Water!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Finally, I am ready with my entry for this month's Cuckoo's Point & Shoot Photo contest. I am saying "finally" cos this month's topic -- "Life and
Death" -- is tricky. I have been thinking about it since I saw it posted. I wanted to click something real, but couldn't find anything apt for the topic. Now as the last date for entry is approaching,I decided it's going to be symbolic and it will be "Water".
The topic also reminded me that I had chosen this as my storyline
for a science fiction some years back for "Science Reader". I had
visualized that around 2050, the human beings have colonies in moon
but the world is on the verge of coming to an end due to scarcity of water. The food is replaced with capsules as no water is available for
agriculture. Man had found a substitute for everything but they still
needed to find a solution for water. In between the story there
are two friends who are topnotch scientists working on the water
project. They become successful in synthesizing water but the only
problem was that in their invention the water got oxidized and H2O
turned into H2O2. To get the solution one of the friend tested
the synthesized water on himself but the friend died.
They finally did succeed and invented a route to prepare
water and the other friend recalls all this when
they are nominated for Noble Prize.
Somehow, I never sent that for the Science Reader and I don't want to
have a similar fate for another "water" entry and so here goes my
entry.
