Specific scientific goals are: To prepare a three-dimensional atlas (with a high spatial and altitude resolution of 5-10m) of both near and far side of the moon. To conduct chemical and mineralogical mapping of the entire lunar surface for distribution of elements such as Magnesium, Aluminum, Silicon, Calcium, Iron and Titanium with a spatial resolution of about 20 km and high atomic number elements such as Radon, Uranium &amp; Thorium with a spatial resolution of about 40 km.By simultaneous photo geological and chemical mapping we will be able to identify different geological units, which will test the hypothesis for the origin and early evolutionary history of the moon and help in determining the nature of the lunar crust.&quot;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;cyaanques[5]=&quot;What are the basic components of the Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft?&quot;&lt;br /&gt;cyaanans[5]=&quot;The basic components of the chandrayaan-1 spacecraft are The scientific payloads: the instruments that will gather science data. The solar array that provides power to the spacecraft. Chandrayaan also carries a battery that stores the power generated by the solar array and feeds it to other systems. The thrusters perform fuel burns to change the spacecraft’s trajectory and attitude. The various functional requirements of the spacecraft such as Attitude and Orbit Control, Command processing, House keeping telemetry, Sensor data processing, Thermal management, payload data handling operation, duel gimbaled data transmission antenna pointing , onboard mission management etc would be taken care by the Bus Management Unit (BMU). The spacecraft also carries two star sensors and inertial reference unit based on miniaturized gyros providing absolute attitude.&quot;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;cyaanques[6]=&quot;What are the scientific instruments onboard Chandrayaan-1?&quot;&lt;br /&gt;cyaanans[6]=&quot;There are altogether eleven scientific instruments onboard Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft. Five of them are Indian and other six are from European Space Agency (3), NASA(2) and Bulgarian Academy of Sciences(1) selected through ISRO Announcement Of Opportunity (AO). Two of the ESA instruments have Indian collaboration.&quot;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;cyaanques[7]=&quot;What type of propulsion system will Chandrayaan-1 use? How much propellant will it carry?&quot;&lt;br /&gt;cyaanans[7]=&quot;Chandrayaan-1 will use bipropellant integrated propulsion system. The propulsion system consists of a unified bi-propellant system for orbit raising and attitude control. It consists of one 440N engine and eight numbers of 22N thrusters, mounted on the negative roll face of the spacecraft. Two tanks each with a capacity of 390 liter are used for storing fuel and oxidizer.&quot;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;cyaanques[8]=&quot;How will mission controllers communicate with the spacecraft?&quot;&lt;br /&gt;cyaanans[8]=&quot;If the spacecraft encounters a problem, it can establish contact with controllers on Earth through the Deep Space Network.&quot;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;cyaanques[9]=&quot;Can the team fix the spacecraft from Earth?&quot;&lt;br /&gt;cyaanans[9]=&quot;If a component on the spacecraft fails, controllers on Earth can instruct Chandrayaan to bring a backup online. If the spacecraft points in the wrong direction, its attitude can be corrected. If the spacecraft deviates from the desired trajectory, a controlled burn (thruster firing) can be performed to put it back on track.Most minor problems can be corrected from Earth with existing onboard instruction systems.&quot;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;cyaanques[10]=&quot;How is the spacecraft powered?&quot;&lt;br /&gt;cyaanans[10]=&quot;The spacecraft is mainly powered by its solar array, which includes one solar panel covering a total area of 2.15 X 1.8 square meters, generating 700W power. The panels are made of materials rated to withstand extreme temperatures ~ 119 ºC to –165 ºC. The power produced by the solar array is stored in a Lithium-ion battery, and then distributed from the battery to the spacecraft subsystems. The power system is designed to support various phases of the mission. The power will supplement the mission with equal efficiency in both noon/midnight and dawn/dusk orbits. The power system consists of power generation, energy storage and power conditioning elements. 36AH Li-Ion battery powers the spacecraft during orbital and lunar eclipses. Power electronics system controls the solar array power to supply the load and charge the batteries.&quot;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;thetime=5000 &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;i=0&lt;br /&gt;document.getElementById(&#39;source&#39;).innerHTML = sourceurl;&lt;br /&gt;showquestans(i)&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;function showquestans(i){&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;document.getElementById(&#39;ques&#39;).innerHTML = cyaanques[i];&lt;br /&gt;document.getElementById(&#39;ans&#39;).innerHTML = cyaanans[i];&lt;br /&gt;i++;&lt;br /&gt;if(i&gt;10) i=0&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;setTimeout(&quot;showquestans(&quot;+i+&quot;)&quot;,thetime)&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;}&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;function incrtime(){&lt;br /&gt;thetime=thetime+1000&lt;br /&gt;if(thetime &gt;=40000) thetime=40000;&lt;br /&gt;}&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;function dectime(){&lt;br /&gt;thetime=thetime-1000&lt;br /&gt;if(thetime &lt;=2000) thetime=2000;&lt;br /&gt;} &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/script&gt;  &lt;div class=&quot;blogger-post-footer&quot;&gt;&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;&lt;!--

Well if it meets that time, it will surely be at the aero show 2009.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class=fullpost&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;script language=&quot;JavaScript&quot; src=&quot;http://feed2js.org//feed2js.php?src=http%3A%2F%2Fchandrayaan-indianmissiontomoon.blogspot.com%2Ffeeds%2Fposts%2Fdefault%2F-%2Fchandrayaan&amp;amp;num=25&quot; type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;noscript&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://feed2js.org//feed2js.php?src=http%3A%2F%2Fchandrayaan-indianmissiontomoon.blogspot.com%2Ffeeds%2Fposts%2Fdefault%2F-%2FISRO&amp;amp;num=6&amp;amp;html=y&quot;&gt;View RSS feed&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/noscript&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&lt;div class=&quot;blogger-post-footer&quot;&gt;&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;&lt;!--

Its will not only put Indian space program to limelight but also enhance the space prowness of Indian space program. But what is the less talked about feature of this whole chandrayaan mission.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=fullpost&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s the 64-pound impactor that will be dropped from the orbiting chandrayaan spacecraft for a suicidal nosedive into the moon. The impactor as it falls towards the moon’s soil will relay video imagery, altitude information and spectral data back to Earth through the Chandrayaan mothership, which will be in a lunar orbit 100 kilometers away. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To my knowledge this will be the first Indian thing that will touch the moon’s soil!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight:bold;&quot;&gt;In what way will this Moon Impact Probe be useful for future missions?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;G. Madhavan Nair, Chairman, ISRO, answered this &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;The impactor is essentially to evaluate the lunar trajectories. When we send the spacecraft to the moon, the gravitational field will have a strong influence on its [the spacecraft&#39;s] orbit. We have some inputs available on this based on past missions. But when the spacecraft orbits the moon we will get some data on this. Using these, we will try to define a trajectory for the impactor. That will be one of our major experiments. As the impactor descends, it will take closer pictures of the lunar surface and when it impacts, it will kick up some dust. Using the mass spectrometer, we will be able to get the signature related to the composition of the material that covers the lunar surface. This is the first step towards later missions, which that will require a soft landing and a robot, experimental set-up to analyse and return the data.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Interested in seeing the animation or video of the chandrayaan mission, &lt;a href=&quot;http://chandrayaan-indianmissiontomoon.blogspot.com/2008/04/videos-of-chandrayaan.html&quot;&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;script language=&quot;JavaScript&quot; src=&quot;http://feed2js.org//feed2js.php?src=http%3A%2F%2Fchandrayaan-indianmissiontomoon.blogspot.com%2Ffeeds%2Fposts%2Fdefault%2F-%2chandrayaan&amp;amp;num=10&quot; type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;&lt;/script&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;noscript&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://feed2js.org//feed2js.php?src=http%3A%2F%2Fchandrayaan-indianmissiontomoon.blogspot.com%2Ffeeds%2Fposts%2Fdefault%2F-%2Fchandrayaan&amp;amp;num=9&amp;amp;html=y&quot;&gt;View RSS feed&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/noscript&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&lt;div class=&quot;blogger-post-footer&quot;&gt;&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;&lt;!--

ISRO and DRDO have been involved in projects which promise considerable respect and awe towards the two organisations which are always at the helm of technological development in India.&lt;br /&gt;ISRO launched a staggering number of 10 satellites at a time using its indigenous launching system, the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV)! The project involved nanosatellites from other nations too! Sriharikota, the mecca of Indian Aerospace Engineering exulted with pride as the common man of India also appreciated India&#39;s leaps and bounds in space research. ISRO missions are now almost independent of foreign technological help because now we have started constructing our very own cryogenic engines which is a remarkable achievement (apparently our ever-controversial dear Director is an expert in the field!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Read the full post &lt;a target =new href=&quot;http://hardikkothare.blogspot.com/&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Related links&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chandrayaan-indianmissiontomoon.blogspot.com/2008/04/videos-of-chandrayaan.html&quot;&gt;Watch the videos of chandrayaan-1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chandrayaan-indianmissiontomoon.blogspot.com/2008/04/lets-see-how-chandrayaan-1-looks-like.html&quot;&gt;How chandrayaan-1 looks like&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chandrayaan-indianmissiontomoon.blogspot.com/2008/04/who-is-actually-taking-chandrayaan-1-to.html&quot;&gt;Who is actually taking chandrayaan-1 to moon?&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chandrayaan-indianmissiontomoon.blogspot.com/2008/01/from-slv-to-chandrayaan-1-indian-space.html&quot;&gt;From SLV to chandrayaan - follow the story of indian space program&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;blogger-post-footer&quot;&gt;&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;&lt;!--

Indeed, while speaking to the media after the launch, ISRO&#39;s chairman G Madhavan Nair who doubles up as the secretary of the Department of Space (DoS), said as much. This record mission now puts ISRO&#39;s commercial arm, the Rs 600-crore Antrix Corporation, in a better position to capture part of the $4bn global satellite launch business since ISRO launch costs are a lot lower than those of its competitors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nair, who took over as chairman in September 2003, however, is not sitting on his laurels. In another few months, he plans to kick off the Chandrayaan mission, India&#39;s unmanned lunar mission. The idea is to, over a two-year period, survey the moon&#39;s surface to provide a complete map of its chemical characteristics. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Read more &lt;a target=&quot;new&quot; href=&quot;http://www.business-standard.com/common/news_article.php?leftnm=lmnu4&amp;subLeft=3&amp;autono=321912&amp;tab=r&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Related links&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chandrayaan-indianmissiontomoon.blogspot.com/2008/04/videos-of-chandrayaan.html&quot;&gt;Watch the videos of chandrayaan-1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chandrayaan-indianmissiontomoon.blogspot.com/2008/04/lets-see-how-chandrayaan-1-looks-like.html&quot;&gt;How chandrayaan-1 looks like&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chandrayaan-indianmissiontomoon.blogspot.com/2008/04/who-is-actually-taking-chandrayaan-1-to.html&quot;&gt;Who is actually taking chandrayaan-1 to moon?&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chandrayaan-indianmissiontomoon.blogspot.com/2008/01/from-slv-to-chandrayaan-1-indian-space.html&quot;&gt;From SLV to chandrayaan - follow the story of indian space program&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;blogger-post-footer&quot;&gt;&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;&lt;!--

Mean while why not know about the chandrayaan the craft that will place India into the elite club.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The moon craft is cuboid in shape of approximately 1.50 m side and it weighs 1304 kg at launch and 590 kg at lunar orbit and accommodates eleven science payloads. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well that is about the size and the capacity of chandrayaan, what about the power unit?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is 3-axis stabilized spacecraft using two star sensors, gyros and four reaction wheels. The power generation would be through a canted single-sided solar array to provide required power during all phases of the mission. This deployable solar array consisting of a single panel generates 700W of peak power. Solar array along with yoke would be stowed on the south deck of the spacecraft in the launch phase. During eclipse spacecraft will be powered by Lithium ion (Li-Ion) batteries. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;After deployment the solar panel plane is canted by 30º to the spacecraft pitch axis. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;The spacecraft employs a X-band, 0.7m diameter parabolic antenna for payload data transmission. The antenna employs a dual gimbal mechanism to track the earth station when the spacecraft is in lunar orbit. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;The spacecraft uses a bipropellant integrated propulsion system to reach lunar orbit as well as orbit and attitude maintenance while orbiting the moon. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;The propulsion system carries required propellant for a mission life of 2 years, with adequate margin. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;The Telemetry, Tracking &amp; Command (TTC) communication is in S-band frequency. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;The scientific payload data transmission is in X-band frequency. &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;The spacecraft has three Solid State Recorders (SSRs) on board to record data from various payloads.  &lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;SSR-1 will store science payload data and has capability of storing 32Gb data. &lt;br /&gt;SSR-2 will store science payload data along with spacecraft attitude information (gyro and star sensor), satellite house keeping and other auxiliary data. The storing capacity of SSR-2 is 8Gb. &lt;br /&gt;M3 (Moon Mineralogy Mapper) payload has an independent SSR with 10Gb capacity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Related links&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chandrayaan-indianmissiontomoon.blogspot.com/2008/04/videos-of-chandrayaan.html&quot;&gt;Watch the videos of chandrayaan-1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chandrayaan-indianmissiontomoon.blogspot.com/2008/04/lets-see-how-chandrayaan-1-looks-like.html&quot;&gt;How chandrayaan-1 looks like&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chandrayaan-indianmissiontomoon.blogspot.com/2008/04/who-is-actually-taking-chandrayaan-1-to.html&quot;&gt;Who is actually taking chandrayaan-1 to moon?&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chandrayaan-indianmissiontomoon.blogspot.com/2008/01/from-slv-to-chandrayaan-1-indian-space.html&quot;&gt;From SLV to chandrayaan - follow the story of indian space program&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;blogger-post-footer&quot;&gt;&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt;&lt;!--
