Chandrayaan-2 Mission

The study also sheds light on the nature of the object at the centre. Earlier research suggested it might be a rare intermediate-mass black hole.

Over the past five years, nearly 1,400 radar datasets have been collected and processed to generate detailed polarimetric mosaics covering latitudes from 80 to 90 degrees in both hemispheres.

Indian astronaut Gp Capt Shubhanshu Shukla demonstrates space exercise methods. He highlighted the necessity of physical activity in microgravity to prevent muscle and bone loss.

Complementing Chandrayaan-2's observations, India's dedicated solar observatory, Aditya-L1, stationed at the Sun-Earth Lagrange point 1, also captured signatures of the powerful solar storm.

The timing of the image capture was crucial, as it occurred during a period when the sun's elevation was low, casting long, dramatic shadows across the moon's landscape.

The orbiter which began going around the Moon in 2019 has acted as a guide for several lunar missions since, but it has done more than that.

In one of the most ambitious space missions undertaken by India, on July 22, 2019 the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) embarked on an ambitious lunar exploration mission known as Chandrayaan-2.

The third spacecraft, part of the Chandrayaan program it will launch on India's heaviest launch vehicle Launch Vehicle Mark-III, also called the GSLV Mk III.

Only three countries in the world have been able to ace lunar landings, a dangerous high-speed game of synchronicity that happens 3,84,400 kilometers away from us.
