Xircal Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Quite a few flights in that airspace at any one time: http://www.flightradar24.com/11.22,94.38/6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny S Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Better luck next time to let Space debris fall on Koh Tao and sink the dump in the ocean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sviss Geez Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Is it April 1st already? Not sure when the launch is ... and so incredibly sure excatly where (in terms of margin for error) where the stuff will fall. Good one lads, happy you have retained your sense of humor. How would the launch date, within just a few days either way, have any bearing on where the debris is calculated to fall and why is it such a joke to you?

Sviss Geez Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 why warning and scaring people of Phuket about incoming space debris? What can they do : buy an umbrella? Well it's not the navy doing the warning and scaring, it's the reporter of the newspaper. The RTN content of the warning states the area in the Andaman Sea that could be dangerous for shipping (and doesn't even mention Phuket), that's the point of the warning.

Sviss Geez Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 MCD Polluted Ganges.jpg Typical of India. These people have polluted their own country, just about "killed" the Ganges River and now they start dropping their Krap on Thailand. They are not dropping anything on Thailand, some debris from the launch vehicle may land in the Andaman Sea, 460 km away fromThailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outboard Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Sorry, I'm German and my language skills are not on the point. Why there is danger after lunch? Fatfather because it is an Indian lunch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawker9000 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Well goodness gracious me! I wonder how the expense of this rocket currys favour with the 29.8% of India's 1.21 billion people who live below the poverty line. Never mind, they can afford it. The UK taxpayers handed £280million to the country in 2012. I thought the "space debris" wasn't supposed to land until late March/early April. It's obviously already landed...

flyingdoc Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I wish you were correct, Samsingsong! In fact the figure was £4 billion, only to be told that the Indians were insulted by the offer. Britain then went to great lengths to try to explain to an outraged public, why India did in fact need such a large amount. Most, including me, were left totally unconvinced !

rijb Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 The Indians are going to be in big trouble if that stuff hits any jet skis. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reigntax Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Why not just mark out a 10% space and make landing illegal everywhere else. Even better, add it to the prohibition signs. Makes as much sense as anything else going on in Phuket! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xircal Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 OK, you can all put your umbrellas away: the launch has been deferred due to some anomaly or other with the telemetry transmitters: http://www.thehindubusinessline.com/news/science/irnss1d-satellite-launch-deferred-due-to-anomaly/article6959082.ece Some more space junk is expected to re-enter the atmosphere at the beginning of April though: http://www.satview.org/decay.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it does seem to be an unjust and crazy world. About the £280 Mil or £4 Billion, still a drop in the ocean for what our Empire took from them and from all the Empire's other colonies for all those years........ Now the Empire is run by the Big conglomatates who "Outsource", use slave labour in their sweat shop factories making clothes, electronics and all manner of consumer goods that. for some reason, we cannot live without!. Same same, only different - they Never give anything back - Ever! Edited March 26, 2015 by laislica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
