I know obout B.M. Birla Scienc Center at Hyderabad,
A.P., India. It has conducted a symposium on "Science
and Technology in ancient India" in December 1990. Many
topics ancient Indian aeronautics were discussed. The
Vimanika Prakaranam in Vimana Vignana deals with
instruments like Guha Garbha Darsha Yantra which can
locate objects hidden underground from an aircraft. a
semiconductor ferrite named Chumbaka radiates microwave
signals and detects hidden objects.
The B.M. Birla Scienc Center has been doing active
active research in finding scientific content in Vedas
and Puranas. The Center has deciphered a number of new
materials from Amsu Bodhini. These materials comprise
of glasses with special effects and metallic alloys
with rare properties - many of them have extraordinary
properties unknown to modern technology.

Unlike the modern methods which use 'inert' materials,
these materials required 'live' ingradients like herbs,
tree barks, tree gums in addition to mineral ores. The
sastras had integrated the knowledge of many
conventional disciplines like chemistry, materials
science, metallurgy and Ayurveda. These materials were
widely used in the manufacture of aircrafts in ancient
India, Some of them can serve in low cost solar energy
generation systems needed for India.

What I want to know is whether any institute found
the power of Mantras to obtain superior alloys?
