INTER-HOUSE ACTIVITY OF CLASS 7 AND CLASS 8 on "Scientific Evidence" , enhancing scientific attitude through activity based approaches

CHANDRAYAAN-2 LANDING

Dear Parent

I earnestly request all of you not to sleep on September 6th but watch the final few hour's of OUR AWESOME SPACECRAFT, CHANDRAYAAN-2, as it will land on the South Pole of our moon around 1.40 AM on September 7th. Although, I have complete confidence in OUR OWN ISRO, please remember that we are dealing with lunar dust which is very fine and also electrically charged. So much so that it sticks to any surface....We need the collective prayers of 1.2 billion Indians to make this a great and unprecedented success. ISRO with a budget of $ 1.2 billion is really giving NASA, with a budget of $ 21 billion, a run for its money. Since I have so many dear friends who speak and write most major languages, not to speak of friends from every religion and residing in so many countries, I humbly request all of you to translate this message into your respective languages and forward to as many people as possible so it will reach every Indian on this planet. I have never ever made such a request so please honour me...BRAVO INDIA, BRAVO ISRO....

Key Points:

• Background: Chandrayan-2 is India's second lunar exploration mission after Chandrayaan-1 Developed by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), the mission was launched from the second launch pad at Satish Dhawan Space Centre on 22 July 2019 at 2.43 PM IST (09:13 UTC) to the Moon by a Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle Mark III.
• Mission: The Chandrayaan 2 mission is set to explore the south polar region of the Moon, which is also known as Dark Side of the Moon due to the absence of sunlight in and around the craters of the Lunar Polar surface. The main scientific objective is to map the location and abundance of lunar water.
• Components: It carried 3 components namely the Orbiter, The Lander ‘Vikram’, and the Rover ‘Pragyaan. The Lander has been named after the father of the Indian Space Programme, Dr Vikram A Sarabhai. The life span of Vikram is one lunar day which is equivalent to 14 Earth days. It has the capability to communicate with The Indian Deep Space Network (IDSN) at Byalalu near Bangalore and can also communicate with the Rover and the Orbiter too.
• Schedule: Chandrayaan-2 will take 54 days to accomplish the task of landing on the Moon through meticulously planned orbital phases.
