India created a history on Wednesday as its Chandrayaan-3 mission successfully landed on the far side of the Moon's surface. By landing the Vikram Lander module on the Moon's south pole, India has become the first country to achieve this feat.
"India is on the Moon," said ISRO chief S Somanath as Chandrayaan 3 lander module Vikram successfully made a safe and soft landing on the Moon.
Addressing the country soon after Chandrayaan-3's landing, S Somanath said, "I would like to take this opportunity to thank the people behind this mission." He also introduced his team after the successful landing.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated the ISRO team, its chief saying, "India's successful Moon mission is not just India's alone... this success belongs to all of humanity."
