Indian Space Capabilities

[Vinod2070]

No it is not producing results fast enough. It is just as lousy as DRDO. The cryo engine is 20 years late. We are still decades behind. A private company like SpaceX built a rocket from scratch without boosters and sent a higher payload to GEO (Not GTO) in just 5 years. I am grateful to the scientists, but when we have hoax stats like 40% of Nasa scientists ar Indians, its s shame that we will need at least 2 more decades before we build a rocket that has the same capabilitites as the Atlas rocket that the US built almost 6 decades back.

These comparisons can be meaningless. America has a bunch of very experienced Scientists and a history of space exploration. So "starting from scratch" means very different there.

India is the first Asian country to Mars, that is some achievement.

May be ISRO can do better but it is still better than most government institutions.

India has not yet reached Mars. The injection into Mars orbit is the most difficult part of the mission.

We started from scratch before China. Whats the excuse there?

Dont be so sure, its plagued by politics, spies and sabotage. Unkil has a hand in all three. ISRO needs to be rebuilt from scratch and be cleansed of its mallu dominance. Our best engineers come from Bihar and UP. They all go to IIT and then the US. Very small footprint of north Indian scientists in ISRO.

Please spare this thread.Go take regionalism somewhere else.

You're wrong.

Why should I make any excuse?

Pakistan started before India, what have they done?

It is a matter of priorities and funding. May the Chinese had better of both.

China got immense help from the Soviet Union in space field including cryogenic engine technology .

Thats nonsense, Russia's first cryo engine was tested on the Indian GSLV.

You must be kidding

Look at the date .

No regionalism bro. Im just giving you an insider view of ISRO. Please tell me by what stretch of imagination is it ok to have nearly 30% of ISRO scientists as makkus and a further 20% as tamils? south india contributes to more than 80% of ISRO scientists. Now compare that to intake at IIT's. Nearly 70% of intake comes from Bihar, UP, WB and Andhra of late. If thats not odd, I dont know what is.

????????????

welcome to the real world.

Where is the data?

You are wrong.

He is completely wrong actually.......
Most no. of students get selected from Andhra Pradesh.

You are wrong.

ISRO has open houses every 6 months in all itsmajor locations. If you were really interested you would go. IIT entry data state wise is also made available every year. if you were interested you would check.


and no, i am not wrong. the first russian cryo engine to ever fly was the kvd 1 on the gslv. dont hate me for being the messenger.

I mentioned Andhra.

I mentioned Andhra.

Dude ISRO takes students from mains exam and not from IIT so all you theory is wrong.....
