It saddened me to read that sir. It has become fashionable in India to ridicule the United States. (My family and friends in India do that also)

This is another classic example of putting others down to make oneself feel better.

What happened to the adage, "Yaadhum Oorey, Yaavarum Kelir" (Roughly translated to mean "Every place is good, all are our friends")?

Space exploration is not a rat race any more sir, it is more a collaborative effort where all the space agencies - NASA,ESA,JAXA,ISRO, RSA, etc. - work together.

Many folks have climbed the Everest, but we remember only the first two men - Sir E.Hillary and T. Norgay.

Similarly, many nations will go to the moon, but it was the United States who first put man on the moon fifty years ago, and that too within 100 years of the first flight. (Again US was the country that introduced the first mechanically powered airplane to the world)

I am extremely sorry that my mentioning of Kripananda warrior's anecdote had the possibility of hurting effect on people staying there.
2. The incident narrated in my above FB had taken place in Delhi in 1976 When relationship between countries were not so smooth.
3. I agree now the space exploration is no more a rat race between nations and largely it is collaborative effort including recent China's CHANGay mission.
Regards.
GOD BLESS.
