KALPANA CHAWLA, a precious product of Karnal (Haryana) left us for good on 01.02.2003 when Columbia Space Shuttle launched by NASA collapsed just at the conclusion of her journey. Sky was not the limit of her.

For Indians, the grief was all more the intense because as a woman astronaut, Kalpana represented as new generation of her countrymen, ready to break all sterotypes to march into previously uexplored territory. As a woman and an Indian, she has done her country proud. Kalpana's name will go down in History as a brave pioneer.
