India has sent 2 moon missions so far, this is the third one, know what the country got from the moon

Chandrayaan 3 Launch: India is once again ready to fly in space through Chandrayaan-3 mission. This is India’s third mission to the moon. After the successful launch of Chandrayaan-1 and Chandrayaan-2, now India is going to launch it, which everyone is eagerly waiting for. Let us know what is the specialty of these three moon missions of India: –

How did the lunar mission begin
In the pages of history regarding Chandrayaan-1, the day of October 22 is considered as a major achievement for India. On 22 October 2008, India started its first lunar mission i.e. Moon mission. After several days of rain and bad weather, India finally launched Chandrayaan Mission-1 on October 22, 2008 in Sriharikota.

Chandrayaan-1 was launched from the Satish Dhawan Space Center, Sriharikota through the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle ie PSLV-C11 rocket. Chandrayaan-1 was India’s first spacecraft mission beyond Earth’s orbit. The altitude from which Chandrayaan-1 orbited the moon was lower than that before that no other country’s spacecraft had orbited it.

Chandrayaan-2 in 2019
Chandrayaan-2 spacecraft was successfully launched on 22 July 2019 by GSLV Mk III-M1 launch rocket. After this, on August 20, 2019, Chandrayaan-2 was successfully placed in the Moon’s orbit. Under this mission, the lander Vikram was separated from the orbiter on 2 September 2019, after which an attempt was made to soft land the lander Vikram on the surface of the south pole of the Moon on 7 September 2019. However, after a journey of 47 days, the lander Vikram was only 2.1 kilometers away from the surface of the moon, then its contact with ISRO was lost. Later, ISRO had informed that the picture received from the orbiter shows that Vikram Lander had a hard landing on the moon. Chandrayaan-2 had given India a proud status in the world by identifying the presence of water on the lunar surface for the first time.

Objective of Chandrayaan-3 mission
Talking about the launch of Chandrayaan-3 mission, now this mission is going to be launched on July 14, 2023, for which complete preparations have been made. Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft will carry a lander and a rover and this will enable them to reach the Moon’s orbit. Under the Chandrayaan-3 mission, the equipment has been kept in two categories. The scientific instruments mounted on the lander and rover have been kept under the theme ‘Science of the Moon’, while the experimental instruments will study the Earth from the Moon’s orbit. It will be kept under the theme ‘Science from the Moon’.

If we talk about the purpose of the mission, then three main things are included in it. The first is to demonstrate a safe and soft landing on the surface of the Moon, the second is to demonstrate the Rover’s visit to the Moon and the third is to conduct scientific experiments.
