Tech Toys Hacks: India has now finally announced it’s third lunar mission. It’ll be the third attempt of India to achieve the soft moon landing.Following the mission that was failed during the landing last year.
The government of India finally has approved the third third moon mission of India . the mission will be named “Chandrayan 3” taken from the sanskrit means “ moon vehicle” _ will have a new propulsion module, moon lander and rover, Sivan said in a news conference on Wednesday.
The new mission’s equipment would cost around $35 million with it’s launcher costing a further $51 million. Which will make India a cost effective space power. India will become the fourth only country to make a soft landing on the moon’s surface following the United States, Soviet Union and China. But the first country to land on the south pole of the moon if successfull . India’s first moon mission was in 2008, when it crashed with an impact into the moon in a controlling landing. But achieving soft landing is far a greater technical challenge for ISRO.
The announcement on Wednesday comes the months only after India’s failed second moon landing mission named “Chandrayan 2”, which had send out to collect chemical samples and minerals from the moon’s surface.
The mission launched on 22nd of July 2019 and entered the lunar orbit in August but it lost communication with India’s space agency while slowly made its way towards the moon’s surface in September.
“The Chadrayan 2 mission’s lander Vikram had a very hard landing and the location is still unknown”. NASA said.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, later consoled the team of scientists who worked hard for the chandrayan 2 mission in the televised address.
“ With great satisfaction and efforts we will look back at the journey,” Modi said. “ From today’s learnings we become stronger and better. It’s  new dawn and will be a brighter tomorrow soon”.
The lunar landing attempts shows the India’s great space ambitions. The country wants to put Indian astronaut by 2022 and become a major space player with cost effection.
“The Indian space agency is doing a great progress towards it’s first manned mission in space, and already have choosed four astronauts for further training,” Sivan said on Wednesday.
In 2014 when the global community were criticising India for the interplanetary mission, India became the first country in the world to reach the mars in it’s first attempt. This mission has achieved on a reletively low budget costs just a $74 million_ which is less than the $100 milion spent on making the Hollywood space thriller “Gravity”.
 We hope for the best luck for Indian SpaceResearch Organisation ( ISRO) this time.
