Kids are always kids !!!!!

 Me and my nephew Aniruddha were deeply engaged in spiritual chatting yesterday  !!!


I was telling him about God and devil.


He didnt understand what I mean by " devil ".


As Aniruddha is a great fan of Chota Bheem cartoon series, I explained him that devil is Shaitan.


Me  :   Do you know who is Shaitan ??


Aniruddha  :  I know him.  But didn't meet him personally  !!!!

Devil comet

 Devil comet is a large, periodic comet that orbits the Sun every 71 years.


It got its name from its appearance !!!


This comet look like a devil as it has horns or forked tail .


This appearance is because of outbursts of gas and dust which forms a horn like structure.


These horns are not physical structurs.  They are the result of comet's cryovolcanic outbursts. ( cold volcano )


The ejected gas and dust form a distinctive horse-shoe or horned shape in its nucleus.

Which country's flag ???

 This question was asked on Koun Banega Karodpati program.


Question 


Stars on which country's flag shows the sky of 15 November 1889 ,  day on which it became republic  ??


1.  Brazil 


2.  Australia 


3.  United States of America 


4.   New Zealand 



Answer 


This question was answerable by looking at options and eliminating some of them   !!!!


Both Australia and New Zealand flags are somewhat similar having Union Jack at the upper left corner and having some stars in the dark blue background.


The dark blue background can not be taken as sky  !!!


Australia and New Zealand ruled out !!!


I have seen the photo of USA flag. It is fully covered with stripes.

United States of America ruled out  !!!


Now we will look at Brazilian flag..... 


Brazilian flag is quite unique !!

It has a distinctive colour combo of green, yellow and blue. It also has celestial sphere in the center.

The blue sphere actually depicts the night sky over Brazil on 15 November 1889 when the country became republic   !!!

It also shows stars arranged at that time on sky  !!!!



Answer             BRAZIL       !!!!
