    ISRO Cheif K Sivan has confirmed that the Indian space rockets are set to go green. It looks like the space agency is working to replace the hazardous fuel with non-hazardous and environment-friendly fuels for its rockets and satellites.
    Obviously, we're not going to be able to replace the existing fuels with the green ones overnight, but it seems like ISRO is very optimistic about this move. The ISRO Chairman also noted that the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is looking at green propulsion through hydrogen peroxide in its rocket. ISRO is looking to make this happen for the Gaganyaan mission.

    It makes a lot of sense because Gaganyaan mission will carry humans to space, so having non-hazardous fuels will be a huge win. While speaking to IANS, ISRO chief K Sivan said, "Since humans will be inside the rocket, we want only non-hazardous fuel and not the hazardous one to power the human space mission's Gaganyaan rocket."

    In addition to that, ISRO is also looking at rocket engines powered by hydrogen peroxide as a mono-propellant or as a bi-propellant along with ethanol. Sivan noted that tested the LOX/Methane engine and the results have been pretty good. This will also be a lot more cost-effective, so it'll be interesting to see how this plan works out.

    This works towards going green seems to be at a promising stage and we can't wait to see ISRO launching its first rocket with these green fuels.

    Microsoft has started the new year on a very weird note. The company says it discovered its systems were infiltrated. This news comes as the company continues to investigate the massive SolarWinds attack. It said the infiltration was just beyond the presence of malicious SolarWinds code.
    In an update from its Security Response Center, Microsoft says that hackers were able to "view source code in a number of source code repositories". This is indeed big news and it'll take at least a few weeks to unravel the attack's implications.

    Microsoft noted that the attackers didn't have any permission to modify any code or systems. It also noted that it found no evidence of access to production services or customer data. There are no indications that their accounts were used to attack others either.

    This isn't a usual attack but Microsoft says it regularly assumes adversaries are able to view its source code and does not rely on the secrecy of source code to keep its products secure. At this point, it's hard to tell how much code was viewed by the attackers or what that particular code is used for, but we really appreciate Microsoft's assurance.

    The US government and the cybersecurity officials have implicated Russia as the architects of the overall SolarWinds attack. Microsoft, however, points to “a very sophisticated nation-state actor” as the culprit.

    These cyber-attacks are getting more frequent now and it very alarming, to say the least. A lot of these big-name companies have our data and we hope necessary measures are in place to keep these attacks in check in the future.

    Adobe has scheduled the end of support for its famous Flash software on December 31st, 2020, which means it's over. While Adobe won't start blocking Flash content until January 12th, major browsers will shut it down soon if they haven't already.
    Flash has a huge name in web history and it has enjoyed massive cultural relevance over the years. Adobe's Flash software has been in service for over a decade now, making it harder to say goodbye.

    While Adobe is finally letting go of Flash, it will continue to live on in many historical artifacts. The Internet Archive is preserving Flash games and some popular animations like “Peanut Butter Jelly Time.”

    We all may have different memories with Flash but there's no denying that it has helped us in some way or the other. A lot of people have come out on Twitter to bid adieu to Flash, with many getting emotional.

    Thank you for making unique memories and making my childhood just a bit brighter.

    — DemDarnKatz (@LucasHastings2) January 1, 2021 Yep, 2020 was not joking around.
    Wow. Today is the last day ever for Adobe Flash. 2020 was not joking around.

    — chocolate bread (@Biz_cutsss) December 31, 2020 Lastly, we'd like to point out that Adobe recommends removing the software from your computers due to security concerns. As much as we love Adobe's Flash, it only makes sense to remove any and all unsupported softwares from our system as soon as possible.
