Indians in Gulf bask in glory of Chandrayaan-3's Moon landing
Dubai, Aug 23 (PTI) As Chandrayaan-3 successfully soft-landed on the Moon on Wednesday to propel India into an elite group of nations, Indians living in the Gulf leapt with joy and expressed a collective sense of pride.
India made history on Wednesday as its Moon mission Chandrayaan-3 became the first to land in the uncharted south pole of the Earth's only natural satellite.
Comprising the lander (Vikram) and the rover (Pragyan), India's Moon mission Chandrayaan-3 touched down on the lunar south pole at 6.04 pm. With this touchdown, India has become the fourth country to master the technology of soft-landing on the lunar surface after the US, China and the erstwhile Soviet Union
