ISRO's experiments are starting to address this massive issue.

⚛️ Spooky action confirmed in Higgs decay ⚛️

ATLAS physicists found strong evidence that Z boson pairs from Higgs decays exhibit entangled spin states. This research was conducted by the ATLAS Collaboration at CERN using proton collisions from LHC Runs 2 and 3. The strongest analysis rejected a nonentangled state at 4.7 sigma, building on prior top quark entanglement studies. This result shows quantum coherence in massive, short-lived particles at electroweak energies. The findings open new avenues to rigorously test the established Standard Model of particle physics.
