India IS ROcking

August 23, 2023 is a very special day for India. The Chandrayaan-3 space program successfully completed its mission by soft landing in moon's south pole. This is a remarkable milestone in India's space research program and ISRO.

India IS ROcking.

The date of this landing is (written in Indian standard way of DD-MM-YY): 23-8-23. This can be mathematically referred as 23-2^3-23 (2^3 = 8). 

There is a close relationship with the numbers 2, 3 and this mission "To Moon". 23 = T(w)o Moon(u).

When you look up the sky for the next 14 days, say "cheese" to moon - there is an Indian Rover taking pictures :)

I am not a space engineer or not even in an industry supporting this program. Even then, i feel elated and get goosebumps when i read this success story. I don't know how to name or call this emotional feeling but it feels good.

I had grown up with childhood memories of hearing stories in the night that there is a grandma in the moon frying pancakes for us. This is a moment to check if that is true :)

Say "CHEESE"
