Sriharikota, Ta. 28 August 2020, Friday
Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) is now working on Chandrayaan-3. ISRO will launch Chandrayaan-3 in the coming years. Preparations have also been started for this. The lander and rover will be sent into space within this mission. Which will work in contact with the orbiter of Chandrayaan-2, which is already in lunar orbit. In order for the lander and rover to land properly on the lunar surface, a lunar surface will be constructed near Chhallakare, 215 km from Bangalore, in which pits with holes on the lunar surface will be prepared.
According to sources, a tender has also been issued for the construction of the fake pit. The contract will be finalized by the end of September. It will cost Rs 24.2 lakh to make this fake pit. The pits will be 10 meters in diameter and 3 meters deep. These pits are made because the lander and rover of Chandrayaan-3 can practice landing and walking on it. At the same time, the sensors in it can be checked. Also the lender's capacity will be estimated on this surface.
Most of the programs in Chandrayaan-3 will be automatic. Hundreds of sensors may have been installed inside Chandrayaan-3. Who will help the lander land the rover on the moon and work. ISRO does not want to take any risk like the soft landing that could not happen during Chandrayaan-2. So this time special work has been done on the sensors. This time the whole landing will be tested on a fake surface.
