India's lunar mission Chandrayaan-3 holds immense potential for gathering critical data and will significantly contribute to the understanding of the Moon, a former top National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) official has said, describing India-United States space partnership further moving to the moon.

The Chandrayaan-3 mission has struck a chord with the common people in the neighbouring country. "India is marching ahead, we are nowhere," said Ayub Akhtar, a resident of Islamabad.
