Above and more than what is noted above , it has been proved beyond doubt by none other than the History Channel that,the city named Dwaraka still exists below the sea near Gujrat,it was as old as 36000 years to 9000 years , which proves our epic of Mahabartha as the history of India ,when SriKrishna lived and the deluge wiped off the world under the sea about 5000 years ago,when after Kurukshetra War,Kaliyuga started.It has also been proved by none other than NASA that the bridge between Srilanka and India was man made structure and that proves the Ramavathar and Ramayana too as being the history of great India  , which existed hundreds of thousands years ago. Just study Indian Vedas and Upanishads because that includes every answer for the world about science as it existed for millions of years.
