Its just a model which will go to only 70 Km height and splash down in the sea , not on a runway.
No its not that simple. It reentered into atmosphere as per predecided angle. It encountered reentry friction and heat successfully and than it subsequently glided like a plane on predecided path till it touched sea. It had no wheels and can not land on earth. You are trying to undermine ISRO's sucess.
Good for boosting national morale but nothing significant. Topgear a TV show launched a bigger space shuttle in 2008. Google it.
But yeah, at least India tries.
Look, even without this space shuttle, we are the cheapest launcher of spece crafts in all orbits. This is to reduce cost further by ten fold. So better you stop trolling here if you can not congratulate this success.
