Preparation for Chandrayan-3 is scheduled to begin by November next year

Bangalore, Ta. November 14, 2019, Thursday

ISRO has looked at future projects, forgetting the partial failure of Chandrayan-2. ISRO's upcoming projects include Chandrayaan-3 with various satellite launches.

ISRO has set a deadline for November 2020, from now on. Chandrayaan-2 reached the moon in September 2019. Lander of Chandrayaan-2 was found to have failed to land on the surface of the Moon. An orbiter part of Chandrayaan-2 is in operation. Now, by Chandrayaan-3, ISRO is preparing to land on the moon once more.

ISRO has appointed a committee and various sub-committees for this. The meetings of these committees have been started since October. At present, Chandrayaan-3 will not have an orbiter, only Lander and Rover. That is, the way Chandrayan-1 and Chandrayan-2 orbit the Moon, orbiter will not be in Chandrayan-3. Researchers will instead focus on lander and rover. So that timely mission can be prepared. Even now, Chandrayaan-2's orbiter is working properly, so the new mission does not require an orbiter.

Lander could not be successfully landed at Chandrayan-2. So it was broken. The landing of the new mission will be strengthened as it will not happen in the next mission. The full plans for the new missions and the payload of the mission itself are not yet ready. Soon it will be ready.
