India will launch its first manned space mission in 2016 in a bid to match space pioneers such as Russia and the United States, a top official said Wednesday.

The government had already approved plans for a human space flight project by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), and last year gave the go-ahead for funding of around 2.8 billion dollars.

ISRO chairman K. Radhakrishnan said the agency would develop the space module for the programme within four years.

"We are planning a human space flight in 2016, with two astronauts who will spend seven days in the Earth's lower orbit," Radhakrishnan told reporters at ISRO headquarters in Bangalore.

The space agency will also establish a facility in Bangalore for training the

They changed their 2016 space station in orbit to 2030 recently. Like they changed their prediction of exceeding China and the US by 2020 back in 2012 when they were supposed to get to "superpower" status. They've also changed superpower status acquisition date from 2012 to 2020. In time it becomes more than clear enough to all bhakts that they didn't achieve superpower status by 2020 and already they are saying 2030 becoming second economy after China and exceeding USA. The bhakts are better at self fellatio than they are at anything else. Making claims is certainly easier than engineering.

2030 is the new 2020. :D

Seems like Indian defence acquisition is about to be screwed.

S400, AK203, Talwar class frigates will likely get much higher scrutiny or be cancelled.

Super sukhoi likely gone and even maintenance for existing fighters will come under pressure.

Predator drones cancelled due to make in india initiative and p75i submarines delayed due to bureaucracy

Gonna be a tough 20 years for Indian armed forces
