‘Minerals extraction is also part of space programme goals’: ISRO

It was a long-term goal of all space research organisations to extract not only gold but also other metals, minerals and energy from other planets said ISRO Chairman K.Radhakrishnan at an interactive session with students and science teachers at the Regional Science Centre and Planetarium here on Friday.

In fact, active research was going on about tapping energy from asteroids, he said. Dr. Radhakrishnan along with Scientific Secretary V.Kodeshwara Rao answered many queries raised by the students.

“Mr. Rao is in the process of developing Astrosat to help astronomers. It will be a great contribution from India to the world,” Dr.Radhakrishnan said. Dr. Radhakrishnan explained the procedure to send a person to space which included a four-year training to survive in various conditions.

He said there were many schemes to resolve the dearth of transponders for communication in the country. India had around 195 transponders in nine communication satellites while 90 had been leased from foreign satellites. There was a requirement of around 150 more transponders that would be met in due course by launching more communication satellites, Dr. Radhakrishnan said. He explained the problems created by satellite debris in space and how it was being managed by sending them to a graveyard orbit.

Dr.Radhakrishnan was in Kozhikode for the launch of Potential Fishing Zone (PFZ) forecasts for fishermen in Kannur on Saturday. The system developed by ISRO has been successfully implemented in Gujarat. With the help of the forecast, fishermen will be able to identify and go to the area where the density of fish is high.

Yea riiiight

Indian space program is nothing but a program to satisfy the jingoistic population of India.

That's why when they touch the moon they boast and quickly move to the next thing so they can touch that and boast some more. If ISRO was a legitimate space organisation, then they would go step by step from manned space to space station to lunar exploration.

But ISRO is a propaganda organisation that works to the political regime in power to get their party approval ratings up to get votes and win elections. This is the real agenda behind an organisation like ISRO.

ISRO has never been a legitimate space organisation, it's very clear from what they are doing. They might fool the domestic Indian population with help from the media mouthpieces brainwashing the Indian public but they don't fool us. We see right through them for what the real purpose of ISRO is and what agenda they serve.

But Indian fanboys here don't like to hear the truth except for maybe a couple of members.

Why do you want to ruin a thread with a comment like that....... ? you dont gain anything by posting such comments.

So according to you this is the only way to become a legitimate space organization? are u kidding me! Even most Chinese members wont agree to such a statement.

If you read the article u will understand the
1. He says that its a long term goal
2. Its an interaction with students & teachers in a Planetarium!

something significant your chinese moon probes did which we are missing ?

Chinese moon missions have been the worst moon missions ever planned .. nothing you guys discovered except maybe some photographs of other side of the moon..

Pretty rich coming from you guys especially when the people working in chinese space missions are a drag on the entire chinese economy !

don't give reply to the Chinese post, they are here only for trolling and criticizing.

 

[ptltejas]

Well chinese are attacking much more nowadays. something fishy?




well on point; Hillium-3 or Hillium-4 is the main thing for the getting for produce energy and hence all eye on moon and even USA.

the Mars mission is planned by 2 private organisation even not by NASA. in one mission it is planned to go near orbit of mars and back to the earth and no landing
In the other mission it is planned for the send permanently human on Mars and shall not be returned to earth.

It is extremely hard to send the person to the mars and also to landing there and returned to earth. on moon gravity is less where as to send some different space craft which lends on mars and also return is hard thing.

While I applaud the effort if ISRO, there should be massive focus on mineral extraction from the ocean bottom....as well

 

[Shabaz Sharif]

Please dont forget your ancient brothers across the border after you guys conquer the space

 

[imperialmen]

I think if mineral extraction was a long term goal, why not setup another organization for exploring ocean bottom same way?

Its pretty human-centric to think that the only minerals are available on land. And then space?!

And yo were the guy who once claimed that a JH 7 can easily shoot down an Su 30 MKI...

Sad... just sad... This is what happens when you hand a country like Ethiopia a bunch of money... The baniyas have no idea how to spend it and use it on useless things like space when they could be feeding the poor in India.
