India has become the 1st country to successfully land a spacecraft on the moon's south pole and 4th country to soft-land a spacecraft on the Moon

Chandrayaan-3 was aiming to become the first spacecraft to touch down in a region of the lunar surface thought to contain deep craters with water ice

India's third lunar mission Chandrayaan-3 successfully landed on the Moon on Wednesday, August 23 at 6.03 PM IST

All eyes are on Chandryaan-s's Vikram Lander which also contains the Pragyan rover that will study the surface of the moon

Moon’s South Pole, also known as the lunar south pole is of special interest to scientists because of the occurrence of water ice in permanently shadowed areas around it. The lunar south pole has craters on its surface that are unique in their own way, as sunlight is not able to reach their interiors.

This is why these craters are cold traps that contain a fossil record of hydrogen, water ice, and other volatiles dating from the early Solar System. Considering these cold temperatures, the matter trapped in the southern lunar region wouldn’t have witnessed much change over the years and could thereby hold clues to early life.

These factors make the southern lunar pole fascinating for scientific investigations.

If the moon landing was true why haven’t humans been able to go back up there for over 50 years
Despite increase in technology of spacecraft and space suits

Have you stopped to think that God is still revealing themself to us? Perhaps instead of visions and prophesy, this time through science and engineering. Sometimes I wonder if God is leading us to meeting Him someday via spaceships...

Instead of emulating western countries, we Africans should base our development model on China,India and other southeast Asian countries .
In 2009 both Nigeria and India are at the same level,in last 15 years India progressed spectacularly on all fronts while Nigeria regressed spectacularly on all fronts .

What could be the principal reason for the spectacularly regression of Nigeria?

No we were never equal, few examples Indians were making cars in 1945, Nuclear test in 1974,Fisrt Super computer in 1991 so You can not compare an Apple to a Lemon.

Giving example of India and China doesn't make any sense cause this continent do not fit in that criteria to be compared with them. In reality, For some things / subjects, Even Europe can not be compared with India and China.
As world`s ancient civilizations both India and China were more rich, More Powerful, More Innovative then entire Europe.
India and China both had 82% of entire worlds GDP.
For Indians and Chinese and the Education, Entrepreneurship, Industrial mindset is with them for 5000 years when Europe was living in caves.

Chinese were doing research on Explosive chemicals during Ming Times.
India was the birthplace of Trigonometry, Complex mathematics (Vedic).
Number system that we use in today's world was developed by Indians and same knowledge passed to Spain(ie. Europe) by Arab traders.


We are not fortunate and focused like them, Since when we have started studying mathematics and science in this continent?? from 70s. so where is the comparison?
If we can make a good schooling available to public and good hospitals in next 30 years then we are successful. Lets focus on ourselves but yes as long as Religion exist, there is almost no hope for us.

This continent has very long journey to go my friend.
