About Chandrayaan: India's Journey to the Moon

India's lunar exploration program, Chandrayaan, began with the launch of its first mission, Chandrayaan-1, on October 22, 2008. This mission achieved the significant discovery of water molecules on the Moon, providing crucial data for future lunar studies. The program was established to systematically explore the Moon's surface, understand its geological evolution, and assess its potential resources, marking India's entry into deep space exploration.

The program's ambitious trajectory culminated in Chandrayaan-3's historic soft landing on the lunar south pole on August 23, 2023. This made India the first nation to successfully reach this unexplored polar region and the fourth country overall to achieve a soft landing on the Moon. The Chandrayaan-3 mission, comprising the Vikram lander and Pragyan rover, conducted in-situ experiments, building upon the Chandrayaan-2 orbiter's successful operational phase.
