ISKCON TVOP Planetarium Project Still Stalled

[PADA: Srila Prabhupada wanted Swami Prem to help with the planetarium configuration design, and he was sort of squeezed out of ISKCON. As a back up, Pradyumna das was supposed to help ISKCON understand some of the astronomy and astrological texts. He too was booted out. 

Other important people with skills in Vedic astronomy and astrology were also booted out. Meanwhile no working planetarium model seems to have been made -- since 1978? What is the hold up here? Sadaputa was not exactly booted out, but he was living isolated and separate from ISKCON. Some reports are that he was "depressed by the developments under the new gurus." 

OK maybe the hold up is -- because you GBC guys are spending maybe hundreds of millions on other foolish things, like lawsuits and jet set lives for the leaders, there has been a lack of funds to get the TVOP in order? Why is it taking almost forever to get this project on the road? And they are just hiring some technical people -- now? ys pd]
