ISRO’s Chandrayaan 2 Landing: India Is Proud Of Its Sleepless Scientists, Twitter Reactions
It was a sleepless night for Indians! The whole nation had its eyes fixed on the screens and waited in anticipation for the Chandrayaan-2's Vikram lander, which was scheduled for its soft landing near the south pole of the Moon at around 1:40 am on Saturday, 7 September.
Around 2:15 am, ISRO Chief, K Sivan confirmed that India's space organisation's contact with the lander was lost.
ISRO officials issued a statement that said, "Vikram lander descent was as planned. Normal performance was observed up to 2.1 km. Subsequently communication was lost. Data is being analysed. Planned press conference is called off."
Even though there was a landing setback and the nation's moon mission didn't go as expected, it will be so wrong to tag ISRO's mission as a failure.
Chandrayaan 2 orbiter has a life span of one year and therefore, it will remain active and study the Moon from a distance. It can very well capture the pictures and send them back to ISRO.
We still don't know what went wrong, but certainly, it is time for us to stand with ISRO and its sleepless scientists.
Watch Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressing the nation from ISRO Control Centre at Bengaluru today, 7 September at 8 am.
Addressing our hardworking space scientists. Watch. https://t.co/rPRfGBQLJQ

This tweet was in Hindi, which translates in English as- "We have successfully completed 3,84,398 KM in 47 days and the connection was lost when (Vikram lander) was 2 km away from the moon, this is a big achievement for us Indians."
हमने 3,84,398 KM का सफ़र 47 दिन तक पुरी तरह से सफल पुरा किया, सिर्फ़ 2 KM पहले संपर्क टूटा तो में हमारी बड़ी जीत
