For some reason you seem to be ashamed of your own culture. What's wrong in calling the Mars mission by its Hindi/Sanskrit name? Do China, Japan and Russia not use names from their languages for their missions? And what's wrong with old people appearing in the webcasts. They are the people behind the mission. They know the most and can inspire the best. NASA always puts their scientists (which are mostly old) in their webcasts. Do you recommend NASA do the same to attract youngsters?
- mrkgnao 10y agoSee my replies downthread. It's not Hindi that I dislike, it's the choice of the name. I'm definitely on board about Hindi being a good idea for Indian spacecraft. Calling the Mars mission "Mars Vehicle" in any language is stupid.
