[@skailaje]

Well, you are being very kind to ISRO with the "really underwhelming" bit on the public outreach front. :) For such a senior official to say things like "you guys keep shifting social media platforms", "we don't have an Instagram account or a Twitter account" sounded like the lamest of excuses. I think he nailed the problem when he answered that the Outreach team consists of 2 or 3 ISRO scientists dedicating some of their (possibly personal) time in contributing to the public outreach....therein lies the problem....the Outreach Team ought to be a dedicated team whose raison d'etre must be to simplify the technical content of the past, ongoing and upcoming missions into bite-sized nuggets that can be digested easily by the masses of all ages.... ideally in atleast English and Hindi, to begin with. IMHO, we don't need scientists to create such content; what we really need dedicated social-media-savvy content creators employed by ISRO and scientists to only review the content for correctness before it is published. Any excuse implying "Oh, we are a scientific and engineering organization and therefore we don't feel the need to do an outreach to the country..." is rather condescending! At the end of the day, while we are all extremely proud of the ISRO scientists, the organization must not forget that it was started with and continues to be supported by the Indian taxpayer's money, especially in the pure science mission front. Therefore, public outreach must be a part of the objectives of ISRO....not necessarily a primary level objective, I agree, but atleast a close secondary one. ISRO definitely owes it to the nation!

NASA has excellent branding, marketing and mechandise-ecosystem. I wish ISRO could have a great PR team. Look at Indian brands like Zomato, Lenskart, Swiggy etc they have excellent marketing teams.

[@AdvaiticOneness1]

I know right! Its sad that we have high tech studio rooms with elaborate discussions and Ultra detailed high quality visual, audio and animation coverage for a Silly Cricket tournament like IPL and Nothing and even worse coverage for historic events like these that defines the capability and technological demonstration missions of an Entire Nation! Which are way more important than anything else at this point of time! ISRO is very old school and doesn't care about public outreach, which is important to inspire young minds and make them more interested towards science!

[@ujjawalsharma792]

Sorry to bulge in just a thought, maybe read it and reply with your views😅.. Why is isro avoiding marketing on scale, 2 reasons I could think of.. 1) NASA is a large part of us ecosystem where in even after ossification till this day every common citizen and members of Congress criticise NASA for their spendings which are aggravated on their failures and my heart pains to say that some mistakes could make a history out of isro's many ambitious missions. So it is a smart move like Chinese to focus on your work, be specialised in it and let the world know only if confronted which challenged national security (This point because more marketing will make isro more visible and the subject of discussion often and not all discussion are of your point of view **POSITIVE** for isro..humans😢) 2) NASA is pioneer in space research and has a strong military arm too.nasa has been successful in getting funds in the name of research but for isro I guess main discussion with goi is much on national security for the country so objective move should be of abstraction which isro does great, releasing only required minimum info

[@koustubh]

What I deduced from this interview is that ISRO doesn't have the necessary resources to do something like that, and the PR we are getting is wholly voluntary. I don't see it changing till the budget gets increased somehow. The space culture we want in india will be given to us by private firms. Soon enough don't worry.

They are all they need for some good outreach (even though that is not the primary objective of ISRO) provided they somewhat understand the social media landscape. It's not their job, I get it. And I'm not asking them (as in the actual core org) to specifically do it. And so whatever their "PR" organization is, or whoever it's under, should either be replaced with someone who actually goes around doing some work, or remove the post entirely and let whatever govt organization handle it. As far as the papers or research material and data is considered. That could be (and is) managed by scientist anyways. Poor allocation of resources is how I'd put it. Further, this gives them a good excuse to selectively talk about failures and or missions in general. Which kinda is against the whole transperency thing.

I was going to say that it'd have resulted in short and non-descriptive responses from his end but after watching more of it, it does feel like that they are way _too_ specific.

Loved the format. Great interview! Thank you for the questions, they were specific and covered a good range of projects. Also loved the patience and williness of Dr Somnath to answer those in as much details as he did. Really appreciate it! 🙏

First off,Congratulations to all my Fellow Gareeb Scientists.We could learn from errors and get better just like ISRO does all the time.We shall relentlessly push for better PR from ISRO until it gets addressed.But we shall make a strong case with ISRO next time. S.Somanth has been very kind and patient in taking questions beyond CY3.I am sure it speaks volumes about his sincere intentions in encouraging the curiosity built around ISRO among the youth of this country. He might have come across a bit sharp but I am sure it's just a knee jerk reaction. GS has uncovered a wide spectrum of things for us with this interview.Cant appreciate him enough. I could see brighter things on the horizon for us as a community. Just keep feeding your curiosity as always and best things will follow.

[@prateeksaurabh4142]

Very interesting aspect he mentioned is about secrecy on few matters. As responsible citizens when we push for better PR we also need to make sure we ain't creating security challenges for ISRO where they think it could be

Your achievement is inspiration for us Bhai❤🎉🎉🎉congratulations

[@AdvaiticOneness1]

It is disheartening that we invest in high-tech studio rooms equipped with intricate discussions and exceptionally detailed visuals, audio, and animation for a seemingly trivial Cricket tournament like the IPL. Meanwhile, there is a glaring lack of coverage and even worse attention given to historically significant events that showcase a nation's capabilities and technological advancements. These events hold far greater importance than anything else in the current moment. It's evident that ISRO, despite its pioneering endeavors, seems to prioritize traditional methods and overlooks the crucial aspect of public outreach. Inspiring young minds and fostering their interest in science should be a priority to nurture a scientifically inclined generation. ISRO should learn from NASA and SPACEX on how to handle Media Platforms!

[@rajeshprasad919]

Good interview 🎉. One thing you had put before the ISRO, that PR. Not as much as quality for our new generation which creates an intrest or a dream to be a part of ISRO. Our school children are to an astronaut in NASA not a vyomonaut in ISRO. Dear Somnath Sir, this is not your duty or job. Basically you are scientist you have no time to do this. But being a Director of ISRO, you should assigned someone for this. People must be aware about the achievements through your official social media handle. We have 1.4bln minds but only a few in numbers in space science, we are lagging behind becoz of poor PR and authority/ies. Please change the mindset.

[@hetarthkamdar8707]

I would suggest when you are interviewing someone such as ISRO Chief, please have your camera on, it makes better engagement for the person being interviewed and the audience as well. The conversation was too dragged out on some questions even after Sir gave his answer. His time is valuable, please keep conversations efficient.

[@prathmeshsonawane2769]

I have great respect for him & other ISRO scientist but the response about PR question broke my heart 😢 old generation people needs to understand the importance of PR for today's social media generation.... Again no hate towards him just my opinion.

[@sugunsegu7608]

Very Bad handling of an interview by an interviewer... Improve the way of talking Gareeb...

Dude how hard is to manage 4 accounts on social media sites? Don't even have to pay that much attention. You can literally automate the posts and maybe hire a few people or use volunteers for replying to questions.

[@priyadarshi8548]

13:48 Somnath sir said enough of this BS

[@Lord_Alhaitham]

Really dissapointed in him, he doesn't have a single ounce of enthusiasment about the interview dare I say he sound condescending like PR doesn't matter at all while NASA makes so much just by selling merch. Hopefully they'll have a good PR team at some point

[@darshanchavan5617]

Incredible interview! Thanks to both for your efforts and enlightenment.

Agree Also I can understand the pr issue Isro working is not as same as nasa

[@star_titan]

Finally GS meets ISRO chairman what was your first reaction when you talked to such an amazing person did you freaked out at starting???

[@GareebScientist]

no not really, i have watched so many interviews of hi, few reactions were along expected lines

[@sd-wm1sq]

I think we should have GS interview Chief Somnath once a quarter or 4 months.

[@magnet0363]

Dude, you should rephrase your question in such a way as to not pin point the failures of last mission instead you can mention about the learning from last mission and making improvements is the right way to question.

[@pramodj7580]

+1 “Learnings” would be the most suitable word instead of failures

[@brainylemon6542]

Too argumentative questions in between 🙏🏼 love your videos btw but should be more patient infornt of such giant figures.

[@sayansaha4568]

1st of all I am very much enjoy the this meeting.. Its a very much informative video.. Thank u gareeb scientist for making the video... Lots of questions clarify and so much expected answers.. Hope isro successfully completed there target about Cy3✔️..and it's very much clearer about that they're not think about big deal about the mission.. There 1st this as usual a Save landing that's more important.. Hope isro are doing well... Once again thakur you @gareebScientist

[@sanjeevbhattacharjee1936]

Why are you pestering the isro chief on unwarranted press update ..why should isro scientists be under public and social media pressure ..its quite unnecessary and irritating that you don’t understand the functioning of isro…quite uncouth and unnecessary

[@DhruvMalikk]

I thought it would be a 5-10 minute interview but it's a 40 + minutes, great

Happy to do outreach for ISRO for free man. Won't even give one gaali, promise!

7:10 That "interesting" was a bit funny. Like he was applying for a job and you are evaluating xD But damn, you got the grand daddy on board, good job! Nice questions as well, although the context around much of which is foreign to me

[@ItsAryaRaval]

I love how this is such a straight forward interview! Mr Soamnathan is direct and brutally honest, so was our beloved Gareeb Scientist! Love it!

[@bhaveshlodhirajput734]

Absolutely loved the interview. I couldn't make sense of the technical parts but enjoyed the openness of our guest. As much sir is focusing on engg instead of PR, you too have focused on tech and not on courtesies. Even sir could feel your passion and gleefully accepted your observations. Thanks for sharing this. ❤

[@writershree]

फार छान आणी poignant प्रश्न विचारले तू त्यांना|Some of the lingering chasms were answered today,so thank you ❤ My two bits - त्यांना obviously तू आता आवडतोस, so try to avoid abrasive questions going forward. You see, in space exploration there is an element of secrecy that is required,and he was doing his job in trying not to divulge state secrets for stuff in the works,which is understandable and I'm sure you would agree as well. Super proud of you to pull this interview off, and have the balls to ask those pointed questions that you did. Looking forward to getting more updates from ISRO about our ambitious space endeavours through your channel. My best wishes always! Jai Hind 🇮🇳🙏🏼

[@tanmaychandak8314]

I would just ask you to show more respect while interviewing, respond well to the answers and not just simply acknowledge with an OK and move on to the next question. I know you have the curiosity to know things so let it display through words and learn like a child does. It also encourages the interviewee to respond in a more exciting way.. also would like to ask that your tone should not be advisory and even argumentative. It was outrageous to argue with ISRO chairman on PR and outreach. I really need to say that the man deserved more respectable interviewer. Also are you interviewing as a student of science or a critic? Also, Chandrayaan 2 outreach was far better than mangalyaan, shows your views were based on your perspectives and not fact based. It makes me so furious to have you just go on arguing to the Chairman of ISRO like a child just trying to prove your point and nothing else and completely trying to impose your Social media narrative on him. this was the poorest interview I ever watched.
