The Indian mind has long been pre-occupied with political and economic issues and the launch of Chandrayaan 2, The Rocket to the moon mission came as a great delight.
The fully-armed 44-metre-tall rocket lifted itself and disappeared into the clouds. The Rocket Man of Bharat, Mr. Sivan, space agency ISRO’s Chairman made history. We can see a new race rising, India’s scientific base revealing itself.
A mighty Nation emerging into a new world – a nation with unbounded talent. We must remember the scientific seeds sown by Dr.Homi Bhabha- the atomic scientist who promised our late prime minister Shastriji, whatever weapon you want give me few seconds.
India has a decent of noble scientists whose pioneering works have achieved world acclaim. Scientists like:
- Satyendra Bose – an Indian Physicist, specialising in quantum mechanics and his Bose-Einsten theories are part of modern scientific education. He was awarded Padma Vibhushan by the Government of India.
- Sir Jagdish Chandra Bose : He was a polymath, physicist, biologist, biophysicist, botanist and an archaeologist. If you look deeply into India’s scientific base, one would conclude that it is a scientific country with immense talent.
