Ashok Chandna, the Sports Minister of the Congress Government in Rajasthan, also extended his compliments to the ISRO team. While speaking to reporters, he stated, ‘We have achieved success and landed safely.
Representing ISRO’s maiden solar study mission, the endeavour comes with a budget of Rs 378 crores and is slated to span a duration of 5 years.
India had just launched the Mars Orbiter Mission (the Mangalyaan). While the world was lauding India’s achievement, the New York Times published a distasteful cartoon in its article India’s Budget Mission to Mars.
Vikram Lander” initiated its descent and successfully touched down on the lunar landscape at 6:04 p.m. This intricate manoeuvre was orchestrated through computer-driven instructions utilising Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Chandrayaan-3 will now be ‘deboosted’, meaning its speed will be reduced. As a result of this, the distance of Chandrayaan-3 from the moon will be at least 30 km.
Today, the Chandrayaan-3 mission achieved a crucial milestone with the successful completion of the Lunar Orbit Insertion (LOI).
Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is now heavily involved in developing a nuclear-powered spacecraft. To achieve this, ISRO has entered into an agreement with India’s leading nuclear institute the ‘BARC’.
The spacecraft will land on the Moon on 23rd August 2023 by 5.00 p.m. as informed by ISRO scientists. In 2019, ‘Chandrayaan 2’ could not land on the Moon successfully.
India will become the fourth country in the world, to send a spacecraft to the moon and the first country, to reach the south pole of the moon.
The head of ISRO, I think she is a lady, says ‘Ye saari scientific discoveries purano mein hai and that the West takes undue credit for this by considering them European inventions.
