What happened to our own GSLV? Are we not spending a little too much towards it and not getting and equal results? We should have been sending our satalites with our own rockets by now...
All that ISRO does is a waste of money. If they launch satallites at this rate satallites will become obselete. Big power in the world are launching satallites every week and we launch one or two a year. Even if we have launched so many satallites where is the outcome. Has the telepone standard increased or the internet bandwidth higher, nothing has happened. People join ISRO to get good experience and then run to USA. All the services are rendered to USA. The problem is as a nation we do not have a strong leader not the motivation to go ahead.
This is just another medicore effort by our medicore ISRO, which is bloated into thinking it is one of the best. That's what's wrong with us, we think we are the best in everything: - best culture - best food - best democracy - best cell phone network - best software - best engineering institutes - best traditions - best cricket team etc. etc.
if you compare ISRO's efforts with those of international space agencies, you'll find that we are quite perky.
When are we going to shake off this lethargy and really start becoming the best
What happened to our own Satellite launch vehicle ? Last time we had launched one of the INSAT through our own 3 stage rocket and failed put it in geo-stationary orbit.
How long we will have to depend on foreign agency to launch our satellites?
We have perfected the Satellite technology and now we should develop a perfect launch vehicle of our own.

Nothing has happened to India's space program. It is currently sitting in the backyard on orders or USA.
We should congractulate the team of ISRO, who did a great job in achieving it. But I think after the succesful test launch, we should have given more effort in getting GSLV in place rather than awarding two more contracts to some one else. Also it is high time that our govt. organizations change their attitude and try to respect the peoples talent as well, else we will see more and more scientist quitting jobs and joining private organizations.
how amazing, we have come so far and we stil dont realize it unless we read it in the newspapers. go ahead sky is the limit and put some good modern sophisticated military satellites up there, so that even US does not scare us.
This is an important quantum jump towards the complete self-reliant space research. Hope we will make the giant leap of launching a space vehicle in a decade. Congratulations and salutations.
