India made history on August 23, 2023, when Chandrayaan-3’s Vikram Lander achieved a safe soft landing near the moon’s south pole, a world-first feat. With the successful deployment of the Pragyan Rover, India became the fourth country to land on the moon and the first to land near the southern polar region.
The landing site was named ‘Shiv Shakti Point’, and this monumental day was declared National Space Day. In 2025, India will celebrate its second National Space Day on August 23, 2025.

Speech sample:
Respected teachers, dear friends, and my fellow students,
Today we gather to celebrate National Space Day 2025, a day that fills every Indian with pride. On August 23, 2023, India’s Chandrayaan-3 mission made history by achieving a safe and soft landing of the Vikram Lander near the south pole of the moon. With this, India became the first country in the world to land in this unexplored region, and the site was named ‘Shiv Shakti Point’.
National Space Day is not only a celebration of this achievement but also a reminder of India’s growing strength in science and technology. This year’s theme inspires us to dream beyond boundaries, just like ISRO scientists who turned the dream of landing on the moon into reality.
As students, this day teaches us that with dedication, hard work, and vision, nothing is impossible. Let us take inspiration from ISRO’s journey and aim to contribute to our nation’s future in science, technology, and innovation.
Thank you. Jai Hind!
National Space Day speech in Hindi
Adarniya shikshakgan, pyaare mitron,
Aaj hum sab yahan National Space Day 2025 manane ke liye ikattha hue hain. 23 August 2023 ko Bharat ne itihaas rachha tha, jab Chandrayaan-3 ka Vikram Lander Chandrama ke dakshini dhruv par safal roop se utara. Is uplabdhi ke baad Bharat duniya ka pehla desh ban gaya jo is kshetra tak pahucha. Is sthaan ko ‘Shiv Shakti Point’ ka naam diya gaya.
National Space Day sirf ek tithi nahi hai, balki Bharat ki vaigyanik kshamta aur ISRO ke atoot parishram ka prateek hai. Yeh humein prerna deta hai ki agar hum mehnat aur lagan se kaam karein, toh asambhav bhi sambhav ho jata hai.
Aaj ke yuva ke roop mein humein sapne dekhne hain, bade lakshya rakhne hain, aur apne desh ko vigyan aur antariksh ki duniya mein aur aage le jana hai.
Dhanyavaad. Jai Hind!
