Chandrayaan-4 to Land on Moon and Bring Back Lunar Samples on Earth in 2027, isro

In the last few years, India has made rapid progress in space -related missions. The Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) has started preparing for its next Lunar Exploration Program. Chandrayaan-4 Mission is to be launched in 2027. The purpose of this mission is to collect samples from the surface of the moon and bring it back to the earth along with doing soft landing on the South Pole of the moon.

ISRO’s Chandrayaan-3 mission was successful. Some important information related to the moon was obtained from this. The total load of Chandrayaan-4 will be around 9,200 kg. This is more than doubled compared to Chandrayaan-3. Due to its high size, it is necessary to use two launch vehicle mark-III (LVM 3) rockets. These rockets will take five different modules to the earth’s orbit, where these modules will be docing before the Moon’s visit. ISRO has reported that four of these modules will go towards the moon and two modules will be landing. One module will remain on the surface of the moon and the second sample will bring back to the earth.

This is India’s first mission to bring samples to earth. This will increase India’s scientific and technical abilities in Space Research. Recently, Science and Technology Minister, Jitendra Singh had said, “Chandrayaan-3 mission aims to bring back the samples from the surface of the moon to the earth.” There is a preparation to launch some very important missions of ISRO in the coming years. These include Gaganyaan Mission. In this mission, astronauts will be sent to low-end orbit. The Gaganyaan Mission is to be launched next year.

Recently ISRO launched its 100th mission. In this mission, navigation satellite was launched with a GSLV rocket from the spaceport of Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh. It is the second satellite in the Navigation with the Indian Consultation (NAVIC) series to provide accurate positions, velocity and timing to users in the Indian subcontinent. The Navic consists of five second generation satellite. NVS-02 is designed and developed by UR Satellite Center. Its weight is about 2,250 kg. It has navigation payloads in L1, L5 and S bands.
