Solar powered Boat


Advantages of having a Solar Powered Boat:

1.    By introducing Solar System into the fishing boat we could thus save the battery life by inducing float charging when the boat is at ideal state. Which in term will help the user to save the battery from ageing.
2.    Savings on Diesel fuel costs, thus, the diesel saved can be used to run the boat for long duration thus reducing the dependability on diesel. 
3.    By Keeping the radio on all times and any worse case scenario can be avoided.
4.    Even if the battery gets affected, by adding a simple DC/AC converter, we can still use other devices directly from solar.
5.    Intelligent controller automatically allows the lights to switch ON/OFF on dusk-dawn if it's at pre-set mode. and indication helps the boat user to indentify the charge left in the battery and how many more hours he can run before he needs charging.

Important Function:

The system design to optimize the combination of panel size, number, rating, arrangement; charge controller rating; battery size, number, rating; motor rating was another challenge. The panel size and battery backup size had to be right to ensure that the system is effective.

The Solar panel will be fitted on top of the deck and it will be positioned in such a way that it does not cause any drag force or without compromising on normal operation or stability. The connection is given to Voltage regulator/ Charge Controller through which battery is charged and maintained and the stored energy is consumed while the navigation panel is in use. Inverter helps in the conversion of DC/AC and is supplied through protection system and finally connected to Navigational Panel.

Amelia Dyer , a devil who lived in disguise

Amelia Dyer is believed to have murdered hundreds of babies during the 19th Century. Her crimes led to one of the most sensational trials of the period and shone a spotlight on the Victorian practice of "baby farming". How did a seemingly respectable woman stoop to such cruelty? On 30 March 1896, a parcel weighted down with a brick was fished out of the River Thames in Reading. Inside, swaddled in layers of linen, newspaper and brown paper, was the partially decomposed body of baby Helena Fry. White tape had been wound around her neck, with a knot under the left ear. It was a gruesome discovery, but one which would lead detectives to unravel the crimes of one of the 19th Century's most notorious child killers. Born in 1837 to a shoemaker in a small village in Bristol, Dyer had endured a tough childhood in which she was the main carer for her mentally ill mother. As an adult, she became a nurse. But, rather than use her skills to care for people, she embarked o...

Consciousness Moves to Another Universe After Death

A book titled “ Biocentrism: How Life and Consciousness Are the Keys to Understanding the Nature of the Universe “, published in the USA, has stirred up the Internet because of the notion that  life does not end when the body dies and can last forever.  The author of this publication, scientist  Robert Lanza , has no doubts that this may be possible. Beyond time and space Lanza is an expert in  regenerative medicine  and scientific director at  Advanced Cell Technology Company . While he is known for his extensive research on  stem cells,  he was also famous for several successful experiments on  cloning endangered animal species. But not so long ago, the scientist turned his attention to  physics, quantum mechanics and astrophysics.  This explosive mixture has given birth to the new theory of  biocentrism , which the professor has been preaching ever since. The theory implies that  death simply does not exist....

Humanoid figure in sky

Zambian locals ran away in terror when they saw a strange human-like figure appear in the clouds above a shopping centre. The alleged apparition, which looked like a Dementor from the Harry Potter movies, was spotted above the Mukuba Mall in Kitwe. Photographs show a large humanoid head and torso, tailing into the sky and it is thought to have measured more than 100 metres (330ft) long.  The dense black shape looked like it was made from a different material from the clouds. From the angle of the photograph, it looks like the apparition was looking down on the shopping centre. The figure hung in the sky for about half an hour and some thought it was a manifestation of God.  A witness said: 'We were shocked to see images that looked like a human in the clouds for close to 30 minutes.  'Some started worshipping but others ran away. It was so strange.'
