Art vs AI

With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence, many artists and creative professionals are growing concerned. Just as the Industrial Revolution automated manual labor, AI now seems to be taking over intellectual and artistic work. From writing and research to art and learning, it’s quite agonizing to watch AI make even our minds complacent. Sure, AI offers the benefits of speed and efficiency. But if we start accepting vague reproductions of a lifetime’s work, it raises serious concerns about how we express perspectives. The key difference between human-made and AI-generated art lies in emotion . Every word, brushstroke, and musical note carries the weight of personal experience, cultural shifts, and societal narratives. Art isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about storytelling, struggle, and human connection. AI can be a useful tool, but it shouldn’t replace human artistry. It lacks the ability to feel, dream, or rebel —qualities that define great art. Instead of letting AI...

Another giant leap in Space technology

The privatization of space travel is moving at an incredible pace. Once dominated by government agencies like ROSCOSMOS NASA and ISRO, space exploration now sees private companies taking center stage. Boeing and SpaceX, in particular, have been pushing boundaries, making space travel seem more accessible than ever. It almost feels like the vast gap between Earth and the stars is shrinking, not just in distance but in technological advancements. One of the most anticipated missions in this new era is Boeing’s CST-100 Starliner, set to embark on its first-ever crewed flight under NASA’s Commercial Crew Program. After years of delays, this mission is crucial in proving that Starliner can stand alongside SpaceX’s Crew Dragon in safely transporting astronauts to the International Space Station. What makes this mission even more exciting is the presence of Sunita Williams, a seasoned astronaut with a remarkable history. She is set to make history once again as the first woman to fly on a ma...

Wishpers of good bye

The hallways feel different now—   quieter, as if they know we're leaving.   Laughter that once filled the air   now lingers only in memories,   like echoes of a song that’s almost faded.   Mornings used to bring familiar voices,   inside jokes, hurried footsteps,   plans made over coffee and late-night dreams.   Now, the silence settles in,   a quiet reminder that things are changing.   We mapped out our days together,   marked moments we thought would last forever.   But time has its own way of moving forward,   pulling us gently toward what’s next.   So I hold on to these memories,   folding them carefully like old letters,   knowing that even as we step away,   a part of us will always stay.   - Bharathi Senthilkumar 

consuming conceptions

A silent scream that’s louder than the violent ones A distant screen that seems to display all the mistakes I’ve ever committed.   A fatal scam the mind is fighting.   Drowned in a flood of expectations,   Flawed in the name of scars.   Beyond the highs and lows, maybe there is a field of high impedance.   Ignored to enjoy the company of meaningless compilations.   Toward the horizon where the mind might find peace!   ~ Bharathi

Guardians of the Coast: Protecting Olive Ridley Turtles on Chennai’s Shores

The olive ridley sea turtles (Lepidochelys olivacea) are a vital component of Chennai's coastal ecosystem, particularly along beaches from Tiruvanmiyur to Neelangarai. That's where this endangered species of turtles nest annually between January and April. These turtles contribute to marine biodiversity by regulating jellyfish populations, thus maintaining ecological balance.  The olive ridley turtles haven been facing a threatening situation at chennai while nesting for the past years. The pity situation is that over the years the threat to their lives and offsprings has only increased drastically. The nesting season has only began and already 350 dead turtles have washed ashore, marking the highest number in over two decades. The major causes of this is: Fishing Practices: The use of large nets often results in turtles being accidentally captured, leading to injuries or death.  Habitat Disturbance : Increased human activity on beaches, such as vandalism of nests and predati...

happy birthday professor

It all began with a book I couldn't understand. Its dense pages and complex equations sought to unravel the secrets of the universe, yet they only left my eight-year-old self bewildered. This was the "Theory of Everything," a concept far beyond my grasp at the time. But even in my confusion, one realization stuck with me: we, as humans, are tiny characters in a grand, cosmic play. Sensing my curiosity, my mom gifted me something truly magical: "George and the Big Bang." This book, and the series it belongs to, felt like the approachable child of the "Theory of Everything." To this day, it remains one of my most memorable birthday gifts. The series, penned by the brilliant scientist Stephen Hawking and his daughter Lucy, comprises six captivating sci-fi adventures of a young boy named George. From "George and the Secret Key to the Universe" to "George and the Ship of Time," each story whisked me away on thrilling explorations of the ...

Ozone Layer

 A shield of blue, protecting Earth from harmful lights   A delicate layer, on which our lives depend. The ozone layer encircles the earth like a celestial hue  But we have been so destructive  Piercing our armour all across the land We've made a hole in the sky, a wound that's only getting larger It's a  threat to life itself But hope endures, A chance to mend, to make things right. Just as our hearts may mend and heal, So too can Earth,  If we begin to be more considerate,  Using public transport and green transport  We can join hands to save our planet - Bharathi
