I have stated all along the thread china being an icbm nation should have a much more
Advanced space program. But still lacks even behind a non icbm nation like india.
Are you serious? Have u been in a cave for the past 30 years or something?
Between 2010 and 2012, China conducted 53 SUCCESSFUL orbital launches. India has managed a massive 8! How is China behind?
China has a space lab in orbit that is docked with and manned periodically. China operates and has international customers operating its own global positioning satelite network. We have a rover (not a partially successful orbiter) about to touch down on the moon. China will put an independent, permanently manned space station into orbit by 2020, something Russia and the US haven't doneindependently since Mir and Skylab.
Of those "P5" nations you've been mentioning, only three have manned space programmes. 1 of which is China. Only 3 operate an independent satelite positioning system. 1 of which is China. Of those 5 nations, China has had the 2nd highest orbital launch frequency behind Russia since 2011.
1 failed satelite launch doesn't change any of that. In the past 3 years, NASA has experienced more than 3 orbital launch failiures. Yet I haven't read 1 post from a netizen claiming China is now ahead of the States somehow.
I'd list the number of faliures ISRO has had, but... We aren't all trolls here. India doesn't even compare favorably to Japan, let alone China in space infrastructure or space program development.
I don't know why people on this forum feel the need to troll every time something goes wrong in China. Don't try to start a wang measuring contest. You'll lose ... horribly. Put it back in your pants.
So in conclusion I'll ask 1 question. Whereyou out having a few drinks when you made those "India is far ahead of China claims?" Its incredibly unbelievable how anyone with access to the internet could make such claims.
