ISRO sends 104 satellites in one go, breaks world record

[eXpl0sive]

Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) scripted history today by successfully launching a record 104 satellites, including India's earth observation satellite, on a single rocket from the spaceport in Sriharikota.

This is the highest number of satellites ever launched in a single mission.

The ISRO is doing a great job. And it should be remembered that unlike the Chinese, they are not stealing anyone's technology and plagiarizing it. They are innovative, and the scientists have developed their own techniques to launch the satellites.

ISRO has the competition so scared, the US space companies lobby to maintain ban on using Indian rockets. Certainly this will keep those corporations run for some more time, but eventually they'll either have to play along by doing innovations to bring their costs down or bite the dust.

I thought that India was left behind in terms of technology. But this news amazes me and informed me that my views and idea about India is wrong. This article will explain that India has progressed in the field of science and has even break the world record of the highest number of satellites ever launched in a single mission to space. This has opened up my curiosity of investigating and researching more information about India not only in the field of science but also in economy, culture and governance.

Great achievement by ISRO

I absolutely agree with you. I also like India more than China. I do not understand why in the world there is no reaction to the industrial espionage of China. If I watch a pirated copy of the film, then I'm a criminal, but what about China?

Bah, technology stealing is a good thing from my point of view.

The Chinese may not have invented the art of industrial espionage. But they were the ones who mastered it. No one can beat them in the art of making pirated copies at cutthroat prices. I feel bad for the hard working scientists of the United States, European Union, Russia and Japan, whose creations are shamelessly plagiarized by the Chinese.

I can not understand, if indeed all countries suffer such losses from industrial espionage to the Chinese, why there is still no consolidated position on combating the country. This is beneficial to all.

That is the thing about the internet, it is very hard to trace who is hacking you. If chinese hackers take over a computer in Europe and route all their espionage through that server, it looks like someone in Europe is hacking you. They'll also wipe out any records that they were on the server in the first place. That is how you get away with stealing corporate secrets and it never being traced back to you. China also supplies a lot of items around the world at very cheap prices, so if you annoy them and they ban exports to you - the public will get very upset at having to pay a little more.

Back on topic: It is great to see another country investing so much in space exploration, because if humans are to survive then we need to spread out from a single planet.

Pakistan could never compete with India. Pakistan is a country which can only harm the neighbors. Economy and development of this country at a very low level. All they can earn is war.
