India overtakes Canada in space competitiveness: report

Is that so? India is on an ascending path by every indicator from economic to military, contrast to Canada, which is stuck; forever breastfeeding off America. Friend, India is set to become the most influential and powerful country before the end of the decade. Do not be surprised about articles like these because more will continue to surface. It really is no surprise that Canada is unable to keep up, but then, not a lot of countries can.

I doubt you are Indian

2011 competitiveness trends for 10 leading nations

The United States remains the overall leader in space competitiveness, but its relative position continues to decline as other countries enhance their capabilities while the U.S. undergoes major transitions, particularly in the arena of human spaceflight.

Europe combines integrated space activity with individual country efforts, which have proliferated through the formation of new national space initiatives across the continent—from the United Kingdom to the Czech Republic to Estonia—as well as more assertive space export financing.

Russia continues to lead the world in launches, and is poised for increased activity, with a vital role transporting astronauts and cargo to the International Space Station, as well as the introduction of Soyuz launches from the European spaceport at Kourou.

China performed a record number of launches in 2010, matching the United States for the first time, while increasing investment in technical education programs and civilian research institutes.

Japan has strengthened its competitive position through space policy reforms that continue to filter through government and industry. But in the 2011 results, these gains were not enough to maintain Japan’s position relative to China’s rapid ascent.

India, one of only two countries to leapfrog positions in the 2011 results, is enhancing its space-related technical education in pursuit of next-generation launch goals.

Canada
retains a skilled space workforce, and Canadian space companies performed well in 2010, but delays in space policy refresh and implementation offset its competitive edge.

South Korea has undergone an organizational shakeup following two failed launch attempts, and remains determined to become the newest country to achieve independent spaceflight.

Israel offers niche entrepreneurial strengths, but is challenged by a lack of domestic industry scale and difficulty sustaining a commercial space presence in global markets.

Brazil has begun to re-examine its national space priorities, expanded its international partnerships, and laid plans for a new launch vehicle. It remains to be seen whether these steps will keep Brazil ahead of other countries in the region that also are emerging onto the space scene.
 
hey thats a really good news , we are better than canada , the credit must go to ISRO .
 
Too bad the standard of living in Canada is 40 times that of India. People actually want to live in Canada. Who really wants to move to India?

what has standards of living got to do with space technology troll ........in that way there can't be comparision between chinese economy and american economy , since china is a communist while america is a democracy , i am sure you can dig out the relation between economy and political system.

This is from the 2010 report

India

India’s space program continues to mature by incrementally developing new organizational and technical capability. While 70% of its space program targets societal benefits—mostly communications and Earth observation—the country’s exploration program is fast emerging, including its first dedicated astronomy satellite, Astrosat, and the Indian military is also investing. As Futron Senior Program Manager Jay Gullish puts it, “India has world-class aspirations for its space program, and the Indian space workforce is underpinned by a strong belief in hard work and determination. It is clear India is emerging as a major collaborative space power, but arriving at that goal will be based on the achievement of steadily escalating technology milestones.”
