DELHI- As India is suffering from more casualties on Siachen, it bids to alleviate the sufferings. In order to do that, Indian Space Research Organization has manufactured the world’s lightest material called silica aerogel or ‘blue air’ to keep the soldiers warm.
The material is useful in both outer space and Earth and has extraordinary thermal resistance. This material can be used in soldier uniforms to keep them warm especially in freezing temperatures.
This material is also known as ‘frozen smoke’ and is manufactured by ISRO’s research center arm. It is so light that it has the ability to be placed at a flower head.
This indigenous creation of India is hoped to be used in rocket engines for insulation. For soldiers, it can be used in their insoles, thermal jackets, and even have purposes for window glazing.
