Sriharikota: India’s Moon mission


Less than an hour ago India launched its moon mission. If it succeeds then India will be fourth nation after the US and China to have its own research on the moon. Prior to this India had sent Chandrayan-1 and Chandrayan-2. The first one was to orbit around the moon and Chandrayan-2 was to soft land on the moon surface, but that did not happen with problem with the Lander and the final stage of exiting the robot from the Lander did not happen. This time India expects it to do successfully for a soft landing and then the robot coming out from the Lander and helping in doing experiments surface of the moon from ISRO stations on earth.

That moment of entering the fourth stage was a big moment of pride and joy to everyone who were involved from the development of the launcher to the robot that would be sending communication to earth. Sixty years before Vikram Sarabhai had dreamt of exploring the space on its own and it has once again been realized.

Before ISRO starts receiving communications from the moon surface and be able to conduct experiments we have to wait for another two more stages to happen successfully, first soft landing and the second and final stage of robot hatching from the Lander which is supported by an additional propulsion jet to propel the robot from the Lander.
