PM Modi congratulates India for reaching the Moon’s South Pole with ISRO’s Chandrayaan-3

Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated India for reaching the South Pole of the moon with the ISRO’s Chandrayaan-3 mission. The project symbolizes India’s fourth lunar soft-landing and space program achievement.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated India on the accomplishment of the Chandrayaan-3 Mission on Aug 23, Wednesday…

He stated, “When we watch such historic moments it makes us extremely proud. The advent of a new India is now. According to Modi, the Chandrayaan-3’s moon landing is a momentous occasion and raises the alarm for an advanced India.

The South Pole of the moon has never been reached by any nation, according to PM Modi. We got there thanks to the dedication of our scientists.

PM Modi remarked that this flight represents the future of India. “New history has been written,” PM Modi declared. Prior to Chandrayaan’s lunar landing, PM Modi had joined ISRO scientists through video connection.

India’s Moon mission Chandrayaan-3 landed on the lunar south pole at 6:04 p.m. on Wednesday, making it the first nation to accomplish so and achieving a significant advancement for its space program. This moved India into the elite club of four.

India became just the fourth nation to accomplish this accomplishment and the first to reach the unexplored south pole of Earth’s only natural satellite when its ambitious Chandrayaan-3 Lander Module (LM) splashed down on the lunar surface on Wednesday.

Less than a week after a comparable Russian lander crashed, India’s space prowess received a major boost when the LM, which included the lander (Vikram) and the 26 kg rover (Pragyan), achieved a smooth touchdown in the south pole area of the Moon at 6:04 pm.

After the US, China, and the former Soviet Union, India is now the fourth nation to have mastered the science of soft-landing on the lunar surface thanks to this touchdown on the moon in its second attempt in four years.

A follow-up mission to Chandrayaan-2, Chandrayaan-3’s goals include wandering on the Moon, demonstrating safe and gentle landings, and conducting in-situ scientific experiments.

On September 7, 2019, Chandrayaan-2’s lunar phase was unsuccessful after its lander, “Vikram,” collided with the Moon’s surface minutes before touching down due to problems with the lander’s braking mechanism. 2008 saw the first mission of Chandrayaan.

Launch Vehicle Mark-III (LVM-3) rocket carrying the Rs 600 crore Chandrayaan-3 mission lifted off on July 14 on a 41-day journey to a location close to the lunar south pole.

Days had passed since Russia’s Luna-25 spacecraft, which was spinning out of control, crashed onto the Moon.

The 1,752 kg combined mass of the lander plus the six-wheeled rover is intended for operation for one lunar day (about 14 days on Earth).

The four-legged lander was equipped with a variety of sensors, including an accelerometer, altimeters, Doppler velocimeter, inclinometer, landing sensor, and a number of cameras for obstacle avoidance and location awareness.

The rover is transported by the lander in a container that has a ramp for surface deployment.

The administration of Prime Minister Narendra Modi wants to encourage investment in satellite-related industries and commercial space launches.

Within the next ten years, India wants its private space businesses to grow their market share in the world launch industry by a factor of five.

When the moon mission was begun, Modi declared that ISRO was advancing “the dreams and ambitions of every Indian” and creating “a new chapter in India’s space odyssey.”

Conclusion:-

Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated India for reaching the South Pole of the moon with the Chandrayaan-3 Mission. The project symbolizes India’s fourth lunar soft-landing and space program achievement. The Chandrayaan-3 Lander Module (LM) landing on the moon increased India’s space power. Private space companies are likely to expand their market share in the global launch sector within 10 years under Modi’s encouragement of satellite-related industries and commercial space launches.
