Begin with the Indian textual references, then swipe through the credited student designs and their interactive experiences.

RAMAYANA · YUDDHA KANDA 123

Where Pushpaka appears

The passage describes the aerial journey toward Ayodhya. The Pushpaka works shown here are new student interpretations of that named account.

Read the passage ↗
MAHABHARATA · BHĀGAVATA PURĀṆA

The Saubha account

Mahabharata 3.15.2 names Saubha; Bhāgavata Purāṇa 10.76.22 describes its movement across land, sky and water. No student design is presented as a reconstruction of Saubha.

02 / The story archive

Vimanas across the texts

Meet three distinct aerial accounts from Indian itihāsa and Purana sources, then see how students drew inspiration from names and themes. The pairings below are curatorial comparisons, not claims of identical vehicles.

RAMAYANA · YUDDHA KANDA 123

Pushpaka

Rama and Sita journey toward Ayodhya in the aerial car. This is a named Ramayana account.

Student mapping

Dushyant Vyas and Niharika Sewani use the Pushpaka name in contemporary, different designs. Their works are interpretations of the name and story.

Curatorial illustration of the Saubha aerial city above a coastline
BHĀGAVATA PURĀṆA · 10.76

Saubha

The chapter describes Maya Dānava building a flying iron city for Śālva. Verse 22 places Saubha on land, in the sky and on water at different moments.

Student mapping · thematic only

Tripura-X by Pradeep Panwar and Garuda-Tripura by Shivranjani Rathore explore land, water and air as a modern theme. Neither is named Saubha or presented as its reconstruction.

Origin passage ↗Movement passage ↗
Curatorial illustration of Kardama's aerial mansion among clouds
BHĀGAVATA PURĀṆA · 3.23

Kardama’s aerial mansion

Verse 12 describes Kardama creating an aerial mansion for Devahūti; verse 41 describes its movement through the sky.

Student mapping · visual theme only

Niharika Sewani’s Flower Palace is a decorative flying palace concept. It is explicitly titled Pushpak, and no direct Kardama attribution is claimed.

SEPARATE, LATER TEXT

Four Kritaka names in the Vaimānika Śāstra

The Indian Institute of Science study describes Shakuna, Sundara, Rukma and Tripura in the Kritaka group and dates the surviving work to 1900–1922. Student category mappings use these names as design inspiration; this text is separate from the Ramayana and Purana accounts above.

All three story images are modern curatorial illustrations. They are not manuscript images, historical reconstructions or student submissions.

Originals + new concept labs

All nineteen submitted HTML experiences are embedded in this one file. Every credited design also has a museum-built interactive flight lab, including five that arrived without runnable code.

05 / Side by side

Compare the Vimanas

Choose any two student concepts. Compare their design attribution, textual connection, proposed applications, candidate modern materials and available demos.

Applications and materials are curatorial proposals for future engineering study. They are not specifications, cost estimates or proof of flightworthiness.

06 / Context

Vimanas, text and history

The visual tradition is older than the technical manuscript. Keeping them distinct makes the exhibition more credible.

Ancient inspiration; modern manuscript

Indian itihāsa and Purana traditions describe aerial vehicles, including Pushpaka in the Ramayana and Saubha in the Mahabharata and Bhāgavata Purāṇa. The surviving Vaimānika Śāstra is a different work. An Indian Institute of Science historical and engineering study concluded that it took shape between 1900 and 1922 and found its aircraft descriptions aeronautically unsound.

We use its named forms as cultural design references. The narratives are presented as Indian itihāsa and Purana heritage. A textual account or visual resemblance does not establish a tested aircraft design. IISc study ↗ · Ramayana, Yuddha Kanda 123 ↗ · Mahabharata 3.15.2 ↗ · Bhāgavata Purāṇa 10.76.22 ↗

Short historical timeline

Earlier traditionThe Ramayana describes Pushpaka; the Mahabharata and Bhāgavata Purāṇa describe Saubha. These are different textual traditions from the later technical manuscript.
1900–1922The IISc authors date the surviving Vaimānika Śāstra composition to this period.
1959A Hindi edition, Brihad Vimana Shastra, was published.
1974IISc researchers published a critical historical and technical study of the work.
TodayStudents reinterpret its motifs with contemporary digital tools and clearly labelled concept simulations.
KRITAKA / 01
Shakuna

Bird-like form. Student works often use wings, tail and an avian silhouette.

KRITAKA / 02
Sundara

Layered form. The eVTOL study maps a saucer-like contemporary interpretation to it.

KRITAKA / 03
Rukma

A tiered form in the source study. Here it appears within a composite design, not as a standalone submission.

KRITAKA / 04
Tripura

Modern student concepts use its three-domain theme: land, water and air.

The four names and their Kritaka grouping come from the cited IISc study. “Pushpak,” generic aircraft and modern eVTOLs are labelled separately.

07 / How it was made

CRAFT + code

Generative AI and prompt engineering helped explore ideas, draft visuals and build interfaces. Student review, source attribution and human judgement remain essential.

CContext

Start with each student's design, the archive files and the historical source boundary.

RRole

Ask AI to work as designer, researcher, developer or test reviewer for a specific task.

AAction

Request a model, scene, interaction, explanation or quality check with clear acceptance criteria.

FFormat

Specify the output: image, deck, 3D prototype, HTML page or simulation control.

TTone

Keep the language clear, respectful, visually compelling and honest about evidence.

HTML

Semantic exhibition sections, labels, controls, dialogs and preserved embedded demos.

CSS

Responsive layout, cinematic atmosphere, perspective carousel, motion and touch-friendly cards.

JavaScript

Search, filtering, swipe navigation, source loading, state, custom 3D projection and concept flight controls.

3D tools

Several original demos use Three.js. A Blender screenshot was supplied, but no editable .blend project; its provenance is shown without claiming a live Blender simulation.

What the flight lab means

The new flight labs are museum-built interactive visualisations. Throttle, attitude, altitude and battery displays are illustrative state variables, not measured lift, drag, battery performance or a certified flight model. Original student demos retain their own behaviour in a separate tab. Some use public CDNs, so those embedded experiences may need internet when deployed.

✦ Special thanks to God

With gratitude for divine guidance

We offer our special thanks to God for the guidance, strength and blessings that supported our team throughout the creation of this museum.

A prayer for truth and light

ॐ असतो मा सद्गमय ।
तमसो मा ज्योतिर्गमय ।
मृत्योर्मा अमृतं गमय ।
ॐ शान्तिः शान्तिः शान्तिः ॥

Om asato mā sad gamaya · tamaso mā jyotir gamaya · mṛtyor mā amṛtaṃ gamaya · Om śāntiḥ śāntiḥ śāntiḥ

Lead us from untruth to truth, from darkness to light, and from death to immortality.

The three central lines are from Bṛhadāraṇyaka Upaniṣad 1.3.28. The opening Om and closing peace invocation are customary in recitation.
