It was on July 20, 1969 who”Eagle”, the lunar module landed on the moon along with American Astronaut Neil Armstrong took”that a little step” paving method for”a giant leap for humanity”.
In 2007-08, Chandrayan I, which will be followed by the CHANGE-I of China will be launched by India. Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) is currently spear-heading all of the activities in the area.
Chandrayan I,” India’s first unmanned mission to moon was first announced on August 15, 2003. The Chandrayan I mission envisages putting a 525 kg satellite in a polar orbit 100 kilometers above the moon and it’ll be started with a modified variant of India’s indigenous Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV).
The principal objectives of the Chandrayan include obtaining vision of the moon’s surface using a high resolution remote sensing instruments from the low and high area.
Thinking about the attention shown by the international community, a provision has also been built to adapt tools from other countries. ISRO signed an agreement with ESA for such as European tools. The European Instruments are to match the India experiments. The US is also currently considering setting up two tools on Chandrayan-1.
Whether India must embark upon a mission that is manned or not it is a topic of national debate considering sending a man is a costly affair.
A manned mission could take about seven to ten years to reach and would charge at least.2 billion.
