COMMENCEMENT 2009

The mission has been immensely productive and so much data has been gained from the mapping of the lunar surface. It is a pity that such a venture by any other so-called "sophisticated" country would have actually cost $4B, an irony in itself. I am proud India did it for so less a cost.

I dont know whether you put the figures down by mistake or not, but the same people who are grinning that India doesn't have that much money should now be getting a sly grin back! Yes it does not have that money, but it still achieved lots more! Time to rediscover how your own government projects costs?

Well done Ranjith for penning down this article.
