Watching live the softlanding of Chandrayaan 3, India’s third lunar mission on the dark side of the moon – the south pole beamed live from ISRO, I couldn’t help weeping in quiet happiness. Its 5.30 in Tucson, the US. India creates history and becomes the first nation in the world to softland/touch down in the south pole of the moon, so far not accessed by NASA or other space agencies. India is also only the fourth nation in the world to have successful lunar missions. After our grand success in Maiden Mars Mission, Chandrayaan 3 comes as shot in the arm for ISRO scientists. Good to see Chandrayaan 2 still alive and giving a warm welcome to Chandrayaan 3! What a proud moment! Jai Hind! Jai Bharat! Congratulations India and hearty congratulations to entire ISRO team both at Sriharikota, the launching pad and also at Bangalore. Thank you the scientific community of India!
