The ‘Pragyan’ rover from the Chandrayaan-3 mission landed on the rugged, unexplored South Pole on August 23 marking a significant national triumph.

Much of the credit for the huge success goes to the chief of Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) S Somanath and the brains behind India’s ambitious Moon mission. S Somanath and the ISRO scientists have been heaped with love and appreciation ever since their remarkable achievement.

The ISRO chief was given a warm greeting by the passengers and crew of Indigo in a beautiful video that was posted on social media recently.

With pride in her voice, the flight attendant welcomed S Somanath and urged other passengers to do the same for the “national hero.”

He received a loud round of applause from the other passengers and crew members after the words of appreciation. Some turned to look at the renowned scientist as well. A different flight attendant was seen giving him some small gifts and a note of appreciation, which he receives with a smile.

The video was shared by the flight attendant Pooja Shah on her
