Part 1: India's space journey – from bicycle to rocket
Leave a reviewThe feverish excitement of watching the launch of Chandrayaan 3 is hard to be matched. On second thoughts, it could be matched by India winning a world cup in cricket (esp. if the finals were against Pakistan).We delved back 75 years to look into the stories that chronicled India's space journey. These stories brought us goosebumps and left us in awe of the father of India's space program – Dr. Vikram Sarabhai. When the rest of the world was busy fighting wars to send humans and pets into space, Dr. Sarabhai was clear that he wanted India to use space technology to help every single Indian in his daily life.
