PAP to send first sinkie to space on National Day in 2015

[3_M]

So what the astronaut going to do up there? perform teh tarik or flipping prata under zero gravity?

What a bloody waste of money ...we are learning from the Indians ...have hundreds of millions are living in poverty, yet that country has nuclear weapons, satellites in space.

During the early days of space travel they sent up a dog first followed by a chimp, then a man. So similarly, we should send up a pappie dog first to test water.

For SG's early days of space travel, they should send Swee Say before the dog and the chimp.
Errr, to make sure everything is in order and working effectively and efficiently before sending the dog and the chimp.


Note: Let's not waste a productive guard dog and smart chimp.

Make the space ship big enough to carry a few other 'chimps'...like MBT, WKS ..and set the coordinates to the nearest galaxies..

Cannot even settle the frequent MRT breakdown problems,want to follow other people to go up space ?
Same like cannot even walk properly but want to run ?
These farking retarded MIW must have their brains bashed with golf clubs to wake them up to harsh realities.
KNNCCB to the MIW!!!
KNNCCB to the 60% !!!

Better send all these MIW jokers to outer space and don't come back.

 

[Einfield]

ET now in danger of getting stab in space because of staring incident.

 

[Lordshiva]

you mean they are going to send an ah neh ....oops a monkey up to space?



lordshiva wants to be the first in queue ok? Ah nehs first ....

Hopes of sending a Singaporean into space may become reality sooner than one might expect - on National Day in 2015.

That is, if all goes according to plan following a memorandum of understanding (MOU) signed yesterday between home-grown high-tech start-up In.Genius, the Singapore Space and Technology Association (SSTA) and the Science Centre Board.

The MOU, signed at the Global Space Technology Conference, aims to develop a space-sciences education programme and send the first Singaporean into space.

At the event held at the Sheraton Towers Singapore hotel, Minister in the Prime Minister's Office S. Iswaran, who is also Second Minister for Home Affairs & Trade and Industry, announced that the Government has established the Office for Space Technology and Industry.

The office's mandate is to oversee the development of Singapore's space industry.

But in the immediate to short term, it will work with industry stakeholders to realise their satellite and innovation initiatives from Singapore.

The founder of In.Genius, local entrepreneur Marvyn Lim Seng, said that Singapore's first space flight will put the country on the "world map".

It will do so by "achieving safe, affordable space flight, attracting global tourists and high-net-worth individuals".

Mr Lim believes that the endeavour to send a Singapore citizen into space will help to create new high-tech jobs and space-sciences initiatives in Singapore schools.
He added that the project is not a "one-off" event, but part of a larger series of flight testing for a six-person space vehicle for commercial space tourism.

In.Genius revealed that it is in talks with government agencies to facilitate planning for the project, and is seeking cooperation with local universities on flight planning, aerodynamics analysis and testing.

My Paper understands that Nanyang Technological University's (NTU's) School of Mechanical Aerospace Engineering has agreed to collaborate and conduct wind-tunnel testing to assess aerodynamic performance for the project.

NTU assistant professor Daniel New said "this research collaboration will also serve as a learning platform for our students".

Mr Jonathan Hung, president of the SSTA, said: "Space is the next frontier. We need local entrepreneurs to push the envelope."

Which paper general will it be? One of the Ng Brothers?

Make space ice kachang

 

[wayanggedek]

Stupid idiots spending so much money on this when simple LSD could do the job. There are already so many spacemen in Singapore.

singing, dancing, dressing up, stating the obvious, making motherhood statements, generally being an unproductive irritant..............

Thats why must send ah neh....we are good at making teh tarik and flipping prata mah......

The difference is India receives foreign aid. Singapore receives foreign trash.

SR Nathan would be a good choice.

 

[zeddy]

SR Nathan would be a good choice.

Nathan will reject the offer because there'll be no free Briyani for him in Space..

They can build him SS Istana in space. Bet you he misses smelling the grass there.

So how much will this "space program" cost the tax payer. I understand a sizable portion is privately funded?

The Singaporean core will have to foot the bill. FTs will enjoy it.
