The 'Chandrayaan mission' will give Indian scientists an opportunity to become international players in space expedition, giving them an equal footing with their global partners, a top space scientist has said.


"We must go to the moon and this is important because it gives an opportunity for Indian scientists to become international players," K Kasturirangan, Rajya sabha memeber and former Chairman of Indian space Research Organisation (ISRO) said adressing students at Centre for Basic sciences (CBS) here last evening.

"We must become equal global partners just as we are in the Antarctic expeditions," he said.
