(Remote sensing is remotely gathered data, mostly from a satellite in space, for various applications, including land mapping, meteorology, and urban planning.) Letâs take a look at the glorious achievements of Pakistanâs space agency Space and Upper Atmosphere Research Commission (SUPARCO).While SUPARCO was founded 8 years before ISRO in 1961, it took just took 50 years to launch its first communication satellite into the orbit by using Chinese-made launch vehicle.
We should be now comparing ourselves with Bangladesh who was once part of our country (not very long ago). Namira Salim is Pakistan's first astronaut. If yes then what is Pakistan waiting for, shouldn't it be unleashing the 'real thing' by using hired trucks so to speak!
If the issue of lack of funds, or proposals or alternate means to raise funds, has never even surfaced, then I needn't point fingers to rest the blame; it is entirely evident. But Pakistan has shown time and again that it is too resilient and too big to fail!http://www.riazhaq.com/2011/03/resilient-pakistan-defies-doomsayers.htmlThis is madness. People all over the world know what Pakistan is expert for. Upon this The General Ordered that first build the bridge and then afterwards you can make feasibility report and feasibility studies. I think this is the main reason of our plight that we don't have right person at right place, nowhere.Maybe, just maybe, we should make some more electricity first..I mean, just sayin'..:)Dr Salam was ahead of his time. Freedom is about variety and diversity. Aspiring Civil servant ,hell bent on bringing about a positive change in India .
We’ve sent a grand total of over 300 satellites, 100 of which are our own. You really think the Chinese would give you the top end of their tech? The high ranking general was heading the Bridge Project in Azad Kashmir. Yet another political motivated article on ET. Solve the problems on land first then dream about the skies above ! @Riaz Haq: We landed our Flag on the Moon in 2008 through Chandrayaan-1. So far you have not proven any such things.Your military armaments are Chinese outdated gadgets only. An astronaut from Pakistan, Namira Salim, congratulated India on its historic attempt to make a lunar landing. The SUPARCO website is evidence of the rudderless nature of Pakistan’s space program.
Guys and Dolls : Please do not Argue with Riaz Haq Esq. Really Pakistan has all the capability? Unless otherwise stated, all content is Pakistan lost a great patriotic visionary due to religious bias.
Pakistan has time and again provided some comic relief to India even in the toughest of times. hhahahahahahhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahhahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa @Tosser: It has multi-lateral and bilateral international agreements.The independent research in space sciences and aeronautical development was ensued and goaded by the senior physicists at the Department of Physics of the This led to the establishment of Pakistan's Space Program which was the first of its type in the Muslim world as well as the developing world. While some might argue that SUPARCO is on the decline due to lack of funds, the truth is that Pakistanâs space programme never really took off and continues to exist just on paper.Talking about satellites, Chaudhry while attempting to take a jibe at ISRO, misspelt the word âsatelliteâ in one his many tweets which are often laid with absurd claims. "The last civilian scientist to have headed the Pakistan Space and Upper Atmosphere Research Commission (Suparco) was Dr Abdul Majid, who planned the Paksat communication satellite system and satellite launch vehicle projects.On his retirement in April 2001, Majid handed over charge to Major General (retd) Raza Hussain, whose tenure lasted till August, 2010. Obviously ISRO. Pakistan’s space program has relied on international space powers like the … So you go into space and are still obsessed with counter attacking India? Whatâs more shocking is the fact that Pakistan of all the countries has a Science and Technology Minister.
