Moon Missions

Hundreds of additional crores will now be spent on moon missions by India.

ISRO today got a 27 per cent hike in budgetary allocation, a major chunk of which is will be spent on missions to moon, development of the semi-cryogenic engine and building a rocket for launching heavier satellites.

Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) was allocated Rs 4,459 crore, an increase of Rs 960 crore over the previous year’s sanction of Rs 3,499 crore, in the interim budget presented by Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee here.

India’s achivement in science and technology has been mind-boggling. Soon they would be landing a man on the moon. But they still can’t invent a device that could simplify the procedure of inserting a naada into a pajama.

Sadly, nobody really understands the common man’s needs.
