Mistakes are stepping stones to better missions. - ?????????????? ???? ??????: If you can’t control the situation, don’t sweat it—just fix it. - ???????? ????. ??????????????????????: "I was the 1st Indian in space but the 128th human—and 127 came back. Odds were good!" - ?????????????? ?????? ??????????????: Successful missions happen when you trust the system. - ?????????????????????????? ?????? ????????: Conquering Mars? Only possible with global teamwork by incorporating diverse cultures and brilliant minds from across the globe. - ??????'?? ?????????????????????? ??????????: Life on Mars? Expensive, artificial, and not like the movies. - ???????? ??????????????????: Keep It Simple Stupid.

3 个月Truly inspiring talk with valuable suggestions to mankind by great Rakesh Sharma, lot of take aways. Very humble by saying 1st Indian but 128th human with positive personality. Highly patriotic, still I remember, then PM Indira Gandhi asked him how India looked from space, he told Sare Jahan Se Accha. Well captured dear Jyotica ??
