Anything that concerns space, from spaceflight to finding exoplanets, is something that captures my interest. So today in the online BBC NEWS: Science and Environment, I read that India has finally launched their unmanned mission to the moon on the Chandrayaan 1 spacecraft.
While they aren't touching down on the lunar surface, rather it will orbit the moon for two years mapping the surface, PM Manhoman said that this is a first step for the country's space program. The site article contains a video clip of the launch and interviews with people on the streets to garner their reactions. It's a pretty exciting time for India, and even the world.
