Indian Space Capabilities

:cuckoo::omghaha:.......congress only vision is how to remain in power.

It doesn't matter which politician is in the department of space because his/her advisers are the secretary and the Chairman of Space Commission, both come from ISRO. These two persons head the committees that formalize the policies. So my dear frnd, stop your nonsense rants about your mai/baap congress.

No they don't. And you're just full of BS. Don't cook up stuff on your own. ISRO if a GOVT. body, budgets, slaries, policies everything needs to be approved by GOI. Every year the ISRO chairman flies down to the GOI with budgets and suggested programs. When the GOI gives approval, he begins to pay for salarie, starts/stops projects and stuff. He can't move his pencil without this.

Again stop peddling nonsense, congress has got no vision, except how to remain in power. That is what they have been doing for the last 60 yeras.

yeah, and when 3 GSLVs fail and the chief wants money (400 Crores) to go for the next one, or when they want to create space suits they just sprinkle pixie dust and expect fairies to bring large bags of cash. Every single penny with ISRO is provided by the Union Budget. When you talk of moon missions manned missions and mars missions, that's not the GOI's vision that they are backing with real cash, but it just pops out of the sky? Fact is that in India, you have a govt. that recognizes the true complexity of the missions and never interferes- I can assure you that in other countries when a program has seen multiple failures (like GSLV that's cost us no less than 1 Billion USD in losses till now over a DECADE), they'll immedeately do the rambo act, sack scientists to show 'results'. (and eventually see their programs in the dust-bin). It is an enormus accomplishment of the congress to promote a risk taking agency. In India, all that GOI does is ask them to go back to the drawing board, guarantees non interfrence, and publicly supports them AT ALL TIMES. Your manned mission is funded by GOI too:

Development of a fully autonomous orbital vehicle to carry a two-member crew into a low-Earth orbit (LEO) has already begun. ISRO sources said the flight is likely to be in 2016. Government had allocated 950 million (US$16.3 million) for pre-project initiatives for 2007 through 2008. A manned mission into space would require about 124 billion (US$2.1 billion) and a period of seven years. Planning Commission estimates that a budget of 50 billion (US$860.0 million) is required for initial work on the manned mission during the eleventh five-year plan (2007–12). A project report prepared by ISRO has been cleared by space commission.[5][

And you think the congress is not showing 'vision'? Where possible, isn't it making money available for such long term projects?

Fighting for tech in MTCR (when the whole world was against us), fighting for Cryo tech, continuing with the program even when the world made fun of us (for decades)- all these were integral elements of congress wantign to make India a space power. When you talk about all these big accomplishments remember it was because of decades of support and funding by the congress that has made ISRO what it is today.

Countdown begins for PSLV-C22 carrying IRNSS-1A - Brahmand.com

CHENNAI (PTI): The 64-and-a-half-hour countdown for the launch of PSLV-C22, carrying India's first dedicated navigation satellite IRNSS-1A on July 1, began on Saturday at Satish Dhawan Space Centre at Sriharikota, some 80 km from here.

"The 64-and-a-half-hour countdown for the launch of PSLV-C22, which will carry IRNSS-1A started this morning at 7.11 AM. We are on schedule and everything is normal," ISRO spokesman Deviprasad Karnik told PTI.

ISRO said the satellite, with navigation and ranging payloads, would provide accurate positional information to users as well as the whole region extending up to 1500 km from its boundary.

IRNSS-1A has already been mounted on an 'XL' version of the launch vehicle, ISRO's 24th mission of a PSLV.

IRNSS-1A, which will be launched at 11.41 PM on July 1, is one of seven satellites constituting the Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS) space segment.

Can anybody tell me what is the propellant/mixture used in Indian boosters/rocket versus that used by other countries? Indian ones leave a trail of heavy smoke whereas when you see the latest launch by China, the one a few months ago by South Korea, etc., they emit a small blue flame (similar to kerosene stove) with a tadtadi sound.
