Byjus (UPSC) Science & Technology Lecture 1 2023 11 10 07 14 49

Understanding the Strategy for Science and Technology Exams To excel in science and technology exams, understanding the syllabus is crucial. The syllabus outlines what to study, while previous year questions provide insight into question patterns. General science topics often lack clarity; hence current events of national and international importance are vital as they link static knowledge with dynamic developments.

Key Areas in Mains Syllabus: Applications & Achievements The mains syllabus emphasizes three areas: everyday applications of scientific advancements, achievements by Indian scientists (focusing on collective contributions like ISRO's role), indigenization of foreign technologies tailored for India’s needs, and development or adoption of new global technologies.

Core Topics from Prelims Perspective Preliminaries focus heavily on space technology and energy due to their frequent news coverage. Other significant chapters include biotechnology (important at both levels), nanotechnology (prelims-focused), robotics/artificial intelligence (growing relevance across prelims/mains). Defense/diseases rely more on current affairs than static content.

'Make-or-Break' Role in Prelims Exam Success Science contributes 15% to prelims papers but remains neglected by many aspirants despite its scoring potential through focused preparation over just 11 classes plus added current affairs updates—making it a decisive factor between success/failure during competitive assessments!

'Major Scientific Breakthrough Stories': Key Question Sources! 'Breakthrough stories,' government initiatives/programmes affecting consumers directly dominate exam trends alongside related foundational concepts behind these breakthroughs ensuring comprehensive

Theories of Universe Formation Various theories explain the universe's origin, with The Big Bang Theory being most accepted. It posits that 13.8 billion years ago, all matter and forces were concentrated in a tiny particle smaller than a proton before expanding into today's universe. Other theories include Eternal Inflation (multiverse concept) and Oscillating Universe (cyclical expansion/contraction). While evidence like Hubble Expansion, Cosmic Microwave Background radiation, and hydrogen-helium abundance support the Big Bang Theory, questions about what preceded or triggered it remain unanswered.

Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation This phenomenon provides critical evidence for the early hot state of the universe post-Big Bang. Detected through missions like COBE (1993), WMAP (2006), and Planck (2009), these microwaves signify residual heat from when temperatures reached an estimated 10^32°C during initial cosmic formation stages. Observing this background helps validate predictions made by The Big Bang Theory regarding universal origins.

Unanswered Questions About Pre-Big Bang Era Despite its acceptance as a leading explanation for our cosmos' beginnings due to strong supporting data points such as nucleosynthesis patterns observed today across galaxies alongside other phenomena tied back directly towards events occurring shortly after creation itself; however significant gaps still exist concerning specifics surrounding conditions existing beforehand along triggers responsible initiating rapid expansions witnessed thereafter leaving room open further exploration alternative hypotheses potentially filling voids left
