"Stars appear as pin-points of light. They don't twinkle there as they do when we see them from earth..." — Rakesh Sharma

So much had already been done in space before that, it had all been documented and there were no real surprises in store for us.

Anyone who goes to space tried to look at his own country first, but soon it appears that there is no boundary between the countries and the entire world is one family where our destinies are integrated.

There is hardly a facet of an Indian citizen that has not been touched by ISRO's technology.

Watching sunrise and sunset from space, which is a beautiful sight, has been a personal privilege I have attained while being there. Another reflection from within I felt was that there was nothing which was neither visible and nor with a supportive environment as to how Planet Earth is.
