PM Narendra Modi excited to be at ISRO to watch Chandrayaan 2 launch at Moon
As per report india looks to create history by becoming the first nation to reach closest to the Moon's south Pole as the Chandrayaan 2 moon mission is scheduled to land on the lunar surdata-face after midnight today. Meanwhile the moon lander vikram that separated from its orbiting mothership has already performed two manoeuvres to lower its altitude for a perfect touchdown between 1:30 am and 2:30 am on Saturday.
Meanwhile the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) said the rover Pragyan will roll out from the moon lander between 5:30 am and 6:30 am, and it will carry out research, including a thorough mapping of the moon's resources, looking for the presence of water and clicking high-resolution images as well. Furthermore the space agency's Chairman K Sivan has called Chandrayaan 2 the "most complex mission ever undertaken by ISRO".
Meanwhile ahead of the ambitious lunar mission Chandrayaan 2's soft landing on the surdata-face of the moon, Indian poet and diplomat Abhay K has penned down a Moon Anthem. Moreover the diplomat started writing the anthem in the capital of madagascar, Antananarivo, after the Chandrayaan 2 took off and started its journey towards the moon. Perhaps its lines "mankind''s great leap, final solace, a pit stop to explore the deep space" goes on to call the Chandrayaan 2 mission a great leap of mankind and says it is a mere pit stop in the future explorations of deep space. Perhaps the Chandrayaan 2 moon mission is scheduled to land on the lunar surdata-face at 1:55 am on Saturday and the moon lander vikram that separated from its orbiting mothership has already performed two manoeuvres to lower its altitude for a perfect touchdown between 1:30 am and 2:30 am tonight.
