Fun Fact: ISRO ( Indian Space Reaseach Organization ) found water on moon on its maiden moon mission Chandrayaan-1.

I should have mentioned this months ago, but in February this video helped me get an internship at NASA. In my interview they asked me "what sci-fi technology would you like to see become reality?" This opened the door for me to talk about the benefits a moon base would have for deep space exploration. They really liked the explanation I gave, and I think that helped them decide to hire me. So I wanted to say thanks for all the lessons you've taught me over the years!

Dear Indians, he should have mentioned ISRO i get it, but he didnt say that NASA did it, its ok to feel pride but don't hate on him

Dear non-Indians, we just feel proud of this achievement thats y so many r pissed he didn't mention ISRO so plz stop hating

Moral: It's an achievement of Human altogether :) peace

We Indians Found It. Yeah We Did It. Wish some American knew about ISRO or you mentioned it in video. Now most viewers will think it was a discovery by NASA.

Edit : Btw he mentioned Apollo Missions so why not embrace India too.


NO hate to Derek. I LOVE YOU MAN #nogay

Veritasium Gadda love you for saying Celsius instead of Fahrenheit.

ISRO found it during Chandrayaan 1 mission!!

Come on man!! At least mention it

[edyram]

As soon as they reported WATER IN THE MOON in the news these videos went straight to the algorithm once again.

[neilsamuel]

all the Indians out here
chill out dude, let's just say humans found it.

1:55, ".... cameras on an orbiting space craft to detect...". that orbiting space craft is ISRO's Chandrayaan! I wonder why none of the channels(like SciShow, etc) ever mention ISRO.

Everything about this video was on point. The animations, the content, the music, and him.

To all my fellow Indian brothers and sisters, CALM DOWN! He said Scientists, not any random name. Just as WE, the humans landed on moon, it's WE, the human species who found water on moon. :)

Will be subscribing and informing students of your new channel.

Keep up the great work from everyone here at Skittles Tuition Centre in the U.K.

The impacter probe and the orbiter was the chandrayaan, India's first lunar mission. Derek should have mentioned this, coz he mentioned Appolo. Everyone will think that it was a accomplishment of NASA.

[okayokay]

by the way INDIAN space reacher (ISRO) found water in moon

[magicmushroom]

who's here after the announcement?

[MrBiochronic]

Hey Derek, I saw you on a documentary on TV a while ago. You've been featured as one of the specialists, explaining some science and mathematics behind ancient egyptian craftsmanship.
Was really surpised and happy seeing you there. Way to go pal! :D

2020 NASA officially announced water in moon

[manavshah]

ISRO found water on the moon ...I expected Dr.Muller to mention it.
