Bhaskaracharya bhaskaracharya ii(11141185). bhaskaracharya otherwise known as bhaskara isprobably the most well known mathematician of ancient Indian today. http://www.math.sfu.ca/histmath/India/12thCenturyAD/Bhaskara.html
Extractions: Bhaskaracharya otherwise known as Bhaskara is probably the most well known mathematician of ancient Indian today. Bhaskara was born in 1114 A.D. according to a statement he recorded in one of his own works. He was from Bijjada Bida near the Sahyadri mountains. Bijjada Bida is thought to be present day Bijapur in Mysore state. Bhaskara wrote his famous Siddhanta Siroman in the year 1150 A.D. It is divided into four parts; Lilavati (arithmetic), Bijaganita (algebra), Goladhyaya (celestial globe), and Grahaganita (mathematics of the planets). Much of Bhaskara's work in the Lilavati and Bijaganita was derived from earlier mathematicians; hence it is not surprising that Bhaskara is best in dealing with indeterminate analysis . In connection with the Pell equation, x^2=1+61y^2, nearly solved by Brahmagupta , Bhaskara gave a method ( Chakravala process ) for solving the equation.
ISRO Success Stories bhaskaraI and ii, which were evolved from Aryabhata and carrying remote sensorsin the bhaskara-I was launched in 1979 followed by bhaskara-ii in 1981. http://www.frontlineonnet.com/fl1809/18090180.htm
Extractions: FROM building the first experimental satellite Aryabhata in 1975 to the world class operational Indian Remote Sensing (IRS) satellite series on the one hand and the third generation communication satellite INSAT-3 on the other, is indeed an impressive track record by any standards for the 30-year-old Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). It could well be argued that the development of launch vehicle technology, which began in the mid-1960s, has not achieved the same degree of success. Indeed, many, both within the organisation and without, believe that the launch vehicle front did not receive the same kind of focus as satellite development did, particularly after Satish Dhawan retired from ISRO in 1984. At a time when ISRO's launch vehicle development has reached an important phase with the launch of the Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle, it would be appropriate to put satellite technology development also in perspective. At the launch of the first Rohini-75 rocket at Thumba, 1969.
Extractions: Dr.Kasturirangan Scientist Dr.Kasturirangan : "Scientist" Scientists deserve a big hand. They are the pillars of the modern India. One of such great person is Dr. Kasturirangan Chairman of the Indian Space Research Organization, of Space Commission and Secretary to the Government of India in the Department of Space. Under his leadership, as Chairman, ISRO, the space programme has witnessed several major milestones including the successful launching and operationalisation of the India's prestigious launch vehicle, the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) and more recently, the first successful flight testing of the all important Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV). Further, he has also overseen the design, development and launching of the world's best civilian satellites, IRS-1C and 1D, realization of the second generation and initiation of third generation INSAT satellites, besides launching ocean observation satellites IRS-P3/P4. These efforts have put India as a pre-eminent space-faring nation among the handful of six countries that have major space programmes. As an Astrophysicist, Dr.Kasturirangan's interest includes research in high energy X-ray and gamma ray astronomy as well as optical astronomy. He has made extensive and significant contributions to studies of Cosmic x-ray sources, celestial gamma-ray and effect of cosmic x-rays in the lower atmosphere.

Indian Space Program By Subhajit Ghosh bhaskaraI was the second Indian satellite bhaskara-ii the third which werelaunched from the same soviet cosmodrome mainly for observations on the earth. http://www.boloji.com/computing/012.htm
Extractions: From a historical perspective, the first Indian satellite was Aryabhata, which was launched by a soviet rocket on 19th April 1975. This was launched from a cosmodrome near Moscow. It was designed and built by Indian scientists and engineers of Indian Space Research Organization. Orders and instructions were transmitted to the experimental 360 kg satellite Aryabhata from the control station at Sriharikota.

Extractions: A Memorial from Volume 4, #2 , of TopCom Rae-Michael Shortt, my good friend and Professor, Department of Mathematics, Wesleyan University, Middletown, CT, USA died on July 11, 1999. Rae was a prolific researcher. It now seems that Rae was a mathematician in a hurry. In a short span of seventeen years of his research life, Rae has published more than 70 research papers, three research monographs (in Dissertationes Mathematicae) and edited four books. Academically, Rae was an open person. He has done lot of his work all by himself. But whenever there was an opportunity to discuss he did not hesitate. He had many coauthors: Lew Robertson, Clark Givens, Manfred Droste, R. Gobel, S. T. Rachev, Dan Dougherty, Steve Landry, Alan Hirshberg Emma d'Aniello and myself - to name some. Rae has also worked on a variety of topics: Strassen's Theorem, Marginal problems, Wasserstein metrics, Descriptive theory of sets, Borel spaces, cardinal algebras, Petri nets, group valued charges, and vector measures - to name some. To some of these themes, like for example, Strassen's Theorem, Rae would return again and again. Once Rae understood a problem he would think about it twenty four hours. Many a time Rae had called me at midnight to tell me that he has a solution to the problem that we were thinking about for the last few days or so. Rae would visit our house at odd hours (he had a standing invitation to our house) and spend the time discussing mathematics. I still recall Rae's ambling up the slope in snow to my house at about midnight to tell me that he had a particularly interesting observation on some problem on integer valued charges (We were still working on this problem at the time of his death). He was very kind to the students. He was active with the graduate students and would make special efforts to take the graduate students for dinners with the visitors to the department. Rae was also very religious. He would go to Church every Sunday. He was also an active participant in Church activities.

Assim, se pesquisarmos junto aos alunos, verificamos que a grande maioria sabe resolver a equação do segundo grau usando a fórmula de Bhascara, mas quase a totalidade dos alunos desconhece quem foi o criador da fórmula de Bhascara, quais os preceitos que usou para chegar até ela e, qual a sua aplicabilidade no ensino atual. DESENVOLVIMENTO 1.História da Matemática na Índia São do 3º milénio a.C. os primeiros vestígios matemáticos da civilização que se desenvolveu no vale do rio Indo. Os Harapas, povo que habitava esta região adotou um sistema decimal (pelo menos é o que as investigações parecem indicar) de pesos e medidas.
