How Ayodhya's Ram Temple Looks From Space. See Pics By India's Satellites

 New Delhi: Ahead of the grand  sanctification  form at Ayodhya, the Indian Space Research Organisation( ISRO) has given the country the first' darshan' or  regard of the  magnific Ram Temple as seen from space using our own indigenous satellites.  The2.7- acre Ram Temple  point can be seen and an enlarged view of the same is also  handed using the Indian Remote seeing series of satellites. 

The under construction  tabernacle was captured on December 16 last time, just about a month agoneSince  also,  thick fog over Ayodhya has made it  delicate to get a clear view. 

In the satellite images, Dashrath Mahal and Sarayu River are  easily seen. The  recently  repaired Ayodhya  road station is also visible.   India  presently has over 50 satellites in space, and some of them have a resolution of  lower than a metre. The image has been reused by the National Remote seeing Centre in Hyderabad, a part of the Indian space agency.   

ISRO technologies have also been used at other stages of the  tabernacle's construction. A big challenge in the grand  design was to identify the exact  position to place the  hero of Lord Ram. The trust entrusted with  erecting the  tabernacle wanted the  hero to be placed in a 3  bases X 6  bases space where Lord Ram is believed to have been born.   

Alok Sharma, International working President of Vishwa Hindu Parishad, is  nearly involved with the Ram Temple  design. He told NDTV that following the  obliteration of Babri Masjid in 1992, 40  bases of debris covered the spot where Lord Ram is believed to have been born. This debris had to be removed and the  position secured so that the new  hero is exactly and precisely at that spot.   This was easier said than done because construction of the  tabernacle began nearly three decades after the  obliteration. also, space technology came to the deliverance. 

To identify the exact spot, contractors for construction  establishment Larsen & Toubro used the most sophisticated Differential Global Positioning System( GPS)- groundedco-ordinates. Theco-ordinates, precise to nearly 1- 3 centimetres, were drawn up. They formed the base for the placement of the statue in the  tabernacle's garba griha or sanctum sanctorum.   The  perfection  outfit used in these geographical instruments also incorporates precise  position signals from India's own' swadeshi GPS'-- the ISRO- made' Navigation with Indian Constellation' or the NavIC satellite constellation.

ISRO  president S Somanath told NDTV that five satellites of the NAvIC constellation are working, and the system is  presently set for an upgrade.
