Default Rover over the Moon

It looks like there might just be a Rover on the Moon.

I know I was over the Moon with mine, I hope all goes well.

Well done to India. They have successfully soft landed on the moon, which, according to the BBC newsreader, is millions of miles away.

For a country who have bridges and buildings falling down, cable cars that hang in mid air etc., etc., it makes you wonder "Why?"

Whatever their presumed failings are, that’s a matter for their government’s priorities. We give them ‘aid’ intended for their supposed charitable relief principles, our principles being charitable.

Perhaps if we stopped sending hundreds of millions to our nearest neighbour as a hopelessly unsuccessful incentive to help put an end to illegal invasions, we might gain some noble acceptance of being serious.

In the meantime, my point was what a tremendous scientific achievement for those behind it. That in itself might just lead to an improvement in India's trading status with associated benefits to trickle down.
