                             TRAVELING THROUGH TIME                                                                                                        
HI EVERYONE!So now my summer camp is over.Yesterday I came through [THE WEEK] magazine of 2017 June.Today I saw the website of NASA so actually I like to collect information of our peculiar universe.Some of my studies are-


🍀 HADEAN EON-

The HADEAN EON began when the earth had started to just form.It was the time nearly 4.5 billion years ago.At first there was just a cloud of gas & dust,and then the sun formed,and gradually the plants formed.



🎀 ARCHEAN EON-              
The ARCHEAN EON was the time when the earth's crust cooled enough to allow tectonic shifts.The Archean Eon began about 4 billion years ago with the formation of Earth's crust and extended to the start of the Proterozoic Eon 2.5 billion years ago; the latter is the second formal division of Precambrian time.










🍀 CENOZOIC EON-



The Cenozoic Era is the current geological era, covering the period from 66 million years ago to the present day. The Cenozoic is also known as the Age of Mammals, because of the large mammals that dominate it.








🎀  PROTEROZOIC EON-

The Proterozoic is a geological eon representing the time just before the proliferation of complex life on Earth.



 🍀 PHANEROZOIC EON-

The Phanerozoic Eon is the current geologic eon in the geologic time scale, and the one during which abundant animal and plant life has existed. It covers 541 million years to the present, and began with the Cambrian Period. It is divided in three parts-

1] Paleozoic eon- Cambrian,Ordovician,Silurian,Devonian,Carboniferous,Permian.

2] Mesozoic eon- Triassic,Jurassic,Cretaceous.

3] Cenozoic eon- Paleogene,Neogene,Quaternary.


A] PALEOZOIC-

1) CAMBRIAN-


First shell-fish,primitive fish,corals.The only modern phylum with an adequate fossil record to appear after the Cambrian was the phylum Bryozoa, which is not known before the early Ordovician. A few mineralized animal fossils, including sponge spicules and probable worm tubes, are known from the Ediacaran Period immediately preceding the Cambrian.


2) ORDOVICIAN-


The Ordovician is best known for its diverse marine invertebrates, including graptolites, trilobites, brachiopods, and the conodonts (early vertebrates). A typical marine community consisted of theseanimals, plus red and green algae, primitive fish, cephalopods, corals, crinoids, and gastropods.
3) SILURIAN-



The Much Wenlock Limestone Formation of Wales and the Welsh Borderland contains a diverse fauna of well over 600 species (mainly crinoids, corals, brachiopods, trilobites, algae and bryozoans) deposited during the early Silurian when this area was covered by a relatively warm, shallow shelf sea.


4) DEVONIAN-

This was the period in which animals like amphibians,sharks,bony fish,spiders originated.The first tetrapods — land-living vertebrates — appeared during the Devonian, as did the first terrestrial arthropods, including wingless insects and 
the earliest arachnids. In the oceans, brachiopods flourished. Crinoids and other 
echinoderms, tabulate and rugose corals, and ammonites were also common.







5) CARBONIFEROUS-



The Carboniferous is a geologic period and system that spans 60 million years from the end of the Devonian Period 358.9 million years ago, to the beginning of the Permian Period, 298.9 Mya. Abundant coal swamps, reptiles, winged insects.









6) PERMIAN-

During the Permian, there were many animals, including Edaphosaurus, Dimetrodon, and other pelycosaurs; Eryops, Diplocaulus, archosaurs, amphibians, fish, and lots of invertebrates (like insects, worms, etc.). An extinct, sail-backed, meat-eating animal from the Permian period (pre-dating the dinosaurs).

B] MESOZOIC-

1) TRIASSIC-

The Mesozoic Era is often known as the Age of Reptiles. Two groups of animals survived the Permian Extinction: Therapsids, which were mammal-like reptiles, and the more reptilian Archosaurs. In the earlyTriassic, it appeared that the Therapsids would dominate the new era.
2) JURASSIC-
During this period, vegetation was greener and more lush. By Late Jurassic, huge dinosaurs such as Stegosaurus, Ceratosaurus, Brachiosaurus, and Allosaurus walked the lands. Flying reptiles ruled the skies. The earliest known birds also appeared.This was also the era on which there are almost 4 to 6 movies.I think the best of them all are Jurassic world.Recently a series of it is also released.Also in that movie ours bollywood actor Irrfan Khan gave his debue as Simon Masrani.                                                                                          
3) CRETACEOUS-
The Cretaceous  is a geologic period and system that spans 79 million years from the end of the Jurassic Period 145 million years ago  to the beginning of the Paleogene Period 66 MYA. It is the last period of the Mesozoic Era.
                                                                                                                                                             
C] CENOZOIC-

1) PALEOGENE-


The Paleogene is a geologic period and system that spans 43 million years from the end of the Cretaceous Period 66 million years ago to the beginning of the Neogene Period 23.03 Mya.At the dawn of the Paleogene—the beginning of the Cenozoic era—dinosaurs, pterosaurs, and giant marine reptiles were conspicuously absent from the face of the Earth. Rodent-size (and perhaps larger) mammals emerged, suddenly free to fill the void. Over the next 42 million years, they grew in size, number, and diversity. As the period came to a close, life-forms still common today filled the seas, dominated the land, and had taken to the air.

2) NEOGENE-

The Neogene  (informally Upper Tertiary or Late Tertiary) is a geologic period and system that spans 20.45 million years from the end of the Paleogene Period 23.03 million years ago (Mya) to the beginning of the present Quaternary Period 2.58 Mya.
3) QUATERNARY-
Quaternary. ... The Quaternary Period is divided into two epochs: the Pleistocene (2.588 million years ago to 11.7 thousand years ago) and the Holocene (11.7 thousand years ago to today). The informal term "Late Quaternary" refers to the past 0.5–1.0 million years.

                 WORLD ENVIRONMENT DAY


Hi friends! On 5th of JUNE the world will celebrate WORLD ENVIRONMENT DAY ! I had recently celebrated the birthday of my nana on 1st of June. I think every one should plant a tree. In VALSAD it was so cool that I enjoyed that atmosphere.I played badminton with a didi in our society.So lets see this video which would inspire you.




Now I will give you brief information for the topic.



World Environment Day (WED) occurs on the 5th of June every year, and is the United Nation's principal vehicle for encouraging awareness and action for the protection of our environment. First held in 1974, it has been a flagship campaign for raising awareness on emerging environmental issues from marine pollution, human overpopulation, and global warming, to sustainable consumption and wildlife crime. WED has grown to become a global platform for public outreach, with participation from over 143 countries annually. Each year, WED has a new theme that major corporations, NGOs, communities, governments and celebrities worldwide adopt to advocate environmental causes.

India is the host of 2018 WORLD ENVIRONMENT DAY. This year its topic is BEAT PLASTIC POLLUTION the world is going to together combat single-use plastic pollution.

India once had started the move of CHIPKO MOVEMENT this was the first time it was done to save the environment.

The Chipko movement or Chipko Andolan was a forest conservation movement where people clung onto trees to prevent them from being cut. Chipko-type movements date back to 1730 AD when in Khejarli village of Rajasthan, 363 Bishnois sacrificed their lives to save khejri trees. In modern India, it began in 1973 in Uttarakhand (then in Uttar Pradesh) and went on to become a rallying point for many future environmental movements all over the world. It created a precedent for starting of nonviolent protest in India,[1] and its success meant that the world immediately took notice of this non-violent movement, which was to inspire in time many such eco-groups by helping to slow down the rapid deforestation, expose vested interests, increase ecological awareness, and demonstrate the viability of people power. Above all, it stirred up the existing civil society in India, which began to address the issues of tribal and marginalized people.The chipko aandolan is a movement that practised methods of Satyagraha where both male and female activists from Uttarakhand played vital roles, including Gaura Devi, Suraksha Devi,Sudesha Devi, Bachni Devi and Chandi Prasad Bhatt.

Today, beyond the eco-socialism hue, it is being seen increasingly as an ecofeminism movement. Although many of its leaders were men, women were not only its backbone, but also its mainstay, because they were the ones most affected by the rampant deforestation, which led to a lack of firewood and fodder as well as water for drinking and irrigation. Over the years they also became primary stakeholders in a majority of the afforestation work that happened under the Chipko movement.[3][4][5] In 1987, the Chipko movement was awarded the Right Livelihood Award.

Friends also in India from last year a abhiyan or protest was started which is known as rally for rivers by shri Sadguru. Now i am taking leave lets meet in my next blog.

 Avengers: Infinity War is a 2018 American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics superhero team the Avengers, produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. It is the sequel to 2012's The Avengers and 2015's Avengers: Age of Ultron, and the nineteenth film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). The film is directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, written by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely, and features an ensemble cast including Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Benedict Cumberbatch, Don Cheadle, Tom Holland, Chadwick Boseman, Paul Bettany, Elizabeth Olsen, Anthony Mackie, Sebastian Stan, Danai Gurira, Letitia Wright, Dave Bautista, Zoe Saldana, Josh Brolin, and Chris Pratt. In Avengers: Infinity War, the Avengers and the Guardians of the Galaxy attempt to stop Thanos from amassing the all-powerful Infinity Stones.
The film was announced in October 2014 as Avengers: Infinity War – Part 1. The Russo brothers came on board to direct in April 2015 and by May, Markus and McFeely had signed on to write the script for the film, which drew inspiration from Jim Starlin's 1991 The Infinity Gauntlet comic and Jonathan Hickman's 2013 Infinity comic. In 2016, Marvel shortened the title to Avengers: Infinity War. Filming began in January 2017 at Pinewood Atlanta Studios in Fayette County, Georgia, and lasted until July 2017, shooting back-to-back with a direct sequel. Additional filming took place in Scotland, England, the Downtown Atlanta area, and New York City. With an estimated budget of around $316 million, it is the third-most expensive film ever made.

Avengers: Infinity War held its world premiere on April 23, 2018 in Los Angeles and was released in the United States on April 27, 2018, in IMAX and 3D. The film received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised the cast, visual effects, emotional weight of the story, and action scenes, although the runtime received some criticism. It has grossed over $1.4 billion worldwide, making it the highest-grossing film of 2018 as well as the 11th highest-grossing film of all time. In its opening weekend it grossed $641 million worldwide and $258 million in the United States and Canada, setting the records for the highest-grossing openings for both. The untitled sequel is set to be released on May 3, 2019.

                       WORLD DANCE DAY




International Dance Day is a global celebration of dance, created by the Dance Committee of the International Theatre Institute (ITI), the main partner for the performing arts of UNESCO. The event takes place every year on 29th April, the anniversary of the birth of Jean-Georges Noverre (1727-1810), the creator of modern ballet. The day strives to encourage participation and education in dance through events and festivals held on the date all over the world. UNESCO formally recognize ITI to be the creators and organizers of the event

Every year, since its creation in 1982, an outstanding dance personality is selected to write a message for International Dance Day. ITI also create a flagship event in a selected host city, at which there are dance performances, educational workshops, humanitarian projects and speeches made by ambassadors, dignitaries, dance personalities and the selected Message Author for that year.

The day is a celebration day for those who can see the value and importance of the art form dance, and acts as a wake-up-call for governments, politicians and institutions which have not yet recognised its value to the people.

In India, there are hundreds of dance forms among them some are I always admired-
1. Garba- Gujarat
2. Bharat Natyam- Tamil Nadu
3. Kathak-northern india
4. Kathakali-Kerela
5. Manipuri-Manipur
6. Lavni-Maharashtra
7. Ghoomar-Rajasthan
8. odhishi-odisha
9. Bhangra-Punjab
10.Dumhal-Jammu & Kashmir
11. Tandav performed by lord SHIVA
12. Lassya- performed by goddess PARVATI

Dance is a fundamental form of human expression that likely evolved together with music as a way of
generating rhythm. The science of dance involves the existence of science in dance and of course its
implementation in the same. One of the first scientific approaches that can be seen today is that dance
is being used as a therapy especially for arthritis, obesity, mental and cancer patients. It has been seen
and proved that music and dance have brought positive changes in the treatment of patients
undergoing chemotherapy. Many cancer centres are offering dance therapies as a combined treatment
to that of their scheduled routine treatments.

I would like to share with you how different streams of science involve in Dancing:

Physics-
  • The sound that comes when we stamp feet on the floor is definitely related to science because ‘Sound’ is found in ‘Physics’. Here we can see that Newton’s III law applies:                   
            “Every action has an equal and opposite reaction”                                          
            The action is that a force has been applied on the floor and the reaction is that a sound is created.
  • ‘Time’ and ‘Speed’ in Physics as the same as ‘Taal’ and ‘Laya’.
  • Displacement in dance is the distance which moved by a dancer on stage. Displacement seen in Physics too.
MATHEMATICS AND GEOMETARY 
  • In dance, the counting of matras definitely related to science where the figures are used.
  • The science behind taking spins/chakkars in dance in the thermo of circle where the dancer open his/her hands at 180’ while taking chakkar. When the dancer takes a chakkar, turns 360’ upon himself/herself. Hands are kept at 45’ and 90’ also. Use of lines; vertical,diagonal. They are imaginary lines that do exist. The dancer creates a space for himself.

BIOLOGY:

  •  The science behind rasa and bhava is such that when a dancer performs on stage, his/her actions reach the audience and the chemical substance is released in the body of the viewer causing a biological change. The audience reacts to the performance due to the neuron chemicals called endorphins that the human body releases.

PHYSIOTHERAPY AND ACCUPRESSURE 
  • The Science behind these two being used in dance is such that the movements that a dancer does act on some points of the body. These in turn create positive vibes in the dancer’s body. Making well in his/her social being. 
  • Dance can be modified to suit a wide range of diagnostic categories; the mentally challenged, physically disabled, slow learners, emotionally disturbed, the visually and hearing impaired, children with cerebral palsy and autism, etc.
  • The points in the feet relating to various part of the human body send signals to the connecting parts and these acts a healing element in the human body. The science behind this is that one is relaxed; it reduces stress, fear, anxiety, depression.

CONCLUSION
  • Moreover Mathematics being a scientific subject sheds much on the science of dance. 
  • Mohiniattam , a classical dance form of Kerala, uses Kinetic movements 
  • Bharatnatyam dancers take squared stances, Kathak dancers uses angles in its movements. Lines are drowns in space. 
  • The Dance creates a space for Dancers and indulges in dancing using imaginative lines, vertical, diagonal straight lines. The spins that a kathak dancer takes a purely angular because dancers takes a complete spin over himself/herself, covering 360’. 
  • Dancer opens his/her hands at 180’. 
  • The implementation of science can be seen. It since long been such a practice to dance in that way but with the advancement in time, one starts realizing the science behind it. 
  • Thanks to diversity in Indian Dance forms that make all the corners of India reach in Heritage, Art, Culture, Happiness and Well being of its citizen.
  • I feel proud to be leave in country where God themselves are dancing (e.g Shiva performing Tandava & Parvati performing Lassya and Many Goddesses performing dance during Navratri).







How did sorrow become our comfort emotion?
