India today on 22nd October 2008 6:22 IST, launched the Chandrayaan 1 satellite from Satish Dhawan Space Center if ISRO (Indian Space Research Organisation) on the PSLV C11 rocket.

The launching is reported to be a text book launch. This marks the entry of India into an exclusive club of countries who have sent missions to moon. Although, it will still take nearly 2 weeks to the Chandrayaan to reach it's destination, but the initial phase has been very successful and scientists are confident of its full success.

We here at Vshiksha congratulate all the Indian scientists and all the Indians on this grand success.
