When we avenged the racist cartoon by NewYork Times :
Sometime back in September 2014 , our Mangalyaan aka Mars Orbiter successfully entered orbit around the red planet. In doing so, India became the first country in the world to enter the Martian orbit in its maiden attempt. And with that the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) became the fourth international space agency.
India's space mission cost around Rs 450 crore, or nearly $74 million, and cost roughly a tenth of NASA's Mars mission Maven spacecraft that also reached the planet's orbit a few days ahead of Mangalyaan. However, despite the 'low-cost' of India's space mission, there was constant criticism that India should just worry about fighting poverty and not waste money in trying to get into space.
So they put out this cartoon mocking the India Space Mission (That’s not nice !)
But, Guess what ? Karma always strikes back !
Few weeks later an unmanned US rocket Antares exploded during launch and Hindustan Times didn’t miss the opportunity to take revenge on the cartoon made by The New York Times. (It’s Payback time baby !)
Don't Underestimate Indians.
Good Morning..😉
