<h2 id="content-id-1751738082498-0"><strong>Understanding India’s Revised Coastal Length</strong></h2>

<p>In December 2024, the Government of India revised its official coastline length from 7,516.6 km to 11,098.8 km, utilising advanced technologies such as GIS, LIDAR-GPS, and satellite imaging. This update, announced by the Ministry of Home Affairs, reflects improved measurement accuracy, not territorial changes. The revision aids maritime security, disaster planning, EEZ management, and climate modelling. Based on fractal geometry, finer scales reveal more coastal detail. India’s 11 coastal states and 2 UTs, including Goa (last to join in 1961), are affected.</p>

<h2 id="content-id-1751738082565-2"><strong>China’s Tianwen-2 Mission Aims for Quasi-Satellite Kamo‘oalewa</strong></h2>

<p>China’s Tianwen-2 mission aims to collect samples from near-Earth quasi-satellite asteroid 469219 Kamo‘oalewa, launching soon. This mission will make China the third country to return asteroid material to Earth. Kamo‘oalewa’s unique orbit and possible lunar origin make it scientifically valuable. Using touch-and-go and anchor-and-attach sampling, the mission will return samples and explore the main asteroid belt. It may reveal insights into quasi-satellites, the Moon’s origin, and gravitational dynamics, overcoming challenges posed by the asteroid’s small size.</p>
