PM Modi on the mission of Chandrayaan 2 - the spirit is not weak, strengthened

Bengaluru, 7 September, 2019
India's lunar mission suffered a setback in the early hours of Saturday when ISRO lost contact with the lander Vikram just two kilometers before the lunar surface. Right now ISRO is waiting for the figures.

Concerns have emerged on the faces of scientists due to the loss of contact with Chandrayaan just before the moon.
Just before Chandrayaan-2 landed on the moon, contact was lost and scientists got upset. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has encouraged the scientists and he also addressed the country from the control center of ISRO.

The Prime Minister said that we will definitely succeed. Success will also be with us in the next attempt of this mission and in every subsequent attempt.

The PM said that every difficulty, every struggle, every difficulty, goes by teaching us something new, motivates us for some new inventions, new technology, and this determines our future success. If the greatest teacher of knowledge is anyone, then it is science. There is no failure in science, only experiments and efforts.
I also salute the family of all space scientists. His silent but very important support was with you. We may fail, but it will not reduce our enthusiasm and energy. We will then move forward with full potential.

These are the people who hoisted the Indian flag on Mars in their first attempt. Earlier, no such achievement was named in the world. Our Chandrayaan gave the world important information about water on the moon.

Every experiment in science reminds us of
our boundless courage. The result of the last stop of Chandrayaan-2 was not as per our hope, but the entire journey has been spectacular.

I want to tell my scientists that India is with you. You are all great professionals who have given their entire life for the progress of the country and have given many opportunities for the country to smile and be proud. You are not people who streak on butter, they are people who streak on stones.

Friends, I understood your mood last night. Your eyes used to say a lot. I could read the sadness of your face. I did not stay long between you. You have not slept for many nights. Nevertheless, I used to feel that once in the morning I should call you again. Talk to you Everyone associated with this mission was in a different state, there were many questions. Moved ahead with great success. Suddenly everything has stopped appearing. I too have lived that moment with you.

The PM said that today our willpower to touch the moon has become more determined, determination has become stronger.

PM Modi said that even though there have been some hurdles in our hands, but this has not weakened our spirits, but has strengthened us further. Today, even though there has been an obstacle in our path, but we are not deterred from the path of our destination.

PM Modi appreciated the scientists for Chandrayaan 2 mission. He said that scientists keep battling for mother Bharati's Jai.

In fact, India's lunar mission suffered a setback early Saturday when ISRO lost contact with the lander Vikram just two kilometers before the lunar surface. Right now ISRO is waiting for the figures. Concerns have emerged on the faces of scientists as Chandrayaan has lost contact just before the moon.
At the same time, PM Modi encouraged the ISRO scientists and said that you have done a very good job. He said that there are ups and downs in life. He said that the journey will continue.

However, the future of Chandrayaan-2 mission costing Rs 978 crore has shrouded in darkness. Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) President K.K. Sivan announced the breakdown of the contact, saying that the performance of the lander was as per the plan up to 2.1 km before the lunar surface.

He said that he lost contact after that. At around 1.38 am on Saturday, when the 1,471 kg Vikram started moving towards the lunar surface at a speed of 1,680 meters per second from a height of 30 kilometers, everything was fine.

ISRO said in an official statement, "This is the Mission Control Center. Vikram was landing as per the lander plan and his performance was normal till 2.1 km before the destination. After that the lander lost contact with the ground station. Analysis of data being done." On the screens of ISRO's Telemetry, Tracking and Command Network Center, it was seen that Vikram slightly deviated from his designated path and then lost contact.
