Yeah but doing science vanity projects as a dick measuring competition is not science but simply a dick measuring project. There are other countries as rich and more technically capable than India who have not gone to the moon or have done so in joint projects, countries like th UK and Germany are secure, stable, have very little crime/ open defecation, spent their tax monies on building a country inclusive for all. India could have achieved more with less if only it stops trying to pretend to be some super-power, a power that is extremely scared to take on the likes of China so will always pick on it's smaller neighbours and even then gets it teeth kicked in. LOL.
