{"product_id":"space-obs","title":"Space","description":"\u003cp\u003eAs a young, modern nationstate – an ‘underdog’ in the developing world – India has led\u003cbr\u003e\nthe space research race with tremendous frugality and nimble innovation. In doing so, it\u003cbr\u003e\nhas made a stellar claim for itself in what had hitherto remained a big boys’ club.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis is the fascinating story of India and Indians in space. Parallelly, this is also the\u003cbr\u003e\nstory of how a developing nation, grappling with problems of the twentieth century such\u003cbr\u003e\nas poverty and hunger, slowly rose to become a world leader in space research. With\u003cbr\u003e\nChandrayaan-3, what India achieved in its mission to the moon cost it half of what it cost\u003cbr\u003e\nChristopher Nolan to make Oppenheimer.\u003cbr\u003e\nAs India announces its most ambitious leap yet towards space exploration with\u003cbr\u003e\nGaganyaan, all eyes are on it. Dinesh C. Sharma writes of this nothing-short-of-\u003cbr\u003e\nshocking journey spread over six decades of India in space research. Narrative science\u003cbr\u003e\nand human history at its very best, Space is a compelling account of the Indian space\u003cbr\u003e\nprogramme and the unsung biographies of Indian astronauts, their starbound journeys,\u003cbr\u003e\nfailures and triumphs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxfordbookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45242831798451,"sku":"9789361315459","price":480.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/4164\/4723\/files\/815OfZux2GL.jpg?v=1769513712","url":"https:\/\/oxfordbookstore.com\/products\/space-obs","provider":"Oxfordbookstore ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
