So here comes my post of the day. Answers to be written in comments section.

Question 1
"The Arctic Home in the Vedas" is a book written in 1903, by a very famous Indian freedom fighter. In it, he argued that the Vedas could only have been composed in the Arctics, and the Aryan bards brought them south after the onset of the last ice age. He proposed a new way to determine the exact time of the Vedas. He tried to calculate the time of Vedas by using the position of different Nakshatras. After that, he wrote a book named "The Orion". Who was this famous Indian freedom fighter?
