Chandrayaan-2 landing: Modi expresses solidarity with ISRO after minor setback in Moon mission, says 'effort was worth it, so was the journey'

Firstpost  

Modi also recalled a number of ISRO’s successful missions, including the one for Mars, to assert that there is no failure in science but only experiments and efforts. Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday asked ISRO scientists not to get disheartened by the hurdles in India’s ambitious Moon mission, Chandrayaan-2 and asserted that there will be a “new dawn and better tomorrow”. Narendra Modi reassures ISRO scientists after Chandrayaan-2 landing doesn’t go as planned “The nation is proud of them and stands with them,” the prime minister said in a tweet moments after a dejected ISRO chief announced that there has been a last minute snag. PM stayed with scientists at ISRO Centre amid tense moments before landing Prime Minister Modi watched the entire proceedings of the lander’s nail biting descent on Earth’s natural satellites surface at the ISRO centre in Bengaluru. The prime minister began his near 25-minute speech, delivered in a mix of Hindi and English, with Bharat mata ki jai slogan and said he could understand the feelings of scientists a few hours earlier when it became clear that Chandrayaan-2’s final journey did not go as per plan.
