US lands Niel Armstrong on the surface of the moon.....JUST ON THE NEXT PAGE THE NEWS ITEM SHOCKED ME....INDIA NEEDS UNITED STATES TO HELP TO FEED ITS POPULATION THROUGH PL-480 WHEAT...THAT RED WHEAT ...WE NEVER LIKED IT BUT HAD TO EAT IT.

MOST SCIENTISTS CONNECTED WITH THE MISSION ARE RECIEVING SALARIES AROUND 2500 USD PER MONTH WORKED DAY N NIGHT FOR YEARS TO ACHIEVE WHAT MAKES US PROUD TODAY...THOUGH THEY COULD HAVE GOT MANY JOBS ABROAD 10 -15 TIMES...THEY OPTED TO WORK FOR LESS MONEY.....A BIGGER MISSION ..........MISSION INDIA...........WE ARE PROUD OF YOU AS A NATION
