Well since US, Russia and the EU are not going to be spending billions on space tech with their economies in shambles, I'd still think it's upto India and China to innovate.

India might not have the tech required now, just as India did not have the tech required to make nuclear warheads once. Any country that has sufficient monetary and educational resources can most definitely innovate.

Also, you seem to be contradicting yourself: You say India has the brains but not the tech to go to the moon???

I guess going to Mars will take longer than the current crisis.
