Sending missions to mars, moon and name-it-whatever-you-want is not going to feed our millions.
Frankly, we should not! We should rather invest in research and development which helps our self sustenance for the next 100 years like renewable energy, food production and water management, environment control and education.
Not sending useless science missions to mars and asteriods.
Look at our bloody oil state. We are planning to levy cess and what not to salvage our oil companies.
Has the government forces atleast as a pilot plan a plan which says 50% of power for household should come from renewable sources (solar panels, etc) and give tax benefits for people who do that...
come on guys talk sense.. our PSLV and GSLV acheivements make sense as they have a huge commercial value, but what commercial value does our chandraayan mission have... ?
Investing more and more in these unwanted science missions is analogous to milking the best cow you have in a herd 3 times a day while starving the rest!
