Happy Independence Day:
We are celebrating our 73rd
independence year. This blog is based on Patriotic theme.
Before beginning, I would like to say that this blog is one
of the best blog of mine. It completely content driven blog, there is nothing like
assumptions and Imaginary. We, As A Indian struggle lot in our life everyday
and this successfully launch brings very high satisfaction in our live. I knew
that many people from different area feeling proud and some of them even don’t
know about this. But As A Indian if we tell them what we achieved, they will definitely
feel proud as a Person, as a Indian, as a Nation.
This victory can’t be belonging to any particular party or
politician. This victory completely belongs to our scientist and their team and
its hard work. I have listened so many times “Modi hai toh mumkin hai” etc etc.
But this time, we have to stand above from these types of slogans, mentality
and cheap politics. Oppositions saying this project was sanctioned in out Govt
but Chandrayaan-1 was sanctioned in Atal ji Govt. but launched in Manmohan ji
Govt. So we have to move ahead of this kind of things. The time is for cheering
as a Indian, nothing is more important than this. This is the time to think
what we can achieve as a developing nation and how can we grow together.
Under an overcast sky at the Sriharikota spaceport on 22 July
2019, India took a giant leap to moon. successful
landing would make India the fourth country to achieve a soft landing on th Moon, after the space agencies of the USSR, USA and China. ISRO‘s
GSLV-MKIII carrying Chandrayaan-2 lifted off from Sriharikota at 2:43pm, 17 min
later, injected into a geostationary transfer orbit the lunarcraft comprising
an Orbiter, a Lander and a Rover. It is expected to make a soft landing on moon
at 2:58am on September 7, making India only fourth nation. K Sivan, ISRO
chairman said we have bounced back with flying colors.
Our PM Narendra Modi Ji said ”The launch of Chandaryaan-2 illustrates the powers
of our scientist and the determination of 130 crore Indians to scale new
frontiers of science. Every Indian is immensely proud today.”
Chandaryaan-2 study map lunar surface to trace origin and
evolution of moon, study extent of water on and below lunar surface and
payloads to study lunar topography seismography, minerals, surface chemical
composition. It will include water and find possibilities of human life on
earth natural satellite with aim to colonizing it.
Chandrayaan-1’s moon impact probe had detected signature of
water. Chandrayaan-1 was the first Indian lunar probe under Chandrayaan program. It was launched by
the Indian Space Research Organisation in
October 2008, and operated until August 2009. The mission included a lunar
orbiter and an impactor. India launched the spacecraft on
22 October 2008 from Satish Dhawan Space Centre, at Sriharikota. The
mission was a major boost to India's space program as India researched and
developed its own technology in order to explore the Moon. On 14 November 2008,
the Moon Impact Probe separated from the
Chandrayaan orbiter and struck the south pole in a controlled manner, making
India the fourth country to place its flag on the Moon. It carried
high resolution remote sensing equipment for visible, near infrared,
and soft and hard X-ray frequencies. Over a two-year period, it was
intended to survey the lunar surface to produce a complete map of its chemical
characteristics and three-dimensional topography. The polar regions are of
special interest as they might contain ice. The lunar mission carried five
ISRO payloads and six payloads from other space agencies including NASA, ESA, and the Bulgarian Aerospace Agency, which were
carried free of cost. Among its many achievements was the discovery of
widespread presence of water molecules in lunar soil. After almost a year, the
orbiter started suffering from several technical issues including failure of
the star sensors and poor thermal shielding. Chandrayaan-1 stopped sending
radio signals on 28 August 2009, shortly after which the ISRO officially
declared the mission over. Chandrayaan-1 operated for 312 days as opposed to
the intended two years but the mission achieved 95% of its planned objectives.
Chandrayaan 2 has carried 14 payloads to moon, here are 3
key instruments:
On Orbiter:
terrain mapping camera-2 will prepare detailed 3D map of lunar surface.
Vikram The Lander:
Radio anatomy of moon measure TEC of
lunar ionosphere and its morphology
Prgyan, The Rover:
laser inducted breakdown spectroscope to
derive chemical composition and infer mineralogical composition of lunar
surface
Like Chandryaan-1 found water, we are expecting that
Chandrayaan-2 will find more things on the south pole. The primary objectives
of Chandrayaan-2 are to demonstrate the ability to soft-land on the lunar surface and
operate a robotic rover on the surface. Scientific goals include studies
of lunar topography, mineralogy, elemental abundance, the lunar
exosphere, and signatures of hydroxyl and water ice. The
orbiter will map the lunar surface and help to prepare 3D maps of it. The
onboard radar will also map the surface while studying the water ice in
the south polar region and thickness of
the lunar
region.
We have already received Earth images from Chandrayaan-2. It
will take appr. 48 days to reach south Pole of moon. We all are pretty much
excited about and hopefully we will successfully complete Chanderyaan-2 like
Chanderyaan-1.
I hope this blog will definitely inspire you to do something
good in your resp. field.
Thanx for reading. Till den have fun.
I proud to be an Indian.
Jai Hind Jai Bharat
