2nd July 1969 - Man's Landing On The Moon.
Introduction -
The world was startled on October 4, 1957, when it come to know that Russia had successfully fired its sputnik or satellite to revolve round the earth in outer space. This gives a new turn to world history, A rocket had sent a man made baby moon against the force of gravity to the outer space. It was a wonderful achievement of science. It remained revolving round the earth for three months.
Space craft and its landing-
It was on 16th June, 1969 that America set up its spacecraft. It carried three of the most experienced spacemen of the USA. It was man's first voyage to the moon and everything was carefully prepared to avoid any failure or loss of life. The world watched the flight over television and waited in suspense for man's first landing on the moon, At last, on 2nd July 1969 man set his foot on the moon for the first time. The dream of ages at least came true. The spaceman Neil Armstrong was the first to land on the moon. He planted the USA flag on the moon, walked about 150 feet and collected pieces of rocks, stones, soil etc. to bring them to the earth. The world was thrilled to know man's conquest on moon. The two spacemen remained on the moon for short while and then started in their return journey. All went smoothly according to plan. It was perfect flight both ways. History was made and the technical superiority of U.S.A was demonstrated to the world.
Conquest of the moon-
Our flights followed and America could.successfully land man on the moon once again and he could stay there for a longer duration and collect much.valuable materials and informations. The conquest of the moon is of great significance. Moon is likely to be used for man's flight for Mars and other planet. Man's ascent to the moon is only a beginning of his conquest of outer space. Already the U.S.A. has.successfully launched space shuttle called Columbia. Hundreds satellites are already floating in outer space. They are already being used for the purpose of telecommunication, TV programme rallied through a satellite can be viewed all the world over India, too has not lagged behind. She has
developed her own space technology. It has now satellites revolving in outer space. T.V. programmes are now rallied through them. Star TV and global TV have now become a reality. Fortunately on 15th August 2003 Prime
Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee announced India's mission to the Moon in 2008.
Conclusion-
Conquest of outer space is no doubt a great achievement but outer space must not be used for war purposes. It would be a sad day, indeed if this achievement is misused. Former U.S.A. President Reagan came out with his Star Wars programmes. It simply meant the use of outer space for war purposes; spacecraft floating in outer space would be used for launching attacks on the enemy. They would also be used for the pur-poses of spying and taking photographs of strategic positions on the enemy territory. This threat raised storm of protest all the world over. But now with.the break up of Soviet Union, a Star War has become a thing of the past war era has ended.
