India has successfully launched the Chandrayaan-2 mission on July 22, 2019. The mission will send an orbiter, lander and rover to explore the moon's south pole. Chandrayaan-2's Vikram lander is expected to land around Sept. 6. Read our full wrap story: India Launches Ambitious Mission to Land at the Moon's South Pole
Chandrayaan-2 is India's planned second mission to the moon, which is expected to launch in 2019. It is a follow-up mission from the Chandrayaan-1 mission that assisted in confirming the presence of water/hydroxyl on the moon in 2009. Chandrayaan-2 will launch from the Satish Dhawan Space Center in Sriharikota, India, aboard a Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV) rocket.
According to the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO), the new mission will consist of an orbiter, a lander and a rover. The orbiter will perform mapping from an altitude of 100 kilometers (62 miles), while the lander will make a soft landing on the surface and send out the rover. The mission was launched to the Moon from the second launch pad at Satish Dhawan Space Centre on 22 July 2019 at 2.43 PM IST (09:13 UTC) by a Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle Mark III (GSLV Mk III).[9][10][23] The craft reached the Moon's orbit on 20 August 2019 and began orbital positioning manoeuvres for the landing of the Vikram lander.[24] Vikram and the rover were scheduled to land on the near side of the Moon, in the south polar region[25] at a latitude of about 70° south at approximately 1:50 am on 7 September 2019 and conduct scientific experiments for one lunar day, lasting two Earth weeks. However, at about 1:52 am IST, the lander deviated from its intended trajectory at around 2.1 kilometres (1.3 mi) from landing,[26] lost communication, and apparently crashed.[27][28] The orbiter, part of the mission with eight scientific instruments, remains operational and will continue its seven-year mission to study the Moon. India’s second moon mission is on its way. After a short delay due to a “technical snag”, the Chandrayaan 2 mission launched on 22 July from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in India. It is expected to touch down on the moon’s surface on 7 September.
The mission is the successor to Chandrayaan 1, which the Indian Space Research Organization launched in 2008. That mission consisted of an orbiter and an impactor that slammed into the lunar surface and released a cloud of debris, including water vapour that confirmed there was water on the moon.
Chandrayaan 2 will be more advanced, with an orbiter, a lander called Vikram, and a small rover called Pragyan. Vikram and Pragyan are designed to last for just one lunar day – about 14 Earth days – before they shut down in the chill of night.
