1. This image became pretty famous as a metaphor as to how the high-tech Indian space program coexists with general impoverishment. The reality was quite different. Contrary to the general belief that India’s didn’t have trucks in 1980s, this is a classic example of the supposedly unique Indian concept of Jugaad. The day when the photo was taken they were taking the satellite out for an antenna-range test. With a basic understanding of physics, it is well-known that testing an antenna by placing it, in the bed of a truck isn’t the best since the truck is metallic. The simplest work-around was to use a wooden bullock cart.
2. ISRO’s last 40 years expenditure is about half of NASA’s single year budget.
3. ISRO was established in 1969, 8 years after Pakistan established Space and Upper Atmosphere Research Commission (SUPARCO) in 1961. ISRO has to this date launched 65 satellites, but SUPARCO has only been able to launch two satellites (both from foreign soil and with foreign assistance).
4. ISRO’s budget is only 0.34 per cent of the central government expenditure at present and 0.08 per cent of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). There is so little to offer, but in turn ISRO has got more in return to offer back to the nation.
5. ISRO’s Chandrayaan-1 cost 386 crore rupees (approx) which is almost 9 times less than what NASA spends on a similar exploration.
6. Chandrayaan-1 was India’s first unmanned lunar probe. India researched and developed its own technology in order to explore the moon. The vehicle was successfully inserted into lunar orbit on 8 November 2008. Thus, India joined an elite group of nations involved in lunar exploration which included US, erstwhile USSR, China, Japan.
7. From the data collected from Chandrayaan-1 mission, ISRO scientists discovered a giant underground chamber on the moon, which could be used as a lunar base by astronauts for inter-planetary missions.
8. Chandrayaan-1 carried scientific payloads from NASA, ESA and the Bulgarian Space Agency.
9. ISRO is one of the six space agencies in the world with the capability to build and launch satellites from its own soil.
10. Apart from launching India’s 65 satellites, ISRO has also launched 29 foreign satellites till date.
