520 _aThe speech of Prof. Jitendra Nath Goswami highlights the epic evolution of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) to a stage where its scientists, engineers, and technicians perform cutting-edge research, leading to advanced technologies and processes. Many of them have contributed immensely to the emergence of a world-class organization, now acknowledged for its exemplary work culture. The speaker, the Chief Scientist of Chandrayaan-1, from his vantage point, underlines how ISRO's men and women surmounted severe challenges and brought about tremendous innovations to develop spacecraft and launch vehicles that met mission objectives within tight budgets and deadlines—a "can-do" spirit that is a lesson to all Indians. His words, within a few pages, reveal a saga of knowledge and willpower, which ultimately impacts India—a country that needs space research and applications to emerge as a leader in the comity of developed nations.
