USA has never helped India in the matter of Rockets and space research, everything came from the Soviet Union and Russia. Clinton even tried his best to put pressure on Russia not to supply India anymore rockets or engines. Americans never took any Indian citizens to the space; USSR did that in 1982. USA is against India joining the International Space Research Station, as Russia has suggested. Thus, why this sudden love???? Is it because the tender to buy 200 fighter aircrafts for the Indian Airforce is due very soon and USA wants to have this contract. Then if China or Pakistan would attack India USA would stop all supplies of spare parts as they did in 1965.

Americans never took any Indian citizens to the space. What about Kalpana Chawla and Sunita Williams they went them selfs to the space.

Emotion vemotion chodo yaar..Feel proud that the world is coming to us. ISRO will not carry their payload free of cost. Like it is mentioned in the article, different countries are vying for the chance & US only hopes that they will win that chance. So don't worry...it is better to make co-operation than remain in isolation. RULES OF THE WORLD buddy.
