Re: Chandrayan-2 Mission
The videos have become pretty slick. If you see the landing site video with full music and full screen it looks really good. short and striking.

Re: Chandrayan-2 Mission
Why are they launching at night? Got delayed to monsoon season so can’t really help overcast weather.... It is because of the argument of perigee and the timing needed to have appropriate translunar injection so there are every day certain launch windows and this has to correspond to land on day1 o...

Re: Chandrayan-2 Mission
Lunar days are different from mars day so the battery which is discharged progressively can cause hibernation and later wake up. Problem is a Lunar day is 15 days and between extreme heat and cold so reawakening the rover is the challenge that all Lunar missions face unless there is an RTG

Re: Chandrayan-2 Mission
Amber and other gurus, which part of the entire journey from lift off to landing the rover would be cause for concerns & celebrations? From a mission perspective, that is. For me the most critical part will be Vikram's soft landing on the moon. As there is no air, the inertial guidance based re...

I think you need to review the video again. It clearly mentions what the PSLV 4th stage is going to doVaroon Shekhar wrote:^
In the launch preview, they seem to be downplaying the three orbit concept, they distinctly mention only two, then refer to the PSLV 4th stage more obliquely. Is the 3 orbit mission still on?
