Digital Desk: The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) launched the lunar mission on the heavylift LVM3-M4 rocket from Sriharikota at 2:35 p.m. IST today.
If all goes as planned, the "soft-landing on the moon could happen on August 23 or 24," stated ISRO chief S Somanath, who spoke as the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) launched Chandrayaan-3, its third lunar mission, in Sriharikota on Friday.
"We will now raise the orbit to inject into trans-lunar orbit. If all goes as planned, we'll leave the planet on August 1. Chandrayaan-3 will then begin its trip to the moon," S Somanath stated while answering a news agency.
"At the location of the landing, there is an illuminated source, which will be useful for solar power generation." As a result, our craft will have 15 days. "We're looking into developing a global signature that can distinguish between living and non-living planets," he continued saying.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi hailed the launch of Chandrayaan-3 on Friday as a "new chapter" in India's space odyssey, which has boosted the hopes and aspirations of every Indian.
"Chandrayaan-3 ushers in a new era in India's space odyssey." "It soars high, elevating every Indian's dreams and ambitions," Modi remarked in a tweet. "This historic achievement is a testament to our scientists' unwavering dedication." "I applaud their spirit and ingenuity!" he exclaimed.
Following the orbit-raising efforts, Chandrayaan-3 will be launched into the lunar transfer trajectory. Scientists seek to achieve flawless gentle landings on the lunar surface with the daunting technological achievement of the Chandrayaan-3 mission, which is scheduled for late August. If the mission is successful, India will become the fourth country to accomplish the extraordinary accomplishment, joining the United States, China, and the erstwhile Soviet Union.
The propulsion module and the lander would accelerate and travel to the moon's orbit for more than a month before coming to a stop 100 kilometres above the lunar surface.
About 16 minutes after launch, the propulsion module will separate from the rocket and start a journey around the earth in an elliptical orbit that will bring it 170 kilometres closer to the moon and 36,500 kilometres further away.
The Chandrayaan-3 mission replaces Chandrayaan-2, which failed to perform the planned soft landing on the moon's surface in 2019.
