A veteran of three previous missions, Kelly
was selected in November 2012 for a
special year-long mission to the
International Space Station, which began in

Renaissance scientists who drew upon the works
of Greek thinkers such as Hero of Alexandria.
• ________ are considered the foundations of
modern mechanisms.
• +5 for each example of the above.
15. Q7. ID X
• X is a disease whose symptoms include frequent
urination, increased thirst and increased hunger. Indian
physicians around 1500 BCE first identified the disease
and classified it as ‘madhumeha’ . Its modern name X
or "to pass through" was first used in 230 BCE by the
Greek Apollonius of Memphis.
• The 1989 "St. Vincent Declaration" was the result of
international efforts to improve the care accorded to
those with X .
• The testing for X has changed over the years. It has
moved from investigating the properties of a
Newtonian Fluid to those of a Non- Newtonian Fluid.
23. Q11. To which family does Eve belong
?
• This is Eve
• Eve wrote her
mother’s biography
• Eve is not a scientist
but the rest of her
family is .
• Eve’s family is full of
overachievers.
• We’re all a bit like Eve.
25. Q12. What monikers ?
• Mrs. Tessy Thomas hails from Alappuzha and
born on April 1963, Kerala. She was born to a
small-businessman father and a homemaker
mother and did her engineering graduation
from Government Engineering College,
Thrissur. She grew up near a rocket launching
station and says her fascination with rockets
and missiles began then. She also has an
M.Tech in Guided Missile from the Institute of
Armament Technology, Pune (now known as
the Defence Institute of Advanced
Technology).
• She was appointed as director for the
_________ project and conferred the Lal
Bahadur Shastri National Award for her
outstanding contribution for making India
self-reliant in its own defence.
• This has led to her gaining two monikers from
the Indian media.
27. Q13. X and Y ?
• M5 Industries (M5i) is a special effects company located in San
Francisco, California best known as the working lab of ______. M5
once produced special effects props for commercials and film, stop
motion animation, and animatronic puppets, such as those seen in
James and the Giant Peach and The Nightmare Before Christmas.
They also extend into prototype development and various display
projects.
• The company's name was suggested by X . He intended to suggest
the name of either the branch of the British secret service which
built gadgets in James Bond fiction (Q Branch) or British secret
service itself (MI6), but was mistaken as to the correct name, and
suggested M5. X alleges that Y never paid him the promised $50
prize for having his suggestion selected.
31. Q.15 X and Y ?
• X was invented by Paul C. Lauterbur in
September 1971; he published the theory
behind it in March 1973.
• Due to mass hysteria present in the 70s
regarding ________ the name of the process
had to be changed to Y .
• Paul C. Lauterbur received the Nobel Prize in
medicine for this in 2003.
33. Q.16 ID
• He is an English-born
American theoretical
physicist and
mathematician, known
for his work in quantum
electrodynamics, solid-
state physics, astronomy
and nuclear engineering.
• His name has been in
the news recently due to
some ‘xeno’ affairs.

• _____________ was an American theoretical physicist, astronomer and
mountaineer. As a scientist, he carried out research into star formation, plasma
physics, and in 1946, conceived the idea of telescopes operating in outer space.
• _______ research centered on the interstellar medium, to which he brought a
deep understanding of plasma physics. In the 1930s and 1940s, he was among the
first to recognize star formation as an ongoing contemporary process. His
monographs, "Diffuse Matter in Space" (1968) and "Physical Processes in the
Interstellar Medium" (1978) consolidated decades of work, and themselves
became the standard texts for some decades more.
• He was the founding director of Project Matterhorn, Princeton University's
pioneering program in controlled thermonuclear research, renamed in 1961 as
Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory.

• The X Y is the maximum mass of a stable white dwarf star.
The Y was first indicated in papers published by Wilhelm
Anderson and E. C. Stoner, and was named after X, who
independently discovered and improved upon the accuracy
of the calculation in 1930, at the age of 19. This limit was
initially ignored by the community of scientists because
such a limit would logically require the existence of black
holes, which were considered a scientific impossibility at
the time.
• The current accepted value is about 2.765 X 1030 kg.

• Objects observed in deep space (extragalactic space, 10
megaparsecs (Mpc) or more) are found to have a Doppler
shift interpretable as relative velocity away from Earth;
• This Doppler-shift-measured velocity, of various galaxies
receding from the Earth, is approximately proportional to
their distance from the Earth for galaxies up to a few
hundred megaparsecs away.
