Boedog Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Higher education, Innovation minister they give themselves nice titles. Well what can you say WOW. Please feel free to ad # Prayut is looking for another Sandbox. # Prayut thinks he has done such an amazing job running the Country into the ground looking for somewhere to hide. # lm sure the Thai people will be excited by the news that billions will be wasted on another ridiculous scheme(scam). # Prayut blames Covid for stopping the brown envelopes but he has found them again in his Sandbox. # Why doesn't Prayut just ask the Chinese since he is there bitch. Just imagine if the Government actually came up with a plan to help the Thai people in any way. Education, Health care, pensions, pollution, daily road carnage, zero care or responsibility for there environment, police and Government corruption (not going to investigate themselves) the list goes on. Can someone please explain to me how this will benefit anyone apart from the inner circle who came up with this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure the investor and everybody - including me - on here will be dead way before any Thai made space rocket puts a man into space, and I'm just 57 ! Lots of Thai men are in space already.

desert dueller Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 (edited) I think Thailand needs to go through that "Magnificent Men In Their Flying Machines" stage first before becoming Mars Central (otherwise referred to as The Hub) Edited July 15, 2021 by desert dueller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desert dueller Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Easier and cheaper option for Thailand, and more suited to their prevailing skills set : go the opposite direction, drill a hole. Lotsa space down there once you get closer to the core. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need really smart people and due to the totally inadequate education system here nowhere near enough smart problem solving out of the box thinkers are being produced. The biggest problem is not the kids but the teachers and administrators. Who teaches them so they can teach the future generations.? The government can pass all the laws they like but if the population does not have the skills and education levels required nothing is going to happen. Solleee, noh sa-peek inglit.

They know they will never make it to space........but they sure as hell can make some parts for others to make it there. Cheap labor.......and plenty of it. At last they might have something other than rice to export. Ok, they can make the wheels in Samut Prakan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simon43 Posted July 16, 2021 Share Posted July 16, 2021 Well, I certainly don't think this announcement was well-timed, considering the 'mess' that the country is in. However, speaking with my 'rocket scientist' hat on, it's certainly possible for Thailand to get involved in the space business, without building rockets and (alas for those government committees), without a large expenditure. Many countries have a vibrant space manufacturing and test industry sector, and never see a rocket in their lives... In my space career, I worked as a contract hardware designer, which means that I was 'shuffled' from project to project, as the need arose for my wonderful skills(!). Some of the more mundane but still very important projects included: - Building test equipment to test space flight power supplies - Building test equipment to test rocket motor control systems - Testing military GPS spaceflight GPS receivers - Tuning low noise amplifiers for satellite use - Operating environmental test facilities for space flight hardware etc etc Thailand could encourage small businesses to enter the space industry sector, but I don't think that the Thai government is actually looking at 'real work' - they are looking for kudos and money.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
