India embarked on an extraordinary mission to explore the moon. This mission was called Chandrayaan, and it marked India's glorious entry into the elite group of nations venturing into lunar exploration. Let us take a closer look at Chandrayaan-3, the latest chapter in India's lunar odyssey, and its predecessors, Chandrayaan-2 and Chandrayaan-1. Chandrayaan-1, the trailblazer, set off on its celestial journey on October 22, 2008. With indigenously developed technology, it aimed to create a detailed map of the moon's surface and study its chemical and mineral composition. Chandrayaan-1 circled the moon more than 3,400 times, capturing its beauty and mysteries from afar. However, after a successful mission of 312 days, contact with the spacecraft was lost on August 29, 2009. Nevertheless, Chandrayaan-1 made groundbreaking discoveries, including the detection of water and ice on the moon's surface. India's pride soared high as the country marked its place in lunar expl...
