India Moon Robot

The moment that a billion Indians had been waiting for with bated breath finally arrived as the Indian Space Research Organisation sharing the first selfies from the moon's surface of India's robots Vikram and Pragyan.

Amit Kshatriya, an Indian-American software and robotics engineer, has been appointed as the first head of NASA's newly-established Moon to Mars Programme. It will help the agency ensure a long-term lunar presence needed to prepare for humanity’s next giant leap to the Red Planet. Kshatriya will serve as NASA's first head of the office, with imme...

The lift-off of Chandrayaan 2, Indian's space mission that aims to place a robotic rover on the moon, has been called off. President Ram Nath Kovind was supposed to witness the live launch of the mission from Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh.

The twenty-hour countdown for the launch of Chandrayaan-2 mission, India's most ambitious space mission yet which aims to place a robotic rover on the moon, began this morning at 6.51 am. The moon mission will be launched on Monday at 2:51 am from India's only space port at Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh. ISRO will use its most powerful rocket launc...

The first images of India's heaviest rocket, referred to as "Baahubali", have been released by the ISRO just days before it ferries India's Chandrayaan-2 into space.

India's most ambitious space mission yet, Chandrayaan-2, which hopes to place a robotic rover on the moon, will be launched on July 15. President Ram Nath Kovind will witness the launch of the Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle Mark-3 from India's only space port at Sriharikota.

India's most ambitious space mission, Chandrayaan-2, that hopes to place a robotic rover on the moon could be launched as early as April this year, says Dr Jitendra Singh, Minister of State in the Prime Minister's Office that is in charge of space affairs.

China is planning to establish a robot station on the moon to conduct bigger and more complicated experimental research on lunar geography, a media report said today.

The mission is called HarIndianKaMoonshot. A group called TeamIndus is working away to be the first privately funded group to land on the moon and send a robot to travel at least 500 metres on the moon surface and send back high-quality images to Earth.

NASA plans to send its first robotic spacecraft to the Sun next year that is slated to get within six million kilometres of the blazing star to probe its atmosphere. Humans have sent spacecraft to the Moon, Mars and even distant interstellar space. Now, NASA plans to launch the Solar Probe Plus mission to the Sun which is about 149 million kilometr...

An Indian private company is in the race to put a robot on moon that will send back images. The competition is for the $20 million Google Lunar XPRIZE, under which the robot should move at least 500 meters on the surface of the moon and send back high definition photographs. The Bengaluru-based Team Indus has tied up with Japan's space enterprise H...

TeamIndus, the only entity from India shortlisted by Google for sending a robot to the moon, has received a string of interesting project ideas like 'how can one get clean drinking water on the moon or grow bacteria in the lunar environment?' from youngsters across the world.

JJ Abrams-produced web series Moon Shot showcases the struggles and motivations of the people behind a crazy privately-funded mission to the Moon

Villages on the Moon, constructed through cooperation between astronauts and robotic systems on the lunar surface, may become a reality as early as 2030, scientists say.

The flying robotic vehicles would use a lander as a base to replenish batteries and propellants between flights.
