Chandrayaan-3

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday said that with the launch of Chandrayaan-3, India today embarked on its historic space journey.

The 2019 movie Mission Mangal, in which Akshay Kumar featured, was largely based on the life of ISRO scientists who worked on India's first Mars Orbiter Mission.

Chandrayaan-3 will not carry an orbiter this time. It will carry an indigenous propulsion module.

Chandrayaan-3 may take 40 to 45 days to reach the Moon passing through these different stages...

The Union Minister also stated that it was India's moon mission series that found evidence of water on the Moon. He said, “I am glad to share that 24 hours from now, India will launch its historic Chandrayaan-3."

It will also carry a NASA passive Laser Retroreflector Array for lunar laser-ranging research

Chandrayaan-3 is made up of an indigenous Lander Module (LM), a Propulsion Module (PM), and a Rover.
