Why go to moon???What is there in moon we are curious of?

WHY GO TO MOON????? ORIGIN AND EVOLUTION. INDIA’S POTENTIAL .ONE MILLION TONNES

OF HELIUM3 ON MOON’S SURFACE.

HELIUM3 IS BELIEVED TO BE FUEL OF THE FUTURE.

OUTPOST FOR FURTHER PLANETARY EXPLORATIONS.

Introduction:

CHANDRAYAAN LITEARLLY MEANS MOON VECHILE .

INDIA’S FIRST UNMANNED MISSION TO MOON DEVOLPED BY ISRO.

WAS LAUNCHED ON 22 OCTOBER 2008 FROM SATISH DHAWAN SPACE CENTRE SRIHARIKOTA, ANDHRA PRADESH .

ESTIMATED COST - RS 386 CRORE

· Objectives of the Chandrayaan-1

SIMULTANEOUS MINERALOGICAL, CHEMICAL & PHOTO-GEOLOGICAL MAPPING .

HIGH RESOLUTION MAPPING OF THE LUNAR SURFACE TO IDENTIFY MINERAL .

3D MAPPING OF LUNAR SURFACE AT VERY HIGH SPATIAL RESOLUTION.

TO MOTIVATE THE YOUNG MINDS IN SPACE AND PLANETARY SCIENCE.

SPECIFICATIONS:MASS: 1380 KG AT LAUNCH.SHAPE: CUBOIDPOWER: SOLAR PANEL

GENERATING 700 W OF POWER, STORED IN A 36 A-H LITHIUM-ION BATTERY.

HAS THREE SOLID STATE RECORDERS (SSRS).

Liquid Engine used to travel towards moon.

Dual gimballed antenna to transfer scientific data.

•PSLV is a Polar Satellite LaunchVehicle, which launched the chandrayaan successfully in transfer orbit. •PSLV-C11 is the uprated version of its standard configuration. •Weighing 316 tonnes at lift-off,Uses both solid and liquid propellants.•Prefered launching vehicle of ISRO with 13 consecutive flights

Ground Segment:ISRO Telemetry, Tracking and Command

Network (ISTRAC) has established the ground segment of Chandrayaan-1, which consists of the following:

INDIAN DEEP SPACE NETWORK(IDSN)SPACECRAFT CONTROL CENTRE.INDIAN SPACE SCIENCE DATA

CENTRE(ISSDC).

INDIAN DEEP SPACE NETWORK:It will receive the

data sent by the Chandrayaan-1 spacecraft.

consists of two large parabolic antennae – one with 18 m diameter and the other 32 m diameter, at Bangalore.

SPACECRAFT CONTROL CENTREIt is located near the ISTRAC campus,north of Bangalore, is the focal pointof all the operational activities of Chandrayaan-1 during all phases of the mission

INDIAN SPACE SCIENCE DATA CENTREThe third element of

ground segment , also located at Banglore.

Will receive data from IDSN as well as other external stations that support Chandrayaan-1,

Store, process , retrieve and distribute scientific data sent by Chandrayaan-1 payloads to the user agencies.

C0NSEQUENCES:IT WILL INSPIRE MILLIONS OF STUDENTS

TO BECOME A PART OF OUR COUNTRY’S OWN SPACE PROGRAMME.

IT WILL INSPIRE ALL THE INDIANS WORKING IN VARIOUS FOREIGN SPACE AGENCIES THAT THEY HAVE AN ALTERNATIVE TO WORK IN INDIA.

INDIA MAY BE SEEN AS A VIABLE TECHNOLOGICAL PARTNER AND CAN POSITION ITSELF TO BE THE DESTINATION FOR SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH.

THANK YOU!!!
