By now everyone knows Chandrayaan-1, Indian's first spacecraft to get go to moon is about to launch on October 22nd 2008!! but a site called hubdub.com is running an interesting silly prediction  that aims to answer the question ?

“Will India’s chandrayaan-1 probe will successfully send data from lunar orbit?”

I am 100% sure it will be a successful mission. India has done it all alone and I know they will fulfill all mission requirements and objectives.

 

What do you say?
