DSN is not free of cost, the service is charged based on use.
You said at a 'good deal" @#140 above didnt you?
So the same package deal cannot be true if a new mission is to be carried out again IF the " good deal" is not agreed with NASA.
Therefore the "cheaper than Hollywood Movie" is misleading and the statement cannot be univerally true . It was too early for ISRO or even reckless to claim that if they did not say part of the reasons for the cheaper cost overall was because of NASA's "good deal" So next time if any potential clients approach you for a Mars venture they will know the cost could be a lot higher than this Mars mission if ISRO have stated like what I said
this mission puts India with few other capable nations,,,,so ofcourse it has its benefits,doesnt matter whether u acknowledge it or not.
I am not denying what you have done in your Mars mission
I am only challenging ISRO's claim of making the venture's cost lower than a Hollywood Movie which is misleading for a third party who does not know " a good deal" with NASA
