Ossy Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 2 hours ago, Misterwhisper said: Thailand, a typical Third World country that consistently sets itself all the wrong development priorities. True words, all of them, MW, but even to see the RIGHT development priorities would require the power to think and to evaluate one issue - or priority - over another. It is clear, even amongst the 'nice' people in my village, that this need to think - this ability to think - simply does not result, either from domestic upbringing or from schooling. The ability to differentiate between right or wrong, good or bad or to acknowledge a weight of responsibility simply doesn't exist, amongst a great proportion of Thais. But they'll crack the wee task of putting a satellite into orbit . . . not much thinking or reasoning needed for that, he jokes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

observer90210 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 (edited) Will the satelite be used to monitor the rash drivers on the Thai Roads ?!!?? Or will it be used to forcecast the heavy rains that get totally out of control and flood the major metros of Thailand ?!?? But maybe it could also be used to monitor the ranters on TVF ?!!!

Kaoboi Bebobp Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 400 million baht is $12 million US. NASA spends $52 million US a day. So, by my reckoning, Thailand will be able to afford the signs on the road to the proposed satellite factory and a brochure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

worgeordie Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Maybe they need to get Thaksin back ,he knew how to get satellites up there, by using people and companies that have already done it,or is Thailand mulling plans to develop rockets as well, lot cheaper to send it up on the next N.Korean launch. regards worgeordie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanuckThai Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 I'm at a loss....the Thai federalies can't digitize immigration, land/property ownership or car registration/ownership ...but hey, a satellite makes sense as a priority.

bobbymack Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 So they want the satellite to 'explore the earth'. They don't realise that the west explored this hundreds of years ago. Given that most Thais haven't a clue about the world outside Thailand it is no surprise that the buffoons in power believe the mission is sensible.

Basil B Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Not exactly rocket science. though a bunch of armatures could probably do better at a fraction of the cost... https://amsat-uk.org/2017/11/18/radfxsat-fox-1b-ao-91/ Darh-Dit-Darh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jools Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Yes, Thailand should definitely invest in this, since there are no poor people to take care of now that they've become a utopian socialist paradise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dateline 2068: Thailand's Siam III space capsule collides with a piece of space junk, pilot immediately opens the hatch and makes a run for it, abandoning other occupants of the spaceship. RTPF investigators say it was due to the behavior of the farang foreign object. They also said the pilot, who was not wearing a spacesuit, is no where to be found, and may have been apprehended by Vulcans or Klingons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
