Topic Research: Ancient Indian Techonology

 

Ashwathama uses Narayanastra

 I'm choosing to do Ancient Indian Tech for my project. There is a lot of speculation and myth associated with the stories I'm choosing, so I'm going to have to make it clear that it is fictitious (as a lot of my ideas came from the infamous Ancient Aliens).

 

Vimana Spaceship:

 A mythical flying palace. The Vimana has been associated with aliens. I would like to relay the story from the Ramayana, and include the speculation surrounding the Vimana spaceship in conspiracy circles.

Nuclear Energy:

This subject is also highly speculative, but there are a lot of urban legends involving it. I want to explore the cities and myths involved, and discuss the possibility of nuclear power in ancient India.

Astra: Ancient Indian Weapons
:  

The weapons associated with the Gods are very powerful, and many speculate that these weapons were akin to modern day weapons. There are stories of Vishnu wielding powerful heat-seeking missiles,  and atomic bombs dropped on ancient cities. I want to tell the myths and stories involving these legends, and then speculate about the weapons having technology like we have in the modern world.
