the fact that every desi user here collectively started screaming about Chandrayaan 3 within minutes of its touchdown and it felt like we were all the same person just crying, laughing, screaming is making me so damn emotional. I love how no matter what we desis will always get together to celebrate even if we all live thousands of kilometres away from one another.

I want yall to realise how momentous this is and how much we could do. Chandrayaan 3 had a budget of Rs 615 crore, that's roughly $74 million. For less than a two hundredth of elon musk's net worth, a country with a per capita income of $2000 sent a spacecraft to the Moon's south pole.

India has landed on the Moon!!! The landing is part of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO)'s historic Chandrayaan-3 mission.
"'We have achieved soft landing on the moon,'" said ISRO Chairman Shri Somanath. 'Yes, on the moon!'"
"[Indian Prime Minister Narenda Modi] then addressed the ISRO team, speaking in Hindi but adding in English, 'India is now on the moon!'
'The success belongs to all of humanity,' he said. 'And it will help moon missions by other countries in the future. I'm confident that all countries in the world ... can all aspire for the moon and beyond. ... The sky is not the limit!'"
The remote operated lander named Vikram touched down in the south pole region at 6:02pm IST on August 23, 2023. Vikram carried a small but mighty companion, the lunar rover Pragyan (Sanskrit, "wisdom").
Vikram is named after Vikram Sarabhai, PhD, physicist, astronomer, and a major figure in the development of India's space and nuclear programs. Sarabhai served as the first chairman of the ISRO, as well as the driving force behind the organization's creation. Recognizing the need for more coordinated space research in India, Sarabhai urged the Indian government to create INCOSPAR - the committee that eventually formed the ISRO in 1969.
