Thread: Chandrayaan 1

Chandrayaan 1 will take off in less then 2 hours from now I am going to be glued to television and this is what didint let me sleep all night

I am hoping that everything goes well and the vehicle goes into moons orbit and the impact on moon goes well.

India will get a huge strategic gain from this mission and also economic benefits in future

India will be the hub of commercial satellites in the next few years

yes this is really very exciting
I know this will give a good repo to India and do you know if all Indian scientist from NASA comes back to India and joins ISRO then we will be number 1 in few days



full pic of vehicle

i don't have a TV here will i be able to see it on net????

It wont be live on the net unfortunately but I am sure there are a lot of people all set to record the launch and post it on youtube My guess is that it would be available on Youtube within hours of the launch

For those who dont know>> After this launch India will be one of the neuclear super powers capable of striking anywhere on Earth

yes and i was reading about it, it will revolve around moon for next 2 years and will provide us all the data, it can see upton one meter under moon surface and after this India is planing to make a base station on moon where asronaughts can live for months and can carry on research work without any problems

this is really a great achivement

Best Wishes to the scientists and people who worked on this.
Good Luck on the Launch...

What happened next?

Was it a sucessful launch??

Waiting for your response guys!!

Its a successful lauch.THe rocket has placed the spacecraft in the orbit.It will take another 15 days to reach the moon's orbit.Chandrayaan-1, carried two instruments from the American space agency National Aeronautics and Space Administration.India will be the fourth country after the US, Russia, and Japan to have its flag on the moon.

:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

Hurray :clap::clap::clap:

If all goes well (hopefully it will be) Indian flag will be on Moon on 4th november

thank you son of jesus

Wish they had better camera video for the launch or even put some cameras on the launch vehicle, leaving my griping aside congratulations India!

Ya gr8 launch n all... but I still think the money cud have been spent some other useful way...

The money is wasted in many other way also...at least this will be of some help..

Money spent here is peanuts considering how much money is lost to corruption and diverting money meant for government projects.

Just consider this 883 Crores, the amount of money paid as bribes in 2007 by families below the poverty line. (from TII-CMS India Corruption Study 2007)

Compared to that this mission only cost a measly 368 crores :w00t:

yes i agree with this fact and i am sure this will give us a great chance to be on top. India is already leading in tech and other things lets rock moon and other planets too and apart from that this mission is not like other missions, it will provide us info for coming 2 years

Chandrayaan looks at Earth

Chandrayaan-1, India’s spacecraft to the moon, has beamed down beautiful picture of the Earth it took on October 29. The picture were taken by the Terrain Mapping Camera (TMC) on board the spacecraft after it was switched on. This photograph, sent by Chandrayaan-1 on Wednesday, shows Australia’s southern coast (indicated by an arrow on the globe at right). The picture was taken by the Terrain Mapping Camera aboard the spacecraft from a height of 70,000 km.

Amazing..but they should have bought Colour Cams this Diwali

Mission accomplished, Tricolour on moon

The tricolour landed on the Moon at 8.31 pm on Friday, opening a new chapter in the history of India’s space exploration.The tricolour was painted on all sides of the 29 kg Moon Impact Probe (MIP) which was attached to the top portion of the main lunar orbiter, Chandrayaan. The MIP is the brainchild of former President A P J Abdul Kalam.The 35-kilo payload crash-landed on the lunar surface at around 2030 hrs IST. The MIP has started sending its first signals to the satellite.It also contains equipment which will help scientists design a lunar lander or rover for the upcoming Chandrayaan-2 mission.
