So first orbital launch of gslv mk3 is in 2017. Thats a little dissapointing.

For a totally new launch vehicle like GSLV Mk III ...3 years from first experimental flight is not bad .

although GSLV Mk III has been delayed by almost 4 years ....

the GSLV Mk III experimental flight was initially envisaged almost back in 2010 ...when it was first announced at the beginning on this millennium ...

RISAT-1A after 2017 ???

Do they think 2 satellites are enough??

 

[faithfulguy]

How many here believe the manned space launch by 2030 date?

I don't. I personally consider it a waste of money.

What he meant was; how many here believe it'll take India another decade above their present schedule to realize the manned space launch?

I don't pay much attention to him because his job is to drop in every thread in the Indian sections and troll.

Human space mission is important first step towards space exploration in 'future'.

We need to prepare for future in advance .

as technologies advance , the moon mining and colonization of mars may become reality after another hundred years . We should not be left behind when it happens .

India's entry will actually lead to decrease in cost of space exploration .

It should be viewed as investment in future than wastage of money .

we waste far larger quantum of our resources anyways .

Money spent on science is never wasted !

RISAT-1A after 2017 ???

RISAT is one of the most sophisticated satellite ISRO has. It took ISRO 10 years to develop its payloads.
we do have two RISAT satellites functioning at the moment . I think 2017 is not bad after all given so many missions that ISRO has up its sleeves to work upon .

ISRO needs more launch pads , more launch vehicles , more launch missions , more man power ....and they are doing it gradually .
