How India's Space Program Humiliates NASA's Budget
ISRO is India's bustling national space program that is not only one of the only countries capable of launching rockets to space, but also one of the only countries to have sent probes to the moon and even mars. Aside from having a wide range of rockets and programs, the most impressive aspect about ISRO is their cost-effectiveness. Unlike other government space organizations, ISRO is extremely efficient having one of the lowest costs per kilogram in the space industry. For instance, ISRO not only became the first organization to achieve Martian orbit on their first try, but they also did it at a record low cost of $74 million. Comparable missions completed by NASA often range in the hundreds of millions of dollars. This video explains the various rockets and programs of ISRO and the future of ISRO in the space industry.
