Isro Surprised Again Chandrayaan-3 Propulsion Module Called Back to Earth

The Chandrayaan-3 mission has brought popularity to India and our space agency ISRO worldwide. Now ISRO has done something that no one had an idea. Chandrayaan-3’s propulsion module i.e. PM (PM), who was still shocked by the moon, has brought him back to the Earth’s class. This simply means that in future ISRO can also bring back its spacrafts to the earth. It seems that ISRO also had no idea that he would have to do something like this. Why the propulsion module was brought into the Earth’s orbit and now let’s know what it will do.

According to PTI and media reports, ISRO believed that he would work for 3 months. But there is so much fuel left in it that it can work for many years. The initial work of the propulsion module was to separate the lander by reaching the end of the moon. After this, ISRO started the ‘Spectro-Polymetry of Habitable Planet Earth’ (Shape) in the PM. It was estimated that it would last 3 months.

However, more than a month after working in the Moon orbit, more than 100 kg of fuel was saved in the propulsion module. ISRO says that the remaining fuel in the propulsion module will be used to gather more information for future moon mission. In such a situation, it was decided to bring it back into the class of Earth.

According to the report, on 9 October this year, the propulsion module was given command to change his class i.e. orbit. Just as he went from the earth towards the moon, similarly he started coming from the moon to the earth. The orbit of the propulsion module was changed for the last time on 22 November. Now it is in a class where it is safe and is not threatened by any satellite or other things.
