Chandrayaan 3: A Comprehensive Overview
Chandrayaan-3 stands as ISRO’s third lunar exploration mission, conceived in the wake of the Chandrayaan-2 mission’s setback. This mission serves as a logical continuation of the 2019 Chandrayaan-2 effort and is designed to demonstrate ISRO’s complete proficiency in achieving safe lunar landings and surface exploration.
The pivotal components of Chandrayaan-3 consist of the Lander and the Rover, both equipped with scientific instruments for conducting experiments on the lunar surface. The Propulsion module plays a vital role by facilitating the transport of the Lander module from its launch vehicle injection to its ultimate position within the lunar 100 km circular polar orbit.
ISRO emphasizes that the successful soft landing of Chandrayaan-3 on the lunar surface would mark a significant milestone for India in its pursuit of space exploration. Such an accomplishment not only carries scientific importance but also resonates across various domains including Science, Engineering, Technology, and Industry. It serves as a testament to India’s remarkable progress in the realm of space exploration and showcases the nation’s dedication to advancing its capabilities on the global stage.
