Congrats To ISRO For Detecting Water In Moon

The talented space scientists of Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) have done a great service to the world – and have also made India so proud – by finding water in the Moon while conducting their now fabled Moon mission - Chandrayaan-1.

It is certainly one of the most significant scientific achievements in the recent human history. And it is a matter of great joy and pleasure for each and every Indian that our own ISRO has played such a crucial role in it.

ISRO is an organization which has been doing great works from the very beginning of its birth, thereby successfully carrying the legacy of the space science stalwarts like Vikram Sarabhai and Homi Bhabha.

Now the entire nation will eagerly wait for ISRO’s next Moon mission - Chandrayaan-2. And we all know that it will be a grand success, as well.

My heartfelt wishes and advanced congratulations to the ISRO scientists, the precious jewels of the great land named India.

Yes, ISRO needs to be congratulated. Human space exploration is a natural extension of our species need to expand in mind, body and soul. Our quest has led to exploring vast parts of our planet. Human activity has had its contribution to the peril of the planet as well, leading to meaningless death and destruction of the environment and everything in it. But, I believe, such scientific endeavors need to be encouraged, in the hope that mankind will evolve. Only when that happens will we have equity among humans. Some skeptics have rightly asked what relevance is there with finding water on the moon when a farmer in Bulandshahr looks at the blue sky and a failed monsoon. The two issues need to be separated an not linked, both being relevant issues to be addressed.
