Chandrayan 3 a 15 day wonder There is absolute no need to gloat over about success in comparison.No nation like USA China has ever considered their achievements in comparison with other Nation feats.Our Chadryan has still to wake up from celestial deep slumber, where as Chinese probe sleeps and wakes up cyclically and is active since 2019 that is a long period and scientific achievement. USA has manned moon missions umpteen times with cache of moon rocks .Russia was the first to land a probe on moon and retrieve rocks Let our achievement be modest in comparison instead of boasting from roof tops .Whatever be the achievement late in the day let us be genuinely be proud and content rather than belittling others achievements and calling ourselves as great in comparison Political brinkmamship and science are on a different footing..Pioneer has travelled into interstellar space and still in communication.Dust has been collected from asteroid and retrieved after 7 years of journey. Probes are dropped on moons, Venus Mercury and Parker probe is exploring Sun .Giant Telescopes are giving a peep of never seen space .Potos of other planets including Pluto their moons etc are better understood and known But where is the hype and hoopla by politicians and Nations India does not have even a helicopter or for civilians or army.
