Nikhilum Chandrayaanum pinne naanum

Nikhil Narayanan ende oru online frienda...

I do not exactly remember how or where we bumped into each other in the virtual world. the first time I met him was at the BlogCampKerala at Alapuzha. Never knew much about his family or friends and never asked.

We talked about everything on earth almost everyday, and today after reading a beautiful blog of his, I know we will start talking about things outside the earth too. I learned that his father was at ISRO.

No wonder he was passing news and links about India's proud moon project Chandrayaan

The story had a tragic end, else he could have said he knew India’s second astronaut..."

"...The young boy looked expectedly at the grey colored VSSC buses to see if there were people he knew inside. He felt big, arranging passes for the whole class for ISRO visits, not to forget the brownies he got from teachers. Every time when someone asked where his dad worked, his answer took himself a notch above..."
