NASA to be outsourced to India?

I'd feel a lot safer in US spacecraft than an Indian one...£45 million is not a lot these days as as already alluded to...even less if the money is given/donated in the first place.

I dunno. At least I don't think the Indians have blown up any of their astronauts yet.

The exhaust gasses would come in handy if there were a rocket malfunction

I think we just figured out their propulsion system.

Curry -> astronaut -> collection syphon in the space suit -> ignition chamber
