Indian Space Capabilities

[debashish_j20]

Are you serious? You're really going to bring up that anti-Chinese propaganda?

China works hard for decades to improve its technology. The rumors of "stealing technology" is a nasty anti-Chinese whisper campaign. There is never any proof.

India cannot accomplish in a few years on milestones that took China decades. You Indians are indisputably big cheaters. I have to grit my teeth every time I hear about another Indian "indigenous" marvel. Indian, my foot.

chinese people like you should be permanently banned from the forum....mods take note of this guy plzzz.

kids do enjoy fireworks but you have to burst your own crackers this time like the one in February 15th, 1996

I know, this is what, 16 years ago?? India however puts up fireworks on annual basis as a homage to China.

Not a laughing matter. It killed a lot of your countrymen.

China has moved on. It is 16 years already.

China has moved on. It is 16 years already.

Moving on is different from making a joke about it.

Are sure?? your spent rocket stages still fall on your country side.

But even after 16 years still it is a great achievement ..
Chinese Space Agency holds the distinction of the only space agency that kills it's own citizens..

Instead of mocking each other . we should congratulate each other, one asian country made its own space station, other found water molecules on moon....Both are planning to send an orbital to Mars.....Collaboration (if possible) in space department can do wonders. So in the end, lets don't bring politics in science, like we did with religion.

Isro Satellite Centre gets new director

S K Shivakumar, scientist and associate director, of Isro Satellite Centre (Isac), Bangalore, on Saturday took over as the director of the centre, replacing T K Alex. Isac is Indian Space Research Organisation's premier centre for conceptualisation, design, fabrication, testing, integration and in-orbit commissioning of satellite systems involving various cutting-edge technologies.

Shivakumar began his carrier in Isro by joining Isro Telemetry, Tracking and Command Network (ISTRAC) in 1976 at Sriharikota and later served Isac for two decades (1978-1998) during which he was involved in mission planning, analysis and operations of several Indian satellite missions including Bhaskara, APPLE, IRS and Insat. He served as mission director for IRS-1B and IRS-1C satellites which successfully completed a decade of operations in orbit.

From September 1998 to November 2010, Shivakumar was director, Isro Telemetry, Tracking and Command Network (Istrac), which maintains the large constellation of Indian remote sensing satellites in orbit and provides support to satellite launch vehicle missions with a worldwide network of ground stations.

Shivakumar was also the project director for realising India's first indigenous deep space network antenna that measures 32 meters (100 feet) in diameter at Byalalu near Bangalore. This antenna was used for communicating with Chandrayaan-1, India's first mission to the moon, and will also serve future deep space missions. Besides, he played a key role in realising the entire ground segment for Chandrayaan-1 mission including the Indian Space Science Data Centre at Byalalu.

An postgraduate in physical engineering from the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, Shivakumar has represented Isro in several national and international committees, advisory groups and conferences, including United Nations Committee on Peaceful Use of Outer Space, Vienna, Inter-Operability Plenary and Inter-agency Operations Advisory Group. His current research interests are in the areas of highly capable space systems, autonomy in space systems and large antenna systems.

Challenger exploded, Americans died, so NASA must suck, too. India must be number one then.

Nearly a hundred Americans have died for NASA missions, and a thousand for the Soviet Missions. Great programs have casualties it is just a part of it, so try get your pea sized brain on it.

That's all they are allowed to enjoy.

Their mothers' and sisters' womb is scraped by the CCP goons if they just want the normal happiness of procreation that is available to people all over the world except you know where.

The pathetic mindset of the spoilt brats is easy enough to understand. We should just let the pathetic beings be.

ISROs Oceansat2 satellite data was used to report greenland ice melt.. gloomy news about melt, but isro-nasa co-op is bearing some good result for mankind!
