ISRO this year has conducted major space missions and has various missions planned for the future. Check out latest updates on Chandrayaan-3 mission, Aditya-L1 mission and Shukrayaan mission.

Chandrayaan-3 mission: The ISRO moon mission was the biggest achievement of the year for India. The Vikram lander successfully landed on the Moon and conducted studies for 14 days. Vikram and Pragyan are in sleep mode currently.

However, the Vikram lander and Pragyan rover were put in sleep mode due to the lunar night. Now, ISRO is struggling to revive the Moon them for a new phase of the Chandrayaan-3 mission.

Aditya L1 mission: It is ISRO’s mission to study the Sun. Right now the spacecraft is heading towards the Lagrange point 1 of the Earth-Sun system.

According to ISRO, the spacecraft has travelled 9.2 lakh kilometres from Earth and has exited its sphere of influence. The spacecraft will reach the desired point in December, 2023.

Mangalyaan-2 mission: ISRO is now likely to conduct the second Mars Orbiter Mission, which will study the atmosphere, environment and the interplanetary dust of the red planet.

The Mangalyaan-2 mission is said to carry four payloads: a Mars Orbit Dust Experiment (MODEX), a Radio Occultation (RO) experiment, an Energetic Ion Spectrometer (EIS) and a Langmuir Probe and Electric Field Experiment (LPEX).

Shukrayaan mission: ISRO chairman S. Somanath revealed the Venus mission, which will study the planet’s atmosphere that is filled with acids. 

As per reports, various payloads of the mission are now under development. The planet Venus is called Earth's twin, however, it consists of various different properties that need to be studied.

Gaganyaan mission: The ISRO mission will be India's first manned mission to space and will send three Indian astronauts into space. The trials of the mission have begun. 

The Gaganyaan mission will also include “Vyommitra” a humanoid robot into space. 

NISAR: It's a Low Earth Orbitary project which will be done in collaboration with NASA. This mission aims to study Earth's ecosystem, biomass, groundwater, and more.
