India’s ISRO Achieves Historic Moon Landing
India’s space agency, ISRO, has made history by becoming the first country to land on the South Pole of the Moon. This achievement sets India apart from superpowers and marks a significant milestone.
Successful Moon Landing by Vikram Lander
Under ISRO’s Chandrayaan 3 project, the Vikram Lander successfully landed on a region called Zabili. The soft landing process started at 5.44 pm, and the lander safely touched down on the moon at 6.04 pm.
Learning from Past Mistakes
Despite the setbacks of the Chandrayaan-2 mission, ISRO didn’t give up. They launched Chandrayaan-3 with new experiments. This time, India succeeded in achieving a remarkable success after learning from the errors of the past.
Chandrayaan 3’s Ambitious Goals
The Chandrayaan mission had ambitious goals beyond the successful landing. Chandrayaan 3 plans to launch multiple missions, with objectives like mineral examination and mining on the moon. Some experts even suggest ISRO may have plans to send a human to the moon, akin to NASA’s Artemis program.
ISRO’s Global Partnerships
ISRO has formed agreements with over 50 countries and organizations. Known for its efficient and cost-effective technology, ISRO is a world leader in communication technology. Chandrayaan’s success is expected to boost India’s reputation and encourage other countries to join lunar research efforts.
Expanding into the Future
Looking ahead, ISRO’s influence could grow further. If ISRO establishes a launching station on the moon for interplanetary travel, many countries might collaborate to use it, boosting ISRO’s revenue and global standing.
