Fine...ISRO will always cost less than NASA....first reason will be labor cost(including intellectual labors) is lower in India....and second ISRO is smaller(in terms of manpower) than NASA.....It is extremely costly to go to the moon I don't see any reason behind it....The US did not and I repeat did not go to the moon to do scientific research....They were at war with the USSR.....even if you leave out the international image of the US at that time they had actual military threat from the USSR....a military moon base at that time was not impossible....India on the other hand has no such threat.....India can send robots(way more cheaper and practical than sending humans)....infact India can try to return sample from the surface of the moon using robots....that will be a real milestone in-terms of technology....with the age of information-technology more and more countries will want to send satellites....and there are a lot of countries that are richer than India or rich enough to maintain satellites but does not have a big enough economy to maintain an active program to send satellites....India can get into the delivery system business.....money talks...so people will actually appreciate this more than informed decision making and saving lives from disasters!
But did you know India is trying to bring samples of helium-3,which could be our future fuel.
And the technology that India has developed at such low costs can be sold at exorbitant price.
right now it is unmanned...isnt it???@levina .. your reply suggests we should go for cheap unmanned mission.. no?
