future extraterrestrial exploration

isro s missions beyond earth s orbit include chandrayaan-1 (to moon) , mars orbiter mission (to mars). isro plans follow chandrayaan-2 , missions venus , near-earth objects such asteroids , comets.

chandrayaan-2

chandrayaan-2 (sanskrit: चंद्रयान-२) india s mission moon, include orbiter , lander-rover module. chandrayaan-2 launched on india s geosynchronous satellite launch vehicle (gslv-mkii) in 2018. science goals of mission further improve understanding of origin , evolution of moon.

mangalyaan 2

the next mars mission launched in 2021-2022, have less elliptical orbit around red planet , weigh 7 times more first mission. announcement of opportunity (ao) addressed institutions in india involved in planetary exploration studies/the development of science instruments space. orbiter mission facilitate scientific community address open science problems. principal investigator of proposal should (i) able provide necessary details of instrument can address scientific problems , (ii) capable of bringing instrument team , lead team developing space qualified instrument. payload capability of proposed satellite 100 kg.

venus exploration

isro assessing venusian orbiter mission 2020 study atmosphere. jacques blamont, astrophysicist, has offered indian space research organisation gigantic balloons carrying several instruments designed pop in , out of extremely hot atmosphere of planet after being unfettered orbiter. budget has been allocated mission venus part of 2017–18 indian budget under space sciences.

solar exploration programme

isro plans carry out mission sun year 2019–20. probe named aditya-1 , weigh 400 kg. first indian space based solar coronagraph study corona in visible , near-ir bands. launch of aditya mission planned during heightened solar activity period in 2012, postponed 2019–2020 due extensive work involved in fabrication, , other technical aspects. main objective of mission study coronal mass ejections (cmes), properties (the structure , evolution of magnetic fields example), , consequently delineate parameters affect space weather.
