When India successfully launched #Chandrayaan - 1 in 2008, the world ‘went back to the moon’ says Dr Mylswamy Annadurai, who is often hailed as the ‘moon man of India’. Dr Annadurai was the mission director of not only the moon mission, and later the even spectacular Mars mission of #Bharat, but also during his tenure as the Director of #ISRO Satellite Centre between 2015-18, he oversaw the making, launching and operationalisation of 30 state of the art satellites. In this exclusive conversation with the Sri Sathya Sai Media Centre, he shares about the unique feats achieved by Indian scientists and how these achievements have helped society in several dimensions. He reveals why he consciously chose to be in India and serve his motherland, and also his life’s secret mantras that have kept him going to keep the flag of Bharat flying. We are delighted to offer this insightful conversation on the 76th Republic Day of India.
