2015's top 15!

Hello everybody,
I hope each one of you is having a fantastic new year. I thought I'd do a round - up of 15 most interesting things expected to happen in 2015.
Here is a list of the most interesting topics/ subjects/ events/ occurrences that are expected to be the buzz in 2015!
This list is based on what interests ME the most and may exclude events of greater significance. :P
   
     Astronomy:
  1. NASA's Dawn spacecraft is expected to arrive at the  dwarf planet Ceres (which lies between Mars and Jupiter) in February 2015. The main aim of this mission is to find out the conditions and processes that took place during the formation of our Solar System.
  2. NASA's New Horizon probe (launched in 2006) arrives at Pluto.
  3. In September, we will witness the most visible Lunar Eclipse as it occurs on a Full Moon, a Supermoon and a Harvest Moon.

  4. Tech:



  5. Virtual reality
  6. Internet of things- for all the non-geeks out there... Internet of things is the concept of connecting various devices/ applications to the internet to customize the the way they function based on individual preferences.
  7. Big Data - the amount of data collected from various sources continues to explode and Big Data Analytics is expected to be the 'Most sought after skill' in 2015. 

  8. Gadgets:





  9. Microsoft releases Microsoft Lumia 2020 PureView -  Being a big fan of Lumia, this is what has me most  excited! :D
  10. Samsung is expected to release a phone with a bendable screen!
  11. Oculus Rift a Virtual Reality headset -  I'm not a gaming enthusiast, but this features on my list because of the amount of hype it has already created. :P

  12. Movies:




  13. Minions: A Prequel to Despicable Me - Despicable Me was wonderful, haven't been able to watch Despicable Me 2... but excited for this!
  14. Disney's Cinderella -  I think I've watched every Cinderella based movie ever made, and now that Disney is making one, I'm obviously super excited for this!
  15. A tie between Taken 3 and Mohenjo Daro (Bollywood) - After Taken and Taken 2, I have high expectations from Taken 3. Jodha Akbar was the last movie where Hrithik Roshan and Ashutosh Gowarikar worked together. Loved Jodha Akbar and hopefully this will be of the same level! (also it is being made in association with Disney!)(There is news that Mohenjo Daro will release in 2016. :( Will have to wait and watch)

  16. Other:




  17. One Direction' s 'On the Road Again' Tour,  '1989' - Taylor Swift's World Tour
  18. Elvis Presley's 80th Birthday Celebration.
  19. The First World Indigeneous Games in Brazil
So this is the list! If there are any others you are excited about, do let me know in the comments section.
Bye! :D
