Chandrayaan reaches Moon and drops the Indian flag

As a result of Bharat's best Prime Minister Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee's esteem vision which is now a reality and hard work of Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) under the leadership of Shri Madhavan Nair, चंद्रयान १ (Chandrayaan 1) has reached the Moon successfully. It dropped on the moon a probe with Bharatiya flag on it as shown below:

The mission also had a picture perfect launch. You can watch Chandrayaan's launch video here.

It is amazing to note that foreigners are pronouncing Chandrayaan correctly rather than the phony Indian media. Good to know. Here is CNN on the Hindu Moon mission.
