Former Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO)


scientist Nambi Narayanan on Thursday hailed
Chandrayaan-3 as a potential game-changer that will
serve as an inspiration to the whole world. His
comments come on the eve of the launch of India’s
ambitious moon mission. He added that the third
lunar exploration mission is trying to avoid the
problems that happened with Chandrayaan-2.

''Chandrayaan-3 will definitely be a game changer for


India and I hope it will be successful. India will
become an inspiration to the entire world. Let's wait
for the launch and pray for the best..." he said.

Talking to news agency PTI, Narayanan said that a


successful landing will make India the fourth country
- the others being the United States, China and the
former Soviet Union - to achieve this feat. Apart from
boosting the economy and development in the space
sector, it will also improve India's share from the
present 2 per cent in the 600 billion-dollar industry.

Lauding private players in space technology, the


aerospace scientist said that it enhances the scope
for startups and more funding to enter the realm.
"Many foreign countries may also land here with
their startups or add to an existing startup,"
Narayanan added.

Narayanan, who was at the centre of a conspiracy to


frame him in an espionage case, said that
indigenously developed technology is essential for a
country to survive. "When compared to other
nations, our spending for such missions is a pittance,"
he noted.

Narayanan said we will have to wait till August 23 or


24 to know the success of the mission as the landing
would take place on those dates.

He also talked about the need for establishing an


Asian Space Agency (ASA) similar to the European
Space Agency (ESA), with or without China, for taking
up bigger space missions.

Chandrayan-2 managed to land on the Moon but


failed to do a soft landing due to software and
mechanical issues.

Chandrayaan-3 will be launched Friday at 2.35pm on


Launch Vehicle Mark-3 rocket from the Satish
Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota. A day before
the launch, a team ISRO scientists visited the Tirupati
Venkatachalapathy Temple with a miniature model of
Chandrayaan-3.
