at least give valid links.. China may be doing research in thorium nuclear tech.. India is WAY WAY ahead.

India's three-stage nuclear power programme - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"India is generally considered as the leader of thorium based research in the world.[32][10] It is also by far the most committed nation as far as the use of thorium fuel is concerned, and no other country has done as much neutron physics work on thorium.[33] The country published about twice the number of papers on thorium as its nearest competitors during each of the years from 2002 to 2006.[7] Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) had the highest number of publications in the thorium area, across all research institutions in the world during the period 1982-2004. During this same period, India ranks an overall second behind the United States in the research output on Thorium.[34] Analysis shows that majority of the authors involved in thorium research publications appear to be from India.[35] According to Siegfried Hecker, a former director (1986–1997) of the Los Alamos National Laboratory in the U.S., "India has the most technically ambitious and innovative nuclear energy programme in the world. The extent and functionality of its nuclear experimental facilities are matched only by those in Russia and are far ahead of what is left in the US."[10]"

@SinoSoldier

We've already done a succesful lunar mission back in 2008,and it made a key discovery - Lunar water.

water thingy is a hoax by indians

the soviet unions discovered it long before indians who like to take credit where they dont deserve

Also a orbiter+ lander + rover mission to moon would be undertaken,2015-2016 timeframe

go planning for your bloack II and an exit plan then the rescheduling and budget over runs - as usual!
you can also outsource it to France / Russia!

The fact is our Aircraft carrier would be ready by 2 years,keep whining.

And sorry,we are ahead of your Thorium MSRs.

 

[timetravel]

This kind of thinking is exactly why India WON'T.

even if you stay in your denialism forever, the world will not stop from progressing.

see another denialist.... refusing to bring head out of sand.

ok am sleeping..good night everyone..

the line is from Telegraph's reporting

Tell me the report from Telegraph is fake!

That was all done during 2002~2006 in respect of the paper production!

What is your latest outcome despite the publications and the american cheerleading?

So far ahead that the United States wanted to partner with China in thorium research?

India is ahead of China in key technical fields.... this being one of them. Indian spy satellites monitor China's every inch 24*7.

it seems you haven't read the article. go read it again properly.

Can you provide links to lens and sensor manufacturers of Indian sats? Maybe, the lead has more to do with not having to deal with sanctions and easy access to western components for system integration while China has to manufacture most key components(hence greater degree of self reliance). In any case they should be able to make rs sats of latest standards with all in house components within 2-5 years.

Saurav Jha's Blog : The Thorium Question - An interview with India's nuclear czar

Of late there is renewed interest in thorium based nuclear power in other countries as well. China for instance is beginning to prioritize this as a research area, especially the investigation into molten salt reactor (MSR) technology for thorium utilization. Is there any danger of India's lead in the thorium domain eroding?

To the best of my knowledge nobody in the world has, till date, closed the thorium fuel cycle on an industrial scale. I think, our activities in the area of thorium research are more advanced towards that end than anybody else's. Our leadership in the area of scientific publications covering thorium based research establishes that. India is also investigating Molten Salt Reactor (MSR) technology. We have molten salt loops operational at BARC.

India's satellites are mostly assemblies of foreign parts，or worse still，directly foreign made，due to its unlimited access to western technology。

India can't even make its own CCD cameras。

Name one major payload aboard India's satellite that's Indian made？

 

[Banana]

do go on a free ride again cheerleader!
how is the 2-generation behind india's satellite imaginery techniques come about?

how much revenue has india been able to generate out of this business?

A new satellite launch is every 3-4 years in the remote sensing arena.

Every satellite is more advanced than its precedor. China cannot cut short the curve without completing it.

According to Zhou Zi Kuan, director of international business development at CRESDA, a unit of the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corp, Chinese satellites performance are on par with Spot 5 (2002) and Cartosat 1 (2005).

France launched Spot 6 and Spot 7 will be launched by year end.

Cartosat 2, 2A and 2B have already been launched by India after Cartosat 1.

Cartosat 3 has resolution of 25 cm. It will be the most advanced satellite in the World for remote sensing.

ISRO plans a new high-resolution earth satellite - The Hindu

The Indian Space Research Organisation is to build a remote sensing satellite, Cartosat-3, capable of taking images of the earth with a resolution of 0.25 metres.

Currently, GeoEye-1 produces the highest resolution earth images taken by a commercial satellite. The American spacecraft, launched in September 2008, is capable of taking panchromatic images with 0.41 metre resolution. WorldView-2, another satellite operated by the same company, DigitalGlobe, offers a best resolution of 0.46 metres. However, in accordance with U.S. regulations, commercially released images from these satellites are degraded to 0.5 metre resolution.

DigitalGlobe plans to launch WorldView-3 next year, which will supply images with a resolution of 0.31 metres. Cartosat-3’s camera would better that performance. In the words of one expert, this satellite's images could allow a scooter to be distinguished from a car.

In the ‘Notes on Demands for Grants, 2013-2014’ from the Department of Space, which forms part of the budget documents presented to Parliament recently, Cartosat-3 figures as a separate item with an allocation of Rs. 10 crores. “Cartosat-3 is an advanced remote sensing satellite with enhanced resolution of 0.25 metre for cartographic applications and high-resolution mapping,” the document said.

IN 1988, ISRO launched India’s first operational remote-sensing satellite, IRS-1A. The best resolution its cameras could provide was about 36 metres. Seven years later, IRS-1C went into space, with a panchromatic camera that had a resolution of 5.8 metres. It supplied the highest resolution images available from any civilian satellite in the world till Ikonos, an American satellite launched in 1999, began taking images with better than one-metre resolution. India launched the Technology Experiment Satellite in 2001, followed some years later by the Cartosat-2 series of satellites that could take images with 0.8 metre resolution.

DF-2 to be launched late 2013 has 0.8 metres resolution. That matches Cartosat-2 performance.

That is why China is generations behind India in Satellite imagery.

Precisely。

Yet our Indian friends here easily go high on western technology and treat it as their own。

Shameless bunch。

Let's assume all of this to be true, which I doubt, but let's assume so.

So what? We can't do everything at once, we are advancing at great speed in almost every field, the key word is ALMOST. No one can claim to be the best at everything. We don't have enough men who can do the job. Though we do have a lot, but the people who can actually lead such teams are limited in any country.

This topic is very specific. You are not saying space program, or something like that but just one thing. It's like a guy is boasting to have got full marks on one question while failed the test to a guy who got the question wrong, but got 90%.

We are launching satellites at a break neck speed, and our space program is one that could lead the world in 2030, when we land on the moon. By then we will also have a space station, and all that. You could doubt whether we could do it, but our space program has given no sign that it should be doubted.

As to the claim India will be Israel, it's possible, but Israel is not a tech super power, they are very specific in what they can do. They are not the best across the board. A lot of fields they are contributing next to nothing.

But to claim we will be the same as middle east, so we will go backwards?

whenever indians declare a deadline you need to add another 10 years for actual delivery

And sorry,we are ahead of your Thorium MSRs.
