On August 23, 2023, India etched its name in the annals of space exploration by becoming the fourth country to land on the moon and the first to reach its southern polar region. This monumental achievement marked a significant milestone in India's space journey, leading to the declaration of August 23 as "National Space Day" by Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi.

As India prepares to celebrate its inaugural National Space Day (NSpD-2024) on August 23, 2024, the nation reflects on its space legacy with pride and anticipation. The theme for this year, "Touching Lives while Touching the Moon: India's Space Saga," underscores the profound impact of India's space endeavours on society and its aspirations for the future.
A series of events and activities are planned across the country to celebrate this historic occasion. These events will not only highlight India's remarkable achievements in space exploration but also emphasize the tangible benefits that the Indian space program has brought to various sectors, including communication, weather forecasting, agriculture, and disaster management. The celebrations will culminate in a grand event in New Delhi on August 23, 2024, where the nation will come together to honour its space scientists, engineers, and all those who have contributed to India's space success.
