    no logical sense except the indigenous technology advancements that make sure india doesn’t need to rely on others for crucial operations (US denying gps info to india comes to mind) along with the money that they earn from private satellite launches, yes.

    i wonder why this is so easy for you, surely it isn’t because you are conveniently ignoring all the positives of a space program.

      If they were doing it for real reasons…

      They’d have launched a few big ones.

      Not just throwing a bunch of junk into space to beat a record no one else is trying to beat.

      Although, to be honest I thought no one would be dumb enough to fall for the propaganda and think any of the stuff people keep bringing up in this thread was worth bragging about.

      But I can admit when I’m wrong.

        what reasons are real enough for you?

        is a navigation system real enough? are weather satellites helping with disasters and saving lives real enough? is telecommunications real enough? is the millions they earn from private satellites real enough?

        i’m sorry all of this falls under propaganda for you. for me personally, these are all real enough to warrant a space program.

        But I can admit when I’m wrong

        doesn’t look like it

          His brain thinks a country that can successfully launch rockets surely doesn’t have what it takes to build a secure linux distro. You think that brain is capable of admitting to mistakes?
