Electrical supply systems in the high-altitude and snowy mountains of the Himalayas rely on robust off-grid and decentralized setups. Sub-zero temperatures, heavy snowfall, and avalanches frequently disrupt traditional power grids, necessitating the use of micro-hydro, solar power, and specialized battery banks. East Sikkim, located in the eastern Himalayas at about 13,123 feet between Nathula and Jelepla passes, is remote and experiences harsh weather, making downed or low wires a significant risk. This photo is taken at Phadamchen, Sikkim, India, on April 17, 2026.

Comet C/2025 R3, also known as Pan-STARRS, is visible before dawn in the sky of Karawang, West Java, on April 15, 2025. Comet C/2025 R3 (Pan-STARRS) is a rare long-period comet originating from the Oort Cloud, located at the edge of the solar system, and passes close to the Sun approximately every 170,000 years. This comet was first detected on September 7-8, 2025, by the Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System (Pan-STARRS) telescope system in Hawaii. Astronomers predict that the comet will be at its closest distance to the Sun on April 19, appearing very bright in the eastern sky before dawn and visible to the naked eye under dark sky conditions.
