Do try and listen to the early episodes of #MissionISRO to get an idea of the audacity, the brilliance and the intense patriotism of our scientists in the 50s and 60s when we were a nation forced into poverty by colonial plunder. The philosophy of doing a lot with few resources and great ingenuity was established then. And a series of great scientists built on that philosophy to create history on this budget. @isro.

The 2023 Formula 1 calendar is insane:
• 23 races
• 20 countries
• 5 continents
• 240 hours of flights

This makes it a logistical nightmare, so here's a breakdown of how Formula 1 pulls it off.
