Once again PM leading from front at the time when our scientists need reassurance and faith he is there holding their hand, boosting their morale.
Science is all about experiments and struggles, there is nothing like failure in Science.
Well Done #ISRO
#Chandrayaan2Landing

Its important to know that #Chandrayaan2 had two missions
Lander (Vikram) & Rover (Pragyan)
Orbiter
While Isro is trying to get communication back with Vikram, orbiter remains in operation orbiting the moon successfully and will continue to study the moon from far.

Losing contact with the lander & the rover just 2.1 km above d surface is not a failure. Only 5% of the mission is lost .The orbiter can take several images of the moon and send it to @isro also take pics of the lander to find out its status .
This is a remarkable achievement

Another imp point to note is that India opted for softer landing on d south pole in its first attempt which is very complex
In April Israel attempted to land a spacecraft on its lunar surface only to fail in d final moments.
Mission is a source of immense pride for all Indians

This is the most defining picture, a poignant moment when PM consoles emotional #ISRO Chairman #Sivan reiterating why this man is so ahead than his counterparts.
Always inspiring and motivating, a leader in the true sense with inner strength and fortitude.
