India’s dream of going to the moon came true today. Yes, today on August 23 at 6:40 PM, Indian Space Research Organization announced the successful landing of Chandrayaan-3 on the South Pole of the Moon via Twitter. India’s mission to the moon is recorded in the golden pages of history. This is a time of great pride and joy for all of India. After many efforts today India has created its own history. Chandrayaan-3 was launched from Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh at 3.35 am on July 14. It is believed that Chandrayaan-3 will cover a distance of 3.84 lakh kilometers in 41 days. This was India’s third lunar mission. Let’s know where this mission started-
Chandrayaan-1
The first mission to the Moon was launched on 22 October 2008. This mission was approved by the Government of India in 2003. Five years later, on 22 October 2008, the Chandrayaan-1 (PSLV-C) rocket was launched from Srihari Kota. Chandrayaan-1 was orbiting at an altitude of 100 km above the lunar surface to detect and photograph water, mineral and chemical elements on the moon. Chandrayaan-1’s orbit was increased to 200 km in May 2009 after completing all the objectives. At the same time, a horizontal cave-like structure known as a lava cube was discovered on the lunar surface during this time. In this mission, Chandrayaan-1 remained in lunar orbit for 312 days and circled the moon more than 3400 times. The mission lasted for about 2 years but due to loss of contact, the mission was terminated on 29 August 2009.

Chandrayaan-2
The second mission to the Moon was Chandrayaan-2, which consisted of a lander, a rover and an orbiter. The main objective of this mission was to operate a robotic rover on the surface after a safe landing on the lunar surface. With the help of this robot, it was supposed to scan the atmosphere for minerals present on the moon and map the surface of the moon to find out whether water is present or not. The mission was as complex as it was important to India. At the same time, unfortunately Chandrayaan-2 failed to land on the lunar surface in 2019.
Chandrayaan-3
Meanwhile, Chandrayaan-3, the third mission to the Moon, has successfully landed on the Moon today. The LVM M-4 rocket landed on the lunar surface this evening, making India the fourth country to reach the moon. Today is a very special day for every Indian. On the other hand, if everything goes well, what India could not do in 2019 will do this time.
