Finally, there was a Indain scientist who offered to help. NASA people were desperate by that time and agreed to do anything."Tilt the rocket 90 degrees to the right" said the Indian scientist.
The engineers were puzzled but did it anyway. "Bring it back to vertical position" the Indian said. The engineers did. "Now start the engines" he said. And surprise, the rocket took off and flew into outer space! Everybody congratulated him and asked him how he knew what to do.
He replied - "It is very simple. This is what we always do with our Scooter in India".
