Design of Moon Mission Spacecraft Complete
I just posted about the successful launch of Cartosat-1. And according to PTI, ISRO Chairman, G Madhavan Nair also announced yesterday that the design of spacecraft for Indian moon mission titled Chandrayaan has been completed!
Among other things of importance in his announcement is news of 34 metre antenna for the deep space tracking network. Didn’t know about that, or BARC‘s involvement in it.
I talked about Chandrayaan before when ESA announced backing it.
Update: Link to PTI’s report of announcement.
