What has never happened till date, what many negative people kept calling impossible, the task of making it possible was taken up by the talented scientists of our great country.
Only 10 minutes were left for the launch of Mangalyaan, and people's heartbeats were increasing continuously. Since it was night time, only a little view around the rocket that launched it was visible, but this view looked very beautiful, in the white lights it felt as if there was a lighthouse on an island in the middle of a sea of milk.
Slowly the time of launch came near, the thousands of people present there started getting excited, everyone's eyes were fixed on Mangalyaan.
Looking at a digital screen, it was evident that only 10 seconds were left and that too was decreasing second by second, the time on the screen was 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0 and as soon as zero appeared on the screen, the Mangalyaan rocket left the ground.
It moved towards space. After some time, the rocket separated from Mangalyaan and left Mangalyaan and moved towards the earth.
Mangalyaan also went out of the range of Earth's gravity into space, the rocket which had separated, returned to the launch pad. After this, the public heaved a sigh of relief and after praying in their hearts for the five astronauts of Mangalyaan, they departed for home.
Five astronauts were looking at the space in Mangalyaan. These five were selected for Mangalyaan after a very difficult examination.
The captain of this spacecraft, Ayut Upadhyay, was looking at the stars, Anara Prajapati, Krishnan Iyer, Gagan Kulpati and Piya Rathore were sitting next to him.
"Ah," said Gagan looking at Ayut, "the stars look so beautiful from here, don't they, Sir,"
"Hmm," said Ayut.
Then Gagan saw the face of a crazy looking journalist on the computer screen. He gestured to Ayut, due to which Ayut also started looking at the screen.
He heard the journalist say,
"How are you feeling?"
"Very good," said Ayuta,
"Yes," Gagan also said, "a strange happiness is running through our blood,"
