Space Missions are a Wastage of Resources for a Resource-Starved Nation like India

The space mission are not a waste of money and resources. It is the need of India to stand in globally to compete and to show them that this is not the consumer nation only.

The space research organization like ISRO that successfully launch Mission like Chandrayaan I and the success is admired and used by NASA. Also the ISRO launches satellite of other nations successfully which is another source of money.

Space mission is not a wasteful of resource, infact it contribute towards the development of economy. Without science and technology how can we compete with countries like usa, japan. I agree that we should not waste money on missions like study on mars and moon but other missions like telecast, telecommunication, internet, 3G are very important. India can become developed economy By contributing in all field whether it is education, science, technology, employment etc.

Hello friends. In my opinion Space missions are obviously an integral part of growth of any country. For country like India, I strongly believe that space missions have really put India in the line of developed country. Those who say that a country like India which is starving in resource should not waste money in these fields.

I would like to tell that in the most of the space missions of other countries like USA, Russia Japan there is involvement of Indian scientist as well. They have very crucial role to play in the space agencies of other countries. So if our scientist have the capability then why can't India have its own space missions. As far as the question of resources are concerned I believe that India is not in dearth of any resources. I also believe strongly that India will be second to none in future in the field of space technology.

Space missions are definitely an integral part of our growth and development. It would be utterly foolish to abandon them altogether. They are essential for national security and for the maintenance and development of communication channels. However, spending an indefinite amount of money in these could result in a major financial fiasco when we require money for other noble and important purposes as well. Care should be taken when while allotting money for these missions such that our progress in other fields is not hindered because of that.

If the ministers and political leaders are really invested the money for our country in such a way that each and every field can developed properly then our country do much better in every position. There is a chance to compete with other countries in space, science and technology, because I think we are very intelligent respected to other countries.

But unfortunately the top level ministers just do not invested the money properly, however they kept it in their "pocket". They just think about their sons and daughters and for these people our country is only a developing country in world.

Space mission is one of the greatest achievement a country can achieve. And if among all the countries there is a name "INDIA", it will be a great honor for us. However, there is a space center presents in India called "ISRO" at sriharikota. But still there are lot of improvements needed in space department in our country.

For this, the system need to change much more and the young generation must come forward for betterment of space mission in India.

India got independence way back in 1947, still our country is considered as developing country. This is because of faulty govt policies. Not only space missions, any kind of Research and Development needs money/resources which are usually do not give any profit in the form we need. Our govt should give more importance in creating jobs which will eradicate poverty. The govt should also consider giving less importance to foreign companies which are set up in India in the name giving jobs. In reality India is slowly depending on other country. I worked in a space mission center, I can tell that the so called scientists are not at all that knowledgeable as they are portrayed. They are well payed for not doing anything. They do get all kind of benefits and they do no job at all. And the central govt increase the DA at regular intervals. Most of us do not know the working of satellites, only we watch the launch. Most the satellites do not work as they should do. For layman, one can say, launch was successful means, the launcher worked perfectly, the products which are inside it need not necessarily work. Even if it worked, most of the projects are total waste. Example the chandrayaan. What we have got are photographs. These photographs we be got from NASA site by paying 5 rupees in internet cafe. Someone has mentioned in one of the posting here, that space machines help in forewarning of natural calamities and other planetary collisions, it is ridiculous to think. No scientist gave any clue about tsunami which hit Tamil Nadu. Many earth quakes happens bringing loss of property, no scientific organization have slightest clue about them. If a planet is going to hit, it will most probably destroy the whole earth. It won't hit only India. Even if you consider it will hit India, what are the chances of knowing it beforehand, as our scientists do not have any knowledge of other natural happenings like rain, storm etc. To conclude, all space machines should be slow down. The salary and remunerations enjoyed by these employees should be reduced (They do not deserve even 10 percent of their current salary as they lack knowledge of anything). It is even better if all this organization is shut down permanently.

Hello friends,

I think the space mission are not a wastage of resources, by the space mission we improved our technological skills which can provide a best future for us, by performing the space mission we can achieve treatment of many diseases, like cancer and many more. Other countries, like USA, UK these are developed country and have great advantage in the space mission. In the present scenario we are developing. So if we want to make our country developed then we need to lead our space mission otherwise we will always count in the list of developing countries. Space is is also helpful to our army to make more powerful weapons to protect our country from terrorist.

Hi friends,

In my opinion space mission is not wastage of resource. If we are doing a job perfectly surely it will leads to a greater success through proper planning we can achieve the goal easily. Planning is more important, in space mission we are investing a lot so through proper planning we can develop our thoughts and views and thus our India became a developed country.

Hi Friends, According to me Space missions is not wastage of resources. It will help us in our Technical growth. In today's world every developed country is growing very fast because they are technically very strong and developed. Eg. Before ISRO we are completely depended on Outer countries. But now our ISRO is growing just because of space knowledge we can easily tell about daily weather. With help of that we can judge before and taking appropriate action if any planet is coming towards Earth and going to create any disasters. In short without knowledge of space we can't grow properly and solve many natural problems.

Hi friends this is Punam,

Space mission is not a wastage of resources it is a use of our knowledge which use in wrong way or right way. The world is going to progress and if we say wastage of our resources that is wrong. If there is no any invention then we will lag to our life. Due to space mission we know about different types of hazards or any accidents occurs instantly is known by space research.
