no, i am just being real.
isro must study why spacex, established 2002, is the most successful private space agency, with three luggage delivery trips already to the "international space station" and radical design of rockets and human mission possible by end of 2017.
as long as isro is not staffed by creative and radical college dropouts, they will remain an agency which uses designs or technologies that others have discarded or rejected.
come on... isro has been basically a satellite maker... there are private companies like "surrey satellite" that do that... only difference is that isro sometimes launches its products by itself.
sorry to say but isro is inspiring only the hyper-patriotic triple-college-degree indian graduate types... those are hardly the most innovative people.
let isro start on innovation by designing a microprocessor and operating system.
i support them, because they are generally doing something like this at start-up level though i read that some big company ( tata?? ) will be supplying them the communication system.
and i must say they must be more creative on the design of their vehicle... it looks straight off the vid created by the organizers committee from 2008.
YES Tata is partnering them......
But I do not agree with your first post.
You basically insulted our scientists and all their efforts, Scientists like APJ Abdul Kalam to Vikram Sarabhai.
You were basically comparing USA a advanced and developed country with a $18 trillion economy with excellent scientific base and institutes with practically best resources to INDIA a impoverished country with little scientific base and money. ISRO is what it is , it does its job well........obviously there is always room for improvement.
Degrees or not ISRO possess some of the best minds in the world, and they choose to work for INDIA rather than NASA.
