Then clearly you are jealous. Just because you don’t understand what the benefits of a space program is, does not mean it is a waste of time and money. **Today the space launch market is about $350 billion **and India just made the case for a chunk of it. They will more than recover $74 million on this project even if they manage to get 1% of that market. In the process, they will hone their skills in missile development. Once that money starts flowing, even with corrupt politicians, there is bound to be change for the rest of the country.

And benefit to mankind?

Where did that go?

I do like your posts by the way. But here you seem to have gone with the wrongful but popular belief.
