On Wednesday, the Rajya Sabha unanimously approved a resolution congratulating the scientists on Chandrayaan-3’s accomplishments. After a discussion on “India’s Glorious Space Journey Marked by the Successful Soft Landing of Chandrayaan-3,” it was adopted. The Vice-President made a statement to the Rajya Sabha today at the start of a discussion on “India’s glorious space journey marked by the successful soft landing of Chandrayaan-3,” drawing attention to the fact that Chandrayaan-3’s accomplishment has made India the first nation to accomplish a soft landing on the South Pole of the moon.

With this achievement, India has become a member of the Artemis Accords, the U.S.-led multilateral initiative to place humans on the moon by 2025, he elaborated.
Tracing the Indian space journey of more than six decades, the Vice President underscored that India’s space program has witnessed the transition from dependence on foreign launch vehicles to achieving complete self-reliance with indigenous launch capabilities. India has not only developed the capacity to launch its own satellites but has also extended its services to launch satellites for other countries, with 424 foreign satellites being launched to date, he added.
