The Tribune, Chandigarh, India - Main News: "Moon mission announcement reflects long strides
Rajeev Sharma
Tribune News Service
New Delhi, August 15
Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s announcement today from the ramparts of the Red Fort of sending the country’s spacecraft to the Moon by 2008 is a signal to the international community as well as a demonstrator of the extremely sensitive and limited cryogenic engine technology it possesses.
Mr Vajpayee’s announcement — first by him with regard to the Moon mission — reflects India’s strides in space technology despite sanctions from the USA. It also reflects that New Delhi will take care of its long-term strategic interests in every arena, be it Antarctica or the Moon."
