India’s Space Agency, the. Indian space research organisation has made significant progress in lunar exploration through its chandrayan missons
Achievements:
• Chadrayaan 1( 2008 )
India’s first lunar probe. Discovered water molecules on the moon surface.
-1 (2008):
India’s first lunar probe.
• Chandrayaan-2 (2019):
Orbiter successfully studied the Moon’s exosphere, water ice, and surface mapping.
Vikram lander lost communication before landing, but the orbiter continued functioning.
• Chandrayaan-3 (2023):
Achieved a successful soft landing near the Moon’s south pole.
First to explore this region, confirming the presence of sulfur and other elements.
The Pragyan rover analyzed the lunar surface, providing crucial scientific data.
India become the first country to land near the Moon’s South Pole is the major achievement.
Purpose of the Upcoming Lunar Mission: Chandrayaan-4 (Proposed): Aims to bring lunar soil samples back to Earth for detailed analysis. Will enhance understanding of Moon’s composition and evolution. Could pave the way for future human missions and space resource utilization. India’s lunar missions strengthen its position in space exploration and contribute to global scientific research.
