Unless Indians have the sense of pride, patriotism and a feeling of " this is mine", things will continue to stagnate. But things are improving and these are just growing pains!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3192431606458867150.post-11485569993646803882013-09-30T09:48:44.028+05:302013-09-30T09:48:44.028+05:30thnks for d reminder :)thnks for d reminder :)Nithinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14206006637861209373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3192431606458867150.post-31149687817623373502013-09-30T09:48:29.941+05:302013-09-30T09:48:29.941+05:30hmmm... d 3rd pointer is also relevant for mangala...hmmm... d 3rd pointer is also relevant for mangalayaan since its also a sort of collaboration with NASA... so u never know in d future ISRO could be full blown commercial org.....<br />I guess NASA's fundin is gettin reduced thnks to Uncle Sams uncertain economic future and NASA's staggering $17 billion budget...

When any projects gets kicked out, in a Govt side, its worse than what happens in "Sivaji - The Boss". The pipe just gets narrow at every stage of the approval itself.<br /><br />Afterall, its just 500 Crore to reach the Mars? Are you kidding? We have just spent 100 crore just to upgrade a ticketing site..<br /><br />"It would cost about Rs 100 crore to Railways for strengthening the ticketing site." http://articles.economictimes.indiatimes.com/2013-05-27/news/39557183_1_irctc-website-tatkal-tickets-booking-capacity<br /><br />And one more thing I would like to point out is, there is one more tangible pointer with this achievement, to the two pointers you have mentioned..<br /><br />3) Commercialization.<br /><br />ISRO does a lot of business through its launch vehicles. Why not start a "Off shore" launch site, Again? May be, Even more..<br /><br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antrix_Corporation<br /><br />But dude, it seems unwillingness to spend for Space exploration is same with Uncle Sam also..<br /><br />http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/420606009/fight-for-space-space-program-and-nasa-documentary<br />rajkumar.rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01113405186212940279noreply@blogger.com
