	Remarks by NASA Administrator Michael Griffin at ISRO-NASA MOU Signing Ceremony \| SpaceRef - Space News as it Happens
		This was not the first time that the flag of your relatively young nation had been associated with the spirit of exploration, as 53 years ago India’s national banner was hoisted on the summit of Mt. Everest, upon the conquest of Earth’s tallest peak.
		Today, the Indian people deserve to be tremendously proud that the next time the Indian flag travels to the moon it will be placed on a very impressive scientific spacecraft Chandrayaan-1.
		Building on over four decades of productive and mutually beneficial U.S.-Indian space cooperation, I see great potential for NASA and the India Space Research Organization to expand our partnership in the future as we realize the potential of space activities to benefit our peoples and to extend the horizons of commerce, science and exploration.
