چاندرایان-3 moon mission will demonstrate ”soft lunar landing” capability of ISRO. This mission will also demonstrate قمری roving and conduct in-situ scientific experiments. The mission is a steppingstone towards ISRO است آینده بین سیاره ای ماموریت ها
هندوستان فضا agency ISRO has successfully launched چاندرایان-3 from SHAR Centre into فضا today on 14 July 2023.
After weeks of Earth-bound manoeuvres (EBNs), the lander will be inserted into قمری مدار which will be followed by several rounds of مدار corrections. The lander is expected to soft land on the surface of moon safely on 23 August 2023.
La مدارگرد of the earlier Chandrayaan-2 moon mission is still operational which Chandrayaan-3 mission will use and accomplish the crucial objective of “soft landing” on قمری surface that Chandrayaan-2 mission had failed to achieve as its lander Vikram had crash landed on قمری surface due to technical snag.
In addition to demonstrating safe and soft landing on قمری surface, Chandrayaan-3 moon mission will also demonstrate قمری roving and conduct in-situ scientific experiments. These capabilities were to be demonstrated by ISRO’s earlier mission hence this mission is mainly “soft landing” technology demonstration exercise.
However, Chandrayaan-3 moon mission is unique for its prime landing site (69.367621 S, 32.348126 E) is situated in the south polar region. Unlike heritage sites which are situated in the قمری equatorial areas, landing site of this mission is in southern high latitudes of moon.
Safe and soft-landing capability is extremely important technology for exploration and future colonization of outer فضا towards deep فضا human habitation. Having mastered this technology several decades ago through Appollo missions, ناسا is now set to embark on its ambitious ماموریت ماه آرتمیس designed not only to create long term human presence on and around the Moon but also to learn lessons in preparation for human missions and habitations on مارس. عمیق فضا human habitation, enabling humans to become a multi سیاره species to thwart the risk of extinction is still a very far dream however beginnings are being made. India’s Moon Mission should be viewed in this context as a steppingstone towards ISRO’s future بین سیاره ای ماموریت ها
If the lander of Chandrayaan-3 safely soft lands on قمری surface next month, India will become fourth country (after USA, Russia as successor of former USSR and China) to have such crucial فضا فن آوری است.
Both China and India started their قمری programmes around the same time in 2007-08. Chinese قمری Programme started in 2007 with successful launch of Chang’e 1 while India’s Chandrayaan programme took off in 2008 with successful Chandrayyan-1. China demonstrated soft landing capability through its Chang’e 3 moon mission in 2013 while India’s second قمری exploration mission Chandrayaan-2 was launched in 2019 after a gap of 11 years after Chandrayaan-1. The third قمری mission Chandrayaan-3 aims to achieve lunar soft-landing capability.
آخرین ماموریت چین در ماه Chang'e 5 در سال 2020 قابلیت بازگشت نمونه را نشان داد. چین در حال حاضر در حال پرتاب ماموریت خدمه ماه است.
