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

I would say that, space programme of launching satellite to earths orbit for purpose like remote sensation, weather forecasting, communication purpose, 4g, 3g etc are very important for our day -to-day life. But mission like chandrayan mission for moon, mars mission etc are useless. What would b their uses, even if we are able to get water on them?

Useless, its just a stage of I would say that, no doubt space programme such as launching satellite to earths orbit for various resources. Instead of focusing on such useless mission we should focus on how to improve our other satellite system. Why to search water/land on them? When we have already water able barren that desert?

Why don't we spend money on that land to make it fertile? You may say, Indira Gandhi canal is there, but why don't we construct one more to improve more, there are many points Mars and Moon mission are useless.

Space missions definitely seem to be extravagant, wasteful endeavors. But they are acts of exploration. And Humanity cannot exist with exploring new frontiers. Remember the Neanderthals and our ancestors who lived side by side. The Neanderthals were conservative and did not wander into dangerous territory. If they're rare wandering hit a water body, they would stop, if they confronted a mountain, they would stop.

Humans were crazy and irrationally insane. If we hit a water body we would swim, a mountain would make us climb. We did over and over, but when one died another was ready to try again. Imagine how many people drowned to reach Easter Island for an example. We loved to stare death in the face over and over again. And yet now Homo Sapiens rule the earth. And the Neanderthals are extinct in their graves. Space is just another large ocean. So now tell me whether we should swim in it.

Literally space missions are the part and parcel of complete wastage of our resources. If our half of the population is forced to die due to starvation then what is the use of investing trillions of dollars upon it? Human exist on the earth only in this entire universe. Human being is blessed with divine powers they should be loved cared, and helped at any cost. I want to see happiness in the eyes of each and every human being on this planet. For ex, Swami Vivekananda and Lord Buddha served the humanity they didn't go to the moon and mars. They helped humanity. In the same way, if we live with peace n love among us there is no need of wars. And there will be no required wars among the nations.

Hi, here Ganesh.

I think space propagation Is the important part for nation why because our country now on the developing track. Unless few European countries are already developing in space research. We also take over them. So many things get from space mission. Like communication, and others land information so it for beneficial to our future generations. So keep development in space mission.

I am in the motion of the topic. India is a developing country and to make it a developed country, we need to make full usage of the resources provided to us and after we have established ourselves as a developed country, then we can think about space missions. Half the people in India live below the poverty line and we need to support them.

In my opinion, Indian exploration to space has a great opportunity to be invested by many under developing countries. When we were in war with Pakistan in 1999. USA stopped the GPS system. But now India have its own navigation system which means we are not dependent on such kind of purpose now.

Space missions are simply the missions for the exploration of celestial structures in outer space. The most common purpose of which they are undertaken is for proxy wars. But India is now earning from the space missions and also the advance expertise and the low-cost program achievements have proved that it can become a contributor to the GDP. India is developing rapidly so it is important to tap all of the possible sectors to become world's major economic power.

It is good for our country because if we feel proud of our scientists and appreciate their work then they will do their work with more interest and this will also create more job opportunity for Indian.

Actually, I have a question.

If we launch a multistage rocket which has other countries satellites and while launching it fails. What should we do after that?

I think space missions are not a wastage of our Indian economy because by that only.

1. We are able to compete with developed countries like USA, Russia, etc.

2. We are solving problems of poverty as the space programme is giving employment to many youths.

3. By Chandrayaana only the world came to know that there is water in moon and also mars.

4. It is helping in communication system.

5. It is helping in our defense system ex:- surgical strike.

6. By satellites, we will come to know the upcoming natural disasters.

Someone said that scientists are busy in useless research but by their useless research only India is able to compete with other countries. I am not saying that you should invest so much of money in space programme they have limits for that and they are doing well.

Thank you.
