First Pakistani astronaut will go into space in 2022: Information Minister

That will take -

  • Less warships, less money on stupid defence purchases
  • 1,000s on 1,000s of more primary schools
  • millions of more boys/girls at school
  • 1,00s on 1,00s more universities
  • research centres
  • in another generation we will have the intelectual capital to launch our own missions

But this is still good because it will encourage the young and make then look to the stars ....

And strangely it ruptured because of China.

educating people will span a whole generation around 60+ years and it should be started immediately .
just imagine the schools the government could build on 68 bn rupees rather than building a metro in Peshawar.
 
I just want to experience this before I die. Board a flight to Lahore with PIA get excellent service and land 20 mins early. Arrive to a clean built up city with a skyscraper financial district.Hardly any poor. Turn on the tv to PTV news in 4k and watch a segment on Pakistani space programme and exports crossing $500bn.
 
ISLAMABAD: Pakistan would send a human to space for the first time in 2022 with China's help, Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry announced Thursday, ahead of Prime Minister Imran Khan's maiden visit to Beijing. Pakistan's first space mission has been planned for 2022 and the federal Cabinet meeting chaired by Khan approved the plan on Thursday, he was quoted as saying by The News.

An agreement between Pakistan Space and Upper Atmosphere Research Commission (SUPARCO) and a Chinese company has already been signed, the minister said.

Earlier this year, Pakistan launched two indigenously built satellites into orbit, using a Chinese launch vehicle.

Prime Minister Khan is embarking on his first visit to China on November 3 and will hold meetings with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Premier Li Keqiang, Geo News quoted the Foreign Office as saying.

Today it's become bit of a legend how Pakistan was doing so well in 1960s and how other developing countries like South Koreans would send teams to see how great Pakistan was doing. This is actually true because Pakistan along with South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Turkey, Iraq etc were under US umbrella and being developed by Washington to showcase how Washington helped it's friends in contrast to Soviet Union and it's satellites like North Korea, Cuba, Angola, Vietnam etc.

Unfortunately for Pakistan our relationship ruptured and we went astray from Washington which meant by 1970s Pakistan was very much on it's own. South Korea, Turkey, Taiwan kept firmly attached to USA through the decades and leveraged having a superpower to the point where today all three countries are wealthy and developed.

Now that we have another opportunity with China lesson for us not to muck it up. Heads down and just get the most out of China. Only one goal. Develop by gaining maximum advantage from China. Do not please fcukin piss on the helping hand of China by croaking on about Uighurs or Rohingya etc

Superpowers and that includes China do not appreciate being pissed on ....

In the 70s we ended up with a feudal and ideologicaly socialist (the irony i know) in power who significantly ruined US-Pak relations. Socialism being the antithesis of US capitalism, this was never going to end well. With athiest China the equivalent would be an ultra religious person coming to power in Islamabad.
 
pak could have send their people to space even before spending enough time on making nukes
 
Yeah yeah we will reached moon by using this scientific innovation

This makes me really happy. We're a little late in this field but we could catch up. Ironically Pakistan was the first country in this part of the world to have a Space Agency.
Finally we've people in the Government who are thinking about the long term future and not just about the next election.
Space is the future people like it or not. Future weapons will be based in space and the Asteroid Mining Industry will be one of the most lucrative businesses.

And this Space program is really inspiring for the younger generation, we used to look up to NASA and now it's SPACEX. I hope our future generations have Pakistani Astronauts to look up to and an awesome Pakistani space agency.

well every day pakistani youth are going into outer space near the back of red fort lahore..
and thats just for couple 100 rupees?
 
First, send Nawaz Sharif, Showbaz, Zardari and other scum like them and their supporters into space, with a one way ticket.

If you are planning to do something, do it quietly and wait until after it is done. Don't go around screaming out dates like the Indians.
 
Welcome to the Space Race Pakistanis.
What space race? The USSR won that already back in the days.

Russia did that in 1968 on its own and we are doing it in 2022 with the help of china.Seriously how less progressive we subcontinent people are.

Mismanagement, corruption, lack of ethics and absence of justice in all things is THE hallmark of the subcontinent.

Can you stop being disgusting for one second. If you don't have anything constructive to add it's better to stay quite.
And don't quote me next time with such useless comments.
