That has to be the most horrible interview I have ever seen from a person of such prominence! Granted that you cannot judge a personal by oratory skills alone but this guy is really clueless.

later all GSLVs will use the cryo engine that develops 90 kN ton of thrust, against 75 kN and they will carry 15 ton of propellant against 12.8 ton now possibly giving a longer burn time Some interesting tidbits!

Thanks! What does the 7.5 in CE 7.5 signify? Guess this is where I'm confused/malinformed. On the whole then, which of the 2 engines is the more powerful? Not to imply any kind of direct competition here. 7.5 means 7.5 tonnes of thrust. 7.5 tonnes of thrust = 75 kN of thrust CE20 generates 20 tonne...

The current CE7.5 is a staged combustion cycle engine. The CE20 that is to be part of the GSLV MK3 is supposed to be a gas-generator cycle engine.

Wouldn't it be good from the point of Lok Sabha elections that BJP allows an AAP government in Delhi with outside support from Congis?

Does ISRO have the financial sanction for the second Vehicle Assembly Building at SHAR? I think that is a more pressing need than the third launch pad or a new launch site altogether.

Yes the IOR ones are good for future options. For now if we need to separate civilian and military facilities for launches, Gujarat can be a good interim option. Proximity to ISRO centers there means it would be easier to duplicate a SHAR over there, to take the load off it as the frequency increas...
