Chandrayaan 2 Moon Landing

The lessons learned from the failure of Chandrayaan-2 contributed to the success of India's third lunar mission, former space scientist with the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) scientist Nambi Narayanan said.

The Chandrayaan-3 overcame several odds ahead of a successful soft landing on the surface of the moon last evening, catapulting India into the elite space club.

On Wednesday, the Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft landed on the Moon - an event with the potential to unlock real economic benefits.

It was a proud moment for the entire country as Chandrayaan-3 successfully landed on the moon on Wednesday.

The Chandrayaan-3 spacecraft, which was launched on GSLV Mark 3 (LVM 3) heavy-lift launch vehicle successfully from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Andhra Pradesh’s Sriharikota on July 14, has covered about two-thirds of the distance to the Moon. The spacecraft was successfully launched onboard LVM-3 on July 14, 2023, at 2:35 PM IST.

Chandrayaan-3, ISRO's third lunar mission, is all set to take off today on July 14 from Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh. The launch of Chandrayaan-3 is scheduled to take place at 2:35 pm IST with a hope for its success and soft-landing on the surface of the moon. The lunar mission will land on the southern pole of the mo...

Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) Chairman S Somnath on Monday said that the launch day for Chandrayaan-3 for a soft landing on the moon is July 13. "We will be able to do a soft landing on the moon. The launch day is July 13, it can go upto 19th," ISRO Chairman S Somnath said on the launch of Chandrayaan-3. He said that the launch date w...

Prime Minister Narendra Modi referred to the Chandrayaan moon landing setback as an example of rising from failures and overcoming "demotivation" during exams, while interacting with students at his annual "Pariksha Pe Charcha".

Chandrayaan-3 mission will have a lander and a rover, but not an orbiter, Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) Chairman K. Sivan told reporters at its headquarters in Bengaluru, according to an official telecast.

Chandrayaan-2's lander Vikram, which crashed while attempting to land on the moon in September, has been found by NASA, and the US space agency has credited a Chennai-based engineer who spent hours comparing before and after images of the landing site.

Chandrayaan-2's Vikram lander hard-landed as reduction in velocity during its descent was more than the designed parameters, the government said on Wednesday throwing more light on ISRO's dashed hopes of making a soft landing on the lunar surface in its maiden attempt.

At the time the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) was trying to land Chandrayaan 2 spacecraft's Vikram lander on the Moon, suspected North Korean hackers might have attacked the space agency, the Daily Mail reported on Friday.

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) will do everything to demonstrate soft landing of its satellite on Moon, its Chairman K. Sivan said here on Saturday, nearly two months after such an attempt of Chandrayaan-2 failed.

The Indian Space Research Organisation will put in all efforts to demonstrate soft landing in space in the near future and Chandrayaan 2 is not the end of story, ISRO Chief K Sivan said today.

NASA has found no evidence of Chandrayaan-2 Vikram lander in the images captured during a latest flyby of its Moon orbiter.
