With reference to the Indian National Space Promotion and Authorization Center (IN-SPACe), consider the following statements:
1.IN-SPACe was established to promote and regulate the space activities of private sector companies in India.
2.IN-SPACe operates under the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO).
3.IN-SPACe was established by an executive order issued by the Government of India.
How many of the statements is/are correct?
Correct
(c) All three statements are correct
The Indian National Space Promotion and Authorization Centre (IN-SPACe) is an autonomous agency that promotes, enables, authorizes, and supervises space activities by private entities in India. IN-SPACe was established in 2020 to facilitate private sector participation in the space sector.
IN-SPACe acts as a bridge between the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and private space entities. It promotes private participation in space activities, such as building satellites and launch vehicles, sharing space infrastructure, and establishing new space infrastructure.
IN-SPACe is an autonomous agency under the Department of Space (DOS). It has three directorates: Promotion Directorate (PD), Technical Directorate (TD), and Program Management and Authorization Directorate (PMAD).

Question 4 of 5
4. Question
With reference to cloud seeding, consider the following statements:
1. It is a weather modification technique that improves a cloud’s ability to produce rain or snow by introducing tiny ice nuclei into certain types of subfreezing clouds.
2. Aluminum hydroxide is the most common chemical used for cloud seeding.
Select the correct statement using the code given below:
Correct
(a) 1 only
Cloud seeding is a weather modification technique that improves a cloud’s ability to produce rain or snow by introducing tiny ice nuclei into certain types of subfreezing clouds. These nuclei provide a base for snowflakes to form. (Statement 1 is correct)
The most common chemicals used for cloud seeding include silver iodide, potassium iodide and dry ice (solid carbon dioxide). (Statement 2 is incorrect)

Question 5 of 5
5. Question
With reference to green hydrogen, consider the following statements:
1.It can be used directly as a fuel for internal combustion.
2.It can be blended with natural gas and used as fuel for heat or power generation.
3.It can be used in the hydrogen fuel cell to run vehicles.
How many of the above statements are correct?
Correct
(c) All three statements are correct
Green hydrogen can be used directly as a fuel for internal combustion by a hydrogen engine (HCE). HCE is an engine that uses hydrogen (H2) as fuel. It is a modified gasoline-powered engine but doesn’t emit any carbon-based pollution, which is a big benefit towards carbon neutrality. HCEs operate similarly to 4-stroke gasoline engines (ICEs). But compared to gasoline, which has an octane rating of 90 (for premium gasoline), hydrogen has a higher-octane number of 130. (Statement 1 is correct)
Hydrogen produced through clean pathways can be injected into natural gas pipelines, and the resulting blends can be used to generate heat and power with lower emissions than using natural gas alone. (Statement 2 is correct)
A fuel cell uses the chemical energy of green hydrogen or other fuels to cleanly and efficiently produce electricity. If hydrogen is the fuel, the only products are electricity, water, and heat. (Statement 3 is correct)
