Big success in space, for India
Big success in space, now preparing for soft landing on the lunar surface on 7September
India has crossed a very important and difficult phase in its moon mission.
Chandrayaan-2 successfully entered the moon's orbit on Tuesday morning. On September 7, Chandrayaan-2 will make a soft landing on the lunar surface. With this, after America, Russia and China, India will become the fourth country to deliver a rover to the lunar surface. Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) said that the 'Lunar Orbit Insertion' process was completed at 9.2 am. It took 1,738 seconds for the probe to orbit the moon. Four more orbital processes will now be carried out to take the vehicle to its final orbit passing over the lunar poles, about 100 kilometers above the lunar surface. After this, the lander 'Vikram' will separate from the orbiter on 2 September.
Two orbital processes related to the lander will be carried out before starting the process of conducting a 'soft landing' on the lunar surface. The next orbital process will be started on Wednesday afternoon between 12.30 to 1.30. ISRO launched Chandrayaan-2 on 22 July from Sriharikota Space Center in Andhra Pradesh.
According to scientists, Chandrayaan-2 was to enter the lunar orbit at a fixed speed. If he had accelerated, he would have gone out of orbit and lost in deep space. At the same time, if the speed were less, the gravitational force of the moon would have pulled Chandrayaan-2 into its orbit and it could hit the surface.
No country has reached the south pole of the moon
Chandrayaan-2 will land on the south pole of the moon, where no country has been reached so far. Chandrayaan-2 will help unravel the moon's unresolved secrets. This will be a new discovery, which will benefit India and the entire humanity. According to ISRO, the South Pole of the Moon is an interesting place, where the dark shadow resides opposite the North Pole.
ISRO chief K Sivan said, "When scientists started firing the liquid engine of Chandrayaan-2 to enter an orbit around the moon, our beating had increased for about 30 minutes. Now the situation will be quite different during the process of conducting soft landing as ISRO has never done this before. Now the tension has increased, not reduced.
