    Space: The Final Frontier

    India have done it: India's Mars probe leaves orbit of Earth (Wired UK)

    Now for the Welsh: Home - The Welsh Space Campaign
    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

        Indeed, since the country as a whole suffers such extreme poverty that we need to help support them, clearly they wouldn't blow a penny of that on discretionary spending like a space programme, nuclear weapons programme or anything that doesn't directly relieve the conditions in their society.

          How much did the YUK contribute towards the Indian space program in the form of overseas aid? Was it all of it?

              Was expecting them to recall that space ship, but promise to have all the bugs fixed in the next version

                It makes about as much sense as sending aid to the US because of poverty in some Southern States but, to be fair to the Indians, seem to recall ( though can't be arsed to look for it) that they said they didn't need our aid. Don't blame them, blame our stupid governments and twats like Cameron who love to chuck away our money.

                PS Waiting for the Chinese to send one. It will probably be a counterfeit copy of NASA's and marked NASA but explode before it leaves orbit.

                    Space exploration isn't a waste of money.
