Nothing to worry about here, they’ll probably go at night.
Doesn’t that just increase the number of stars they need to dodge?
Still waiting for them to launch a mission to get rid of the caste system
If the US can go to space while issuing drone strikes on civilians, if Russia can go to space while invading countries, I don’t see why India can’t go to space while still being backwards about the caste system. Also it’s not like the government endorses the caste system, unlike the aforementioned examples.
Whataboutism bs. Two wrongs don’t make a right.
Yeah but I didn’t see anyone complaining when NASA Artemis was announced? Everyone rejoiced NASA’s return to space. So why the double standard towards India? Credit where credit is due don’t you think?
Also what’s the caste system has anything to do with the Indian government? How do you think the government has enforced it? What do you think the government should do instead? I am not Indian mind you, but I am sick of these holier than thou attitude of westerners.
Credit is definitely due and this is an amazing feat by India.
I haven’t bothered to discuss the other topic. Is there even any point when US issues are always on the front page here? I probably know more about US politics than my own country at this point.
Though of course you could also go there and take a jab at Americans. Let me know when you do so I can give you some support.
How is that related to the space mission? Or are we trying to make this look like a Reddit comment section now?
It is when so much of their population struggles in poverty 🙃

Even though I couldn’t find any connection between a space mission to sun and casteism, I could assure you friend the latter is much difficult to solve. That’s why countries still struggle with casteism or racism or sexism or some other evil-ism, but we shouldn’t let it hold us back from the technical and scientific advancements. In fact one could argue building a science oriented society is the way to eradicate these issues.
I love it when people act like America doesn’t have a fucking caste system. As though there weren’t millions of Americans who voted for a rich guy who planned to build a wall to keep the “illegals” out of the country. And there wasn’t a massive lobbyist effort by multi-billion dollar companies and oligarchs to kill unemployment benefits in order to push people back into shitty service jobs that pay peanuts.
whatever or whoever they land on the sun will no longer be in any system, so maybe this is the first step?
I mean if anything for sure it will be in a system, the solar system. Not in original form though…
keep waiting bitch
This one will be tougher to land on.
And hotter, unless they go at night
They’ll have to time that right
With foresight
They can also land when it’s cloudy
It is a bright idea but I don’t think it’s the right bright
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The latest mission in India’s ambitious space program has blasted off on a voyage towards the centre of the solar system, a week after the country’s successful unmanned moon landing.
“Launch successful, all normal,” an Indian Space Research Organisation official announced from mission control as the vessel made its way to the upper reaches of the Earth’s atmosphere.
Raychaudhury said the mission probe would study coronal mass ejections, a periodic phenomenon that sees huge discharges of plasma and magnetic energy from the sun’s atmosphere.
Aditya is travelling on the ISRO-designed, 320-tonne PSLV XL rocket that has been a mainstay of the Indian space program, powering earlier launches to the moon and Mars.
The South Asian nation has a comparatively low-budget space program, but one that has grown considerably in size and momentum since it first sent a probe to orbit the moon in 2008.
Experts say India can keep costs low by copying and adapting existing technology, and thanks to an abundance of highly skilled engineers who earn a fraction of their foreign counterparts’ wages.

Very interesting. Solar probes and low budgets usually don’t go together. That’s a lot of deceleration.
Wonderful. I hear the weather there is always sunny.
Do you want to kill Cillian Murphy? Because this is how you kill Cillian Murphy.
Man the first two acts of that movie are one of the best scifi stories I’ve ever seen and the third act of that movie is one of the worst slasher films I’ve ever seen
They don’t rest on their laurels, do they?
busy week huh
SpaceX and Daddy Elon isn’t happy.
He’s incapable of being happy. That’s why he keeps taking other people’s toys and breaking them.
Elon
Who carez
I’d be happy to have him board the rocket to the Sun.
Whats the goal?
I wonder if there’s beer on the sun.
Pretty insane to watch that India is taking over spacex and NASA.
The day that India masters recoverable, or self-landing boosters, its over for SpaceX.
