But there is no mystery anymore when American Astronaut Neil Armstrongbecame the first humans ever to walk on the moon. That was one small step for man but one giant leap for mankind. India also makes it the fourth country in the world to send a spacecraft there and the first country to explore near the Moon’s South Pole. Now it’s a big deal as ‘Vikram’could do sudden hop before it set into sleep mode in frigid temperature because it sees two weeks of continuous daylight followed by two weeks of continuous darkness. The successful maneuver is expected to open up new possibilities for future lunar sample returns and human mission.
Scientists believe the Moon’s craters that are permanently in shadow may hold frozen water.
