INDIA's GSLV-D2 Launch Successful

India's second developmental test flight of the Geo synchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV-D2), was successfully carried out on May 8, 2003 4:58pm IST, from Satish Dhawan Space Centre - SHAR, Sriharikota. This marks a major milestone in the Indian space programme. It really is a wonderful news that our scientists are striving to be the best in Space technology. Although the D2 also ran with Russian supplied Cryo(genic) motors, this successful flight would certainly have boosted the morale of the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO). I can see our space programme going commercial in the next 4-5 years. Imagine the amount of revenue our workhorse rockets will be bringing in. It is estimated that if India commercializes its space launching systems, the cost of putting a satellite would be a lot less than (atleast 40% cheaper. BIG money when you talk of millions of $$$) the cheapest alternative now (probably the Russian Space Programme, I dont know however). Rock On....scientists. Full credit goes to you.
