The NASA on Saturday took to Twitter to commend ISRO's attempt to land its Chandrayaan-2 mission on the South Pole of the Moon.

PM Narendra Modi was on his way out from the ISRO centre after completing his address when he turned to congratulate K Sivan for all his efforts in the mission. Mr Sivan broke into tears as PM Modi gave him a hug and several pats on the back to ensure he does not get disheartened with the results.

During the interaction, one of the students asked him for the tips to become the President of India. Replying to his query, PM Modi laughed and said, 'why President and not Prime Minister?'

Applauding the tremendous efforts of the scientists involved in the project, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that the great thing associated with science is that it never fails, no matter what the result is. There is always learning.

Communication to the Chandrayaan 2's lander Vikram was lost. At 3.10 am, an ISRO scientist - not the chief - announced that a planned press conference had been called off.

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) on Wednesday revealed that its moon lander Vikram has completed final de-orbital operation successfully. It has been scheduled for landing on September 7.

The ISRO had organized an online quiz to increase the awareness about its space programme from August 10 to August 25. Only school children were allowed to participate in the quiz from class VIII to Class X.

The Indian Space Research Organisation on Wednesday revealed that the India's Chandrayaan 2 successfully performed a critical manoeuvre that lasted about 20 minutes as it moved more close to the Moon.

India's second moon mission achieved the "biggest milestone" as the scientists successfully placed it in the lunar orbit on August 20. The lunar-rover will now start a descent to the moon on September 7.

The makers of 'Mission Mangal' have released a brand new trailer of the upcoming movie which stars Akshay Kumar, Vidya Balan, Sonakshi Sinha, Taapsee Pannu, Sharman Joshi, and others in the lead roles.
