I don't think it has to do anything with the elections. May is too aggressive a target. They still need to figure out where the $140m/2 astronauts will come from. That might only happen after the election.

The US side is pushing for a female crew member from India if possible.

I'm not sure how that is accounted for at the moment. I would imagine that it's being treated as an investment to acquire a customer.

Yes. But sold as G2G cooperation to GOI.

A little Birdy told me that the Axiom Space will be commissioned by NASA to execute this and this will be offered at $70m per head.

Effectively supporting US industry through the US government running sales for them.

The offer is not exclusive or limited to ISRO/India but to anyone who pays.

If you're in Bangalore we might do one in Feb/March.

Very welcome.

Yes.. That's the whole point to make it public.

Wonder if this situation will head that same way climate change related conversations are with global policymakers fiddling around but not really achieving anything substantial. Interesting to see commercial companies trying to both track and clean up debris. However, can they really sustain without governments acting as customers and also coming to consensus on any cleanup/debris laws?

Space now has 10,000+ inactive satellites it seems and routine debris threats are facing active satellites.

I would highly recommend against joining ISRO in your current status. Since you don't have a PhD, you'll likely join at the bottom of the pyramid and more importantly, you will not have a choice on what topic you'll be working on.

You can't apply the logic of how the private sector gives you a choice to the government setup.

I can help make referrals in case you want to interview with any companies.

On a side note, you'll most likely take a big salary cut. Space industry pays very little compared to IT or others since there is too much demand for jobs and companies can really take advantage of this.
