THE GREAT INVENTIONS IN AIR AND SPACE TRANSPORT THROUGHOUT HISTORY AND THEIR FUTURE EVOLUTION
This article aims to present the inventions that occurred with the means of air and space transport throughout history. Air transport means are those that move in the air (balloons, airships, planes, helicopters and drones) to transport people and cargo. Space transport means are those that move through outer space using rockets and/or spacecraft to transport astronauts, artificial satellites, space probes, robots, rovers or any other type of equipment for space exploration. In addition to presenting the evolution of air and space transport throughout history, its future evolutions are also presented.
Ancient World of Aerospace Technology: Technical Note

As per the great ancient Indian scripts over thousands of years back there are flying and levitating vehicles called as vimanas (e.g.: Pushpaka Vimana) with most efficient propulsion system (e.g.: mercury propulsion) and far more advanced than today’s technology which are even capable of travel from one planet to another planet. But even now also no one knows about manufacturing those Indian ancient vimanas.

Mechanics in Ancient Aircraft In Ancient Aeronautics
Research of ancient air craft PUSHPAKA VIMANA is my dream. The views about ancient aircraft struck my mind when I read about SETHU SAMUTHIRA project of India. SETHU SAMUTHIRA project is posing a great challenge to India, not only India but to the whole world. Though there are advanced technologies in India we still do not understand the complicated techniques used by our ancestors .so I decided to understand the technology used in the vimana .which was developed before B.C, by reading many Sanskrit books of RAMAYANAM.I got a proof that they used mercury as fuel for the aircraft, and the surprising fact that was revealed was they used gravity neutralization method, but the steps of constructing aircraft were not in the text books. After some calculations I assumed this theory. As years have gone by our country lost many text and details related to the techniques they used in those periods
