A team in Jet Propulsion Laboratory( JPL) coins the term"15 minutes of terror". Tapan Misra, Senior Advisor to the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), said that this term was coined, to sum up, Mars landing of Curiosity, a car-sized rover sent by NASA. This term was repeatedly used for moon landing of Vikram. In a social media post, Misra said that scientists do a great disservice to science by coining such terms.
