Department of Space is conducting a one day Webinar on Unlocking India’s Potential in Space Sector on August 20, 2020. Eminent personalities from Industries/Academia will join to discuss and exchange the theme of Webinar.

On Monday NASA announced that it had confirmed the impact site of India's Vikram Lunar Lander after a 3 month search and a lot of help by Shan Subramanian, an engineer in Chennai who spent his personal time analyzing data from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter. It was long known that the lander had crashed based on radio data from amateur astronomers, but unclear statements from the press had lead many to believe the lander was intact. NASA's new images show fragments spread over several square kilometers showing that there was never a chance of recovering the probe after the software glitch caused a navigation error.

India announced it plans to launch its own space station by 2030. But how hard is it to launch a space station? » Subscribe to Seeker!http://bit.ly/subscribeseeker » Watch more Elements! http://bit.ly/ElementsPlaylist In June, the Indian Space Research Organization, or ISRO, announced that it plans to launch its own space station by 2030. This would make India the fourth country to launch a space station that is solely its own, along with Russia, the United States, and China. India is yet to send a human being into space and the country has not released any concrete plans on how it plans to build its station or what it will even look like, but it is an ambitious and admirable goal. From the Soviet Union’s Saylut 1, Saylut 2, and Cosmos 557, to China’s Tiangong-1 and Tiangong-2, we dive into what challenges other nations faced while putting their first space stations into orbit on this episode of Elements. #ISRO #Space #Astronauts #Seeker #Elements #Science India Could Be the First to Land on the Moon’s South Pole https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhWK_pZrXl4 Read More: India plans to have its own space station https://techcrunch.com/2019/06/13/india-space-station/ "India plans to have its own space station in the future and conduct separate missions to study the Sun and Venus, it said on Thursday, as the nation moves to bolster its status as a leader in space technologies and inspire the young minds to take an interest in scientific fields."

Chandrayaan 2 was a highly ambitious mission for ISRO, and while the orbiter is working the lander failed during the last few moments before touch down. Based on the handful of public statements, and images from mission control it looks like braking from orbital velocity worked correctly, but the transition to fine control for descent may have resulted in a tumbling spacecraft which impacted the surface at about 100m/sec. However I hope more information comes along soon. Cees Bassa's tweets with the radiotelescope trace can be found here: https://twitter.com/cgbassa/status/1170075259804012544?s=20

They're attempt to land near the south pole of the moon at 70.9 degrres south between craters Manzinus C and Simpelius N. This would be the first soft landing for India and will be quite an exciting event. The spacecraft, Chandrayaan-2 is actually made of of an orbiter/kick stage, a lander and a rover. And at a total mission cost of around $150 million USD, it's considered to be an incredibly cost efficient mission of this caliber. Since I'm going on a few hours early, I figure we'll replicate this mission in Kerbal Space Program and give you a sense of how they did it! ---------------------------------- Show your support by becoming a Patreon - http://patreon.com/everydayastronaut The best place for all your space merch needs! https://everydayastronaut.com/shop/ All music is original!

Part of India's Chandrayaan 2 mission to the moon may have failed when communications was lost with the Vikram lander during its descent to the lunar surface. Story: India Loses Contact with Vikram Lander During Historic Moon Landing Attempt: https://www.space.com/india-loses-contact-with-vikram-moon-lander-chandrayaan-2.html The Chandrayaan 2 lunar orbiter is still fully functional. Credit: ISRO

Former ISRO scientist S Narayanan Nambi said Chandrayaan 2's soft landing is the crucial part in this mission. Nambi explained that "if you allow this to land freely, it will go on crash". Chandrayaan 2 was launched from India's Satish Dhawan Space Centre on 22 July. Chandrayaan 2 left Earth's orbit on Aug 14 following a trans Lunar Insertion. Lander Vikram is set to attempt a soft landing near the moon's south pole.

India stands on the cusp of making history between 1 am and 2 am tonight. Moon Mission Chandrayaan-2's landing module 'Vikram' will start its final descent to touch down on the lunar surface. ISRO scientists are calling this the most "terrifying moments" of the nearly 3-month long Mission. A successful landing will make India the fourth country after Russia, the US and China to achieve a soft landing on the moon. India will also be the first to launch a mission to the unexplored lunar south pole. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will watch this part of the mission with 60 to 70 high school students from the ISRO centre in Bengaluru. The spectacular journey of ISRO's Chandrayaan 2 mission started on 22nd July. With the launch of the three-part spacecraft carrying a lunar orbiter, lander, and rover on a moon bound trajectory. In Depth today retraces the voyage of Chandrayaan 2. Recapping the many stupendous manouvres it had to make the challenges it has overcome to reach this far. To finally see the Moon within its grasp.

The Indian armed forces are all set to conduct the country's first-ever simulated space warfare exercise this week, which will lead to an assessment of the "imminent threats" in the expanse beyond earth and the drafting of a joint space doctrine for futuristic battles. The tri-Service integrated defence staff under the defence ministry is conducting the two-day "IndSpaceEx", with all military and scientific stakeholders on Thursday and Friday, in the backdrop of China's expanding space and counterspace capabilities.

GSLV-MkIII-M1 #CHANDRAYAAN2 Mission: Chandrayaan-2 will be launched from Satish Dhawan Space Center at Sriharikota on-board #GSLVMkIII_M1 on 15th July 2019. It will be injected into an earth parking 170 x40400 km orbit. A series of maneuvers will be carried out to raise its orbit and put Chandrayaan-2 on Lunar Transfer Trajectory. On entering Moon's sphere of influence, on-board thrusters will slow down the spacecraft for Lunar Capture. The Orbit of Chandrayaan-2 around the moon will be circularized to 100x100 km orbit through a series of orbital maneuvers. On the day of landing, the lander will separate from the Orbiter and then perform a series of complex maneuvers comprising of rough braking and fine braking. Imaging of the landing site region prior to landing will be done for finding safe and hazard-free zones. The lander-Vikram will finally land near South Pole of the moon on 6th September 2019. Subsequently, Rover will roll out and carry out experiments on Lunar surface for a period of 1 Lunar day which is equal to 14 Earth days. Orbiter will continue its mission for a duration of one year.
