Chandrayan-3
Chandrayaan 3 is a successor to Chandrayaan 2 and aims to showcase an end-to-end capability for safe landing and surface roving on the moon. It’s a relatively economical mission, noted for its exceptional cost efficiency, with a total budget of Rs. 615 crore. The land rover and propulsion module account for Rs. 250 crore, while launch services cost Rs. 365 crore.
Originally slated for a 2021 launch, this lunar mission encountered a delay of a few years due to the pandemic. Thus far, only three countries – China, the US, and the Soviet Union – have achieved soft landings on the moon. If successful, India will claim its place as the fourth nation on this esteemed list and notably become the first to land on the moon’s South Pole region.
