1984 Space Moment || Indira Gandhi and Sq Leader Rakesh Sharma in Conversation || Chandrayan 3
India from Space: “Saare Jahan Se Achha” – A Journey from Rakesh Sharma to Chandrayaan 3
On April 2, 1984, a historic conversation between Indira Gandhi and Squadron Leader Rakesh Sharma echoed the sentiments of every Indian: “Upar se Bharat kaise dikhta hai? Saare Jahan se Achha.” For many, this was the defining space moment of their generation. Fast forward to today, and India’s space ambitions have soared even higher with Chandrayaan 3.
Science, much like sport, is a continuum. It’s a relay where the baton of knowledge, ambition, and achievement is passed from one generation to the next. As we stand on the cusp of another monumental achievement with Chandrayaan 3’s moon landing, it’s essential to remember and honor the trailblazers. The architects of India’s space program, over the decades, have laid the foundation for such groundbreaking moments.
From the pioneering efforts of Dr. Vikram Sarabhai to the bravery of Rakesh Sharma, and now to the cutting-edge technology behind Chandrayaan 3, India’s journey in space exploration has been nothing short of stellar. It’s a testament to the dedication, vision, and relentless pursuit of excellence by countless men and women at ISRO and beyond.
So, as we gear up to celebrate this significant milestone, let’s salute the indomitable spirit of all those remarkable individuals who have made India’s space dreams a reality. Their legacy shines bright, much like the stars they’ve reached for. 🌟🇮🇳 #MoonLanding
