Pakistan piggybacks on China to send astronauts to space, signalling Suparco's fall

As Pakistan relies on China to send its astronauts to space, here's a look at how, in search of gold, Pakistan forgot to nourish a diamond they had - Suparco
The article from Firstpost discusses Pakistan's space ambitions, highlighting its reliance on China to send astronauts into space, which underscores the decline of its own space agency, SUPARCO. Pakistan has signed an agreement with China to train Pakistani astronauts, aiming to send them to space by 2022, although this timeline has been delayed. This move comes as SUPARCO, once a pioneer in the Muslim world for launching a satellite, has seen its capabilities diminish due to political instability, lack of funding, and bureaucratic inefficiencies. The collaboration with China is seen as a strategic move to bolster Pakistan's space program amidst its own technological and financial constraints, reflecting a broader trend of Pakistan's increasing dependence on China for technological advancements. Meanwhile, India's space agency, ISRO, has made significant strides, further highlighting the disparity in space achievements between the two neighboring countries.
