Zink Mining 1500 yrs Ago |
Indians MINED ZINC over 1500 years ago in Zawar,
Mewar. The Industrial Revolution began way back, in countries all over the

Observatory |
 |
Maharaja
Jai Singh II, the great scholar-king who rebuilt a small observatory in 1725
CE. Names
of the big shots who worked at Ujjain- Aryabhata, Varahamihra, Bhaskara,
Brahmagupta, Vateshwara, Bhaskara the IInd. Ved Shala or Jantar Mantar in Ujjain is believed to be India’s first and foremost observatory. Indian astronomers believe that the first meridian or the Prime Meridian of Longitude (75° 47′ E) passes through Ujjain thus earning it the epithet, ‘Greenwich of India’. The Tropic of Cancer also passes through Ujjain making it most suitable for an observatory. This observatory, made by Raja Jaisingh of Amer, is among the five built by him in India, the others situated at Delhi, Jaipur, Mathura and Varanasi. The Jantar Mantar has all the constructional instruments which determine the positions of heavenly bodies in space. Kepler
could not possibly have made the observations of planetary orbital periods from
the method he offered as proof. This was a clear case of manufacturing ‘proofs’
from results. https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/travel/destinations/Jantar-Mantar-Ved-Shala/ps46838254.cms |
