The tower of Babylon to reach the sky was built to exalt the glory of mankind. The attempt failed and instead mankind became divided through different tongues. Humans of modern century dream the same dream of ancient society to reach the sky and glorify themselves with superior knowledge. Will it follow the same pattern of history? The tower of Babylon was built by the Mesopotamian king Nimrod according to the text of the Scripture and the Roman Hebrew historian Ben Yousef (Josephus) Flavius). King Nimrod was the descendant of Ham, the third son of Noah. Hamites are black skinned people of Africa. The Indian Space Mission has been run by Scientists from South India. The origin of South Indian is Africa, children of Ham. The origin of Chinese is Africa as well through DNA research study. It augurs well that the dream of reaching the sky in modern century will become a repetition of ancient history. Hamites will lead the space race, as it seems to be. The Space Race: Russian artificial satellite Sputnik was the first to orbit the earth in Oct, 1957. The first atmospheric information and data were received through this mission. The first manned spacecraft by Russia in 1961 was followed by American manned spacecraft in the same year. China developed, but did not fly Shuguang, and is currently using Shenzhou (its first manned mission in 2003). As of 2011, only three nations viz USSR/Russia, USA, and China. have flown manned spacecraft. India, Japan, Europe/ESA, Iran, South Korea, North Korea, Denmark, and Romania have plans for manned spacecraft (for manned suborbital rockets). The first human-made object to reach the surface of the Moon was the Soviet Unions Luna 2 mission, on 13 September 1959.The United States Apollo 11 was the first manned mission to land on the Moon, on 20 July 1969. There have been six manned U.S. landings (between 1969 and 1972) and numerous unmanned landings, with no soft landings happening from 1976 until 14 December 2013. To date, the United States is the only country to have successfully conducted manned missions to the Moon. The Moon landing conspiracy theories claim that some or all elements of the Apollo program and the associated Moon landings were hoaxes staged by NASA with the aid of other organizations.Conspiracists have managed to sustain public interest in their theories for more than 40 years, despite the rebuttals and third-party evidence. Opinion polls taken in various locations have shown that between 6% and 20% of Americans and 28% of Russians surveyed believe that the manned landings were faked. Even as late as 2001, the Fox television network broadcast Conspiracy Theory: Did We Land on the Moon Which claimed NASA faked the first landing in 1969 to win the Space Race. Indian Space Research Organization(ISRO) under Ministry of Science and Technology established in 1969 superseded the erstwhile Indian National Committee for Space Research (INCOSPAR), thus institutionalizing space activities in India. ISRO built Indias first satellite, Aryabhata, which was launched by the Soviet Union on 19 April in 1975. In 1980, Rohini became the first satellite to be placed in orbit by an Indian-made launch vehicle, SLV-3. ISRO subsequently developed two other rockets: the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) for launching satellites into polar orbits and the Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV) for placing satellites into geostationary orbits. These rockets have launched numerous communications satellites and earth observation satellites. Satellite navigation systems like GAGAN and IRNSS have been deployed. In January 2014, ISRO successfully used an indigenous cryogenic engine in a GSLV-D5 launch of the GSAT-14. On 22 October 2008, ISRO sent its first mission to the Moon, Chandrayaan-1. On 5 November 2013, ISRO launched its Mars Orbiter Mission, which successfully entered the Mars orbit on 24 September 2014, making India the first nation to succeed on its maiden attempt, and ISRO the first Asian space agency to reach Mars orbit. Future plans include development of GSLV Mk III (for launch of heavier satellites), development of a reusable launch vehicle, human spaceflight, further lunar exploration, interplanetary probes, a satellite to study the Sun, etc. ISROs Mars Mission team has won the prestigious 2015 Space Pioneer Award in the science and engineering category in recognition of achieving the rare feat in its very first attempt.The mission was launched on November 5, 2013 and went into Mars orbit on September 24, 2014.
