NDTV
Chandrayaan-3: On the "hop test" successfully done by the moon lander, Mr Somanath explained that it was a step in the direction of future sample return and human missions.
All the scientific instruments in Chandrayaan-3 were deployed, and the team is satisfied with the data that was collected, S Somanath, Chairperson of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and the person who spearheaded the team for Chandrayaan-3, said. The data will now be analysed, which is a process that can take several years, he said, adding that data from Chandrayaan-1 is still producing publications.
In a freewheeling conversation with NDTV, Mr Somanath discussed challenges with the earlier moon mission, described in detail the workings of the lander and the rover, and his vision for the future of space research in India.
He called the Chandrayaan-2 mission "a very hard learning" for the organisation, and said they conducted rigorous review to understand what could have gone wrong.
