Book offers overview of Chandrayaan-3 mission, chronicles evolution of India’s moon programme

New Delhi, (PTI) Given present trends, countries like the US and China would be fighting it out in the planetary ring and India should keep itself away from any such rat race as the success of the Chandrayaan-3 mission has already demonstrated the capability of the Indian system to pull off such technology intensive projects, says a new book.

In “Chandrayaan-3: India on the Moon”, Ajey Lele, a consultant at the Manohar Parrikar Institute for Defence Studies and Analyses here, offers an overview of the Chandrayaan-3 mission and covers the evolution of India’s moon programme. It also traces India’s journey to the moon, starting from its inception during the early 2000s.

The author says the success of Chandrayaan-3 mission is good for India’s commercial space sector, and it demonstrates the capability of the Indian system to pull off such technology intensive projects, adding all this is expected to attract more investments to the space sector.
