Introduction: A Nuclear Vision for Viksit Bharat@2047 As India marches toward its ambitious goal of becoming a developed nation by 2047, energy security stands as a pivotal pillar in the vision of Viksit Bharat . Amid the global climate crisis and rising energy demands, nuclear power has re-emerged as a compelling solution. India’s commitment to achieving 100 GW of nuclear power capacity by 2047 is both visionary and necessary—but achieving this requires a strategic shift in policy, participation, and international cooperation. While India’s nuclear energy sector has traditionally been a tightly controlled domain under government monopoly—primarily led by the Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) and Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited (NPCIL) —it is now imperative to welcome private sector investments and foreign partnerships. A reformed nuclear ecosystem can unlock the full potential of atomic energy as a clean, reliable, and scalable contributor to India’s net-zero aspiration...
Quantum-Based Atomic Clock: A Breakthrough in Ultra-Precise Timekeeping

Content
Introduction:
Scientists in the United Kingdom have developed a quantum-based atomic clock, representing a major leap in timekeeping accuracy.What is an Atomic Clock?
- A clock that uses the resonance frequencies of atoms (usually cesium or rubidium) to measure time with remarkable precision.
- These clocks are the most accurate timekeeping devices in the world.
Quantum-Based Innovation:
- The new quantum-based atomic clock can lose less than one second over billions of years.
- It leverages quantum mechanics for improved frequency control and stability.
Benefits:
- Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS): Enhanced precision in GNSS improves the accuracy of GPS and other positioning systems.
- Advanced Weapon Systems: Enhances the precision of guided missiles and defense systems by providing ultra-stable time references.
- Scientific Research: Enables highly accurate time measurements critical for astrophysics, quantum computing, and space exploration.
- Telecommunications: Improves the synchronization of networks for faster data transfer and lower latency.
Conclusion:
The quantum-based atomic clock marks a significant advancement in timekeeping, with potential applications across various industries, including defense, space, and telecommunications.
