Chandrayaan-3 success will come if THIS happens on Pragyan Rover, Vikram Lander

[ad_1] Yesterday, September 22, was a crucial day for the Chandrayaan-3 mission. Earlier, reports said that the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) was going to begin its efforts to revive the Vikram Lander and Pragyan Rover that have been hibernating on the South Pole region of the Moon for the last 14 days after the lunar night struck and temperatures can go as low as -200 degrees Celsius. Some later reports mentioned that there might be some delays, but later, ISRO director Nilesh Desai confirmed that the process was underway. However, no signals have been received from the modules despite the efforts of ISRO. While the situation remains uncertain, a former ISRO chief has shared a word of optimism for everyone waiting in anticipation.K. Sivan, former ISRO chairman, spoke with A...

Will Chandrayaan-3 rise again? ISRO to wake up Vikram Lander, Pragyan Rover as Sun shines on Moon

[ad_1] As per reports, today, September 22, can be the date when the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) makes an attempt to reestablish connection with the Vikram Lander and Pragyan Rover to revive the Chandrayaan-3 mission, which is currently in pause mode. Both were put to sleep in early September after the modules conducted 14 days of investigation as the lunar night set in. The original mission was scheduled for this period only, which is also known as a lunar day (14 Earth day period), as there will be no sunlight and extremely low temperatures to deal with during the lunar night. However, the dark night is over. After another 14 days, sunlight is finally beginning to shine on the Moon's South Pole region. ISRO is now expected to make efforts to reestablish contact with both...

Chandrayaan-3 mission: ISRO set to resurrect Vikram Lander, Pragyan Rover as India eyes TRIUMPH

[ad_1] Chandrayaan-3, India's first-ever lunar mission to successfully land on the Moon, and the world's first mission to explore the South Pole there, is now at a very delicate stage and today it will be decided whether the mission stays alive or is declared dead. It all hinges on Vikram Lander and Pragyan Rover. In early September, both of them were put to sleep after 14 days of investigation when the lunar night set in. This was done because the original mission was planned to be run for a duration of 14 days, and due to the lunar night arriving, the lander and the rover would not get sunlight to charge their batteries. But now, after another 14 days, sunlight is finally beginning to hit the Moon's South Pole region. As per reports, the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) will ...

Chandrayaan-3 lander snaps far side of the Moon as it readies for touchdown

[ad_1] The countdown to the touchdown of the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO)'s Chandryaan-3 spacecraft has now begun. With just 3 days to go, the anticipation is building up. The last-minute failure of Russia's Luna-25 spacecraft, which was also on a similar mission, means that all eyes are on the Indian spacecraft. With the touchdown looming, ISRO has now shared new images of the far side of the Moon captured by the camera aboard the Chandrayaan-3. Chandrayaan-3 snaps lunar far sideThe images were captured by Lander Hazard Detection and Avoidance Camera (LHDAC) aboard the spacecraft, which aids in locating a safe landing area, avoiding any deep trenches or huge rocks that could hamper the landing. The LHDAC camera was developed by ISRO at the Space Applications Center, a spac...

ISRO Upcoming Space Missions and Launches 2023; See the Complete List here from

[ad_1] ISRO is planning to launch various space missions in 2023! Check out the complete list of space missions planned by the Indian space agency. For decades, various space agencies around the world have been on a mission to explore uncharted celestial bodies out in space. NASA, ESA and other agencies have sent missions to the Moon, Mars and other planets to observe, study and yes, in a sense, conquer them. However, one highly capable space agency that is not talked about much is our very own Indian Space and Research Organisation (ISRO). ISRO has conducted various space missions since its establishment in 1969. But how are these missions any different? Well, you'll be pleasantly surprised to know that ISRO conducted the complicated Chandrayaan-2 mission successfully at a cost lower...
