India continues to make history through its perseverance, says UAE Vice President.
His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, today congratulated India for landing its Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft on the south pole of the Moon, becoming the first country to do so.
In a message on his account on X (formerly known as Twitter), Sheikh Mohammed posted: “Congratulations to our friends in India for the successful landing on the moon. Nations are built through perseverance, India continues to make history.”
The Chandrayaan-3 is expected to remain functional for two weeks, running a series of experiments including a spectrometer analysis of the mineral composition of the lunar surface.
