Chandrayaan-2 launch put off: India, Israel in lunar race for 4th position

月船2号推迟发射：印度和以色列在月球竞赛中争当第四名

NEW DELHI: India’s most ambitious Chandrayaan-2 mission, which was earlier scheduled for October first week, has been postponed till December, according to an Isro source. The mission, which was originally scheduled for April 23 this year, has been deferred for the second time. With Israel too planning to launch a moon mission in December, it will be a race between Tel Aviv and New Delhi for the fourth position in the world to land on the moon. Till now, US, Russia and have been able to soft-land its spacecraft on the mission’s surface.

新德里:据印度空间研究组织（ISRO）消息，印度最雄心勃勃的“月球二号”任务，由原定的10月第一周推迟到12月。该任务最早定于今年4月23日，这已经是第二次推迟了。由于以色列也计划在12月发射月球飞船任务，这将是特拉维夫和新德里之间的一场竞赛，以争夺第四个登陆月球的国家的名次。此前，美国、俄罗斯和都已经在月球表面完成软着陆。

Unlike the Chandrayaan-1 programme in 2008 that involved only orbiting around the moon, Chandrayaan-2 is a much complicated mission as it involves an orbiter, a lander and a rover. The mission involves a soft-landing on the lunar surface and a rover that will walk and analysis the content on the moon’s surface. Being India’s most challenging mission, Isro doesn’t want to take chances and taking time to fix all glitches in the lunar mission. The reason Isro is treading cautiously with this high-profile mission is because it had witnessed two satellite mission failures in the last one year — navigation satellite IRNSS-1H got stuck in the heat shield during its launch last August and Gsat-6A communication satellite went out of control after it was launched in April this year.

2008年的“月船一号”只围绕月球轨道运行，和它相比，“月船二号”计划是一项复杂得多的任务，它包含轨道飞行器、着陆器和探测车。此次任务包括在月球表面软着陆，以及将在月球表面行走并分析月球表面成分的月球车。作为印度有史以来最具挑战性的太空任务，Isro不想冒险，也不想花时间去解决月球任务中的所有问题。Isro如此谨慎的原因是在过去的一年，印度有两个卫星任务发生了失败——去年8月，导航卫星IRNSS-1H卡在隔热罩中，无法升空；今年4月，Gsat-6A通信卫星升空后失去控制。

As the weight of the Chandrayaan-2 spacecraft has increased, according to the source, GSLV Mk III or Isro’s ‘fat boy’ will now carry the spacecraft as it has the lifting capability of over four tonne. According to the earlier plan, GSLV Mk II which just three-tonne lifting capability was supposed to carry the payload.

据消息人士透露，随着“月球漫步者2号”太空船的重量增加，GSLV Mk III或Isro的“肥仔”号将搭载这枚航天器，因为它的升力超过4吨。根据早前的计划，GSLV Mk II的有效载荷只有3吨。

Israeli nonprofit SpaceIL and Israel Aerospace Industries will launch its mission to the moon by the end of this year. Describing its mission, SpaceIL, in a video, said it involved a 1,300-pound lander piggybacking on an Elon Musk-owned SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket, whose primary payload is a communications satellite. The spacecraft will orbit the moon for almost two months before landing, where it will record and send video and conduct some small science observations using a magnetometer.

以色列非营利组织SpaceIL和以色列航天工业公司将在今年年底前发射月球任务。在一段视频中，SpaceIL介绍了此次任务，将包含一个1300磅的着陆器，并搭载了伊隆·马斯克拥有的SpaceX猎鹰9号火箭，它的主要有效载荷是一颗通信卫星。该航天器将在着陆前围绕月球轨道运行近两个月，在此期间它将记录和发送视频，并使用磁力仪进行一些小型科学观测。

Describing India’s Chandrayaan-2 mission, the Isro chairman had earlier told TOI, “It is totally an indigenous programme. All components of the Chandrayaan-2 mission, including an orbiter, a lander and a rover, have been developed in the country. There integration is going on and they all are undergoing rigorous tests. On reaching the moon’s orbit, the lander will get detached from the orbiter and soft-land on the lunar surface. The six-wheeled rover fixed within the lander will get detached and move on the lunar surface for around 100 metres. It will spend 14 Earth days (one moon day) and analyse the content. It will also take photos of the moon’s surface and relay the images back to the Earth via the orbiter within 15 minutes.”

在介绍印度的月船二号任务时，Isro主席早些时候告诉印度时报，“这完全是一个国产项目。月船二号任务的所有组件，包括轨道飞行器、着陆器和漫游者，都是印度研发的。拼装正在进行中，它们都在进行严格的测试。在到达月球轨道后，着陆器将与轨道飞行器分离，并在月球表面软着陆。在着陆器内固定的六轮探测车将被分离，并在月球表面移动约100米。它将花费14个地球日(一个月球日)并分析其成分。它还将拍摄月球表面的照片，并在15分钟内通过轨道飞行器将图像传回地球。

While India is trying to put chandrayaan on moon pakistan is trying to put jihadis in Kashmir. Best of luck jihadis for your successful launch to heavens for 72 goats

当印度试图把月船安送上月球时，巴基斯坦却试图把圣战分子带到克什米尔。祝你成功的把72只山羊登上天堂，祝你好运

Israel is a dear friend nation . No competition there . Maybe India and Israel together can embark upon even more ambitious and tough project . India need not hurry . It was due to unnecessary hurry we lost a satellite . Let us be slow but steady.

以色列是一个亲密的朋友国家。不存在竞争。也许印度和以色列可以联手进行一个更加雄心勃勃、难度更高的项目。印度不需要着急。之前因为不必要的匆忙，我们失去了一颗卫星。这次让我们缓慢而坚定地行动。

ekdesi

No need to rush to beat Israel in the race. It is important to do it successfully, even if a little late.

没有必要急于在竞赛中击败以色列。成功很重要，晚一点儿也没事儿。

Teri Ma Ki

What is the point in whether it is fourth or fifth. It would have mattered if we were first. Now it doesnt matter. Better yake time and do a better job.

第四名抑或是第五名，有什么意义呢?如果我们是第一名，那很重要。现在都不重要。最好抓紧时间，把工作做得更好。

Sunil

Space exploration shouldn't be a competition, with every nation struggling with their economies, there should be a coalition of all space agencies. Do this for all mankind.

truth is god god is truth

Did you know that more than 1400years ago Islamic science and technology developed flying donkey(Buraaq) for interplanetary and space travel without any rocket fuel hahahahaha.

太空探索不应该是一种竞赛，因为每个国家都在与自己的经济作斗争，所以应该设立一个由所有太空机构组成的联盟。为全人类做这些事。

真理就是神，神就是真理

你知道吗，早在1400多年前，ysl科学技术就开发出了“飞驴”，可以在不需要任何火箭燃料的情况下进行星际和太空旅行。

Sunil Prabhu

ISRO please take your time and dont just play a number game like this media is projecting, make a successful launch and mission so that something fruit full is given to the world, also try a manned mission that looks more lucrative and let the world know that Indians can now go any where

ISRO请慢慢来，不要玩媒体提出的数字游戏，完成成功的发射和任务，这样我们能给世界带来一些成果，另外还要尝试载人航天任务,让世界知道印度人现在可以去任何地方

Yash

WELL DONE ISRO..

INDIA IS GONNA BE THE NUMBER ONE IN ALL FIELDS.

MY ONLY REQUEST TO GOVERNMENT TO FIND A BEST SOLUTION TO STOP OUR BEST BRAINS GOING OUT OF THE COUNTRY.

BHARAT BHAGY VIDHATA.

做得好ISRO . .

印度将在所有领域中都排名第一。

我唯一的请求就是，请政府找到一个最好的解决方案，阻止我们最优秀的人才离开这个国家。

Rai Saheb

GSLV MK-III is the most powerful rocket. Unfortunately, GSLV MK-III development was slowed down during UPA govt because Congress being a Muslim party diverted Taxpayer''s money in Islamic agendas such as freebies, reservation, financial packages to Muslims. Congress starved ISRO for money. ISRO projects were given budget approval by nationalist BJP govt and Yug Purush Modi ji.

GSLV MK-III是最强大的火箭。不幸的是，因为国大党是msl政党，GSLV MK-III的研发进度在团结进步联盟政府部门被放缓，国大党将纳税人的钱转移到关乎ysl人的事中，如米啊内赠品、预留制、财政援助等。国大党让ISRO捉襟见肘。ISRO项目得到了民族主义人民党政府和莫迪的预算批准。

Mr

US never reached Moon. They fooled the world. Only to show betteroff agst Russia they Bluffed.

美国从来没有到达过月球。他们愚弄了全世界。他们只是为了向俄罗斯炫耀，而虚张声势。

Da Da

Let us not jump for race with Israel as this nation is very strong towards its national interest first unlike India where all political Parties are hungry for power and after coming to power to loot public money.This attitude has to be changed if we want to Compete with other nation.

我们不要急于与以色列竞赛，因为首先，这个国家在国家利益上非常强硬，不像印度，所有的政党都渴望权力，而且在掌权后都掠夺公共资金。如果我们想与其他国家竞争，就必须改变这种心态。

Hindu Warrior

Where is FEKU now? We are losing this race to such a small country Israel. Israeli people are most dirty and smelling and we can''t even defeat them. Israel is top human right violator and disgusting country. Please ISRO at least defeat them

莫迪现在在哪里?我们正在输给一个如此小的国家，以色列。以色列人最脏、最臭，我们竟然连他们都无法打败。以色列是人*侵犯的最过分和令人厌恶的国家。ISRO，请击败他们。

Susu

Please send Feku too to moon.. Feku's governance is very irritating...

请把莫迪送到月球上。莫迪的治理非常令人恼火……

satwinder singh

being there 1st doesn''t mean you''re the best

第一个到达并不意味着你是最棒的

John Thoppil

If India had asked Russia to send it we could have sent it earlier. Israel sending it on a private American rocket does not count as an Israeli achievement. We were struggling with a heavier lift rocket technology which Israel has got ready made.

如果印度要求俄罗斯发射，我们本可以早些发射的。以色列用美国的私人火箭发射，并不算以色列的成就。我们现在正跟以色列已经准备就绪的更重的运载火箭技术竞争。

Jagdish Madan

Isro''s Moon landing attempt is crucial for Indian space programme and marks a technology upgrade; its only appropriate that the the outfit takes time to tie up all the loose ends before the mission is launched. ISRO has always delivered on its promises and shall raise Indian prestige with Chandrayaan II too!

Isro的登月计划对印度太空计划至关重要，标志着一项技术的升级;在任务开始之前，整个团队需要时间来解决所有的问题。ISRO一直信守承诺，将提升印度的声望。

Gentleman

Great going ISRO. I wish all the success Chandrayana 2.

ISRO太棒了。祝月船2号任务成功完成!

Hi Sudip

Landing in moon is a matter of pride, no doubt ! But what US, Russia & found so far in moon ?? Can India get extra information which they didn''t get?

登陆月球无疑是一件值得骄傲的事!但美国、俄罗斯和在月球上发现了什么?印度能得到他们没有得到的其他信息吗?

Neo The One

No need to rush...this is not a competetion between class 12 kids on who gets higher marks...slow n steady wins the race

不用着急……这不是12年级的学生之间攀比谁得的分数更高……慢慢地，稳稳地赢得比赛

Nice Guy

Gujju Semen Drinker FEKU will blame it on Nehru as usual.

古杰的精液饮用者莫迪将一如既往地将其归咎于尼赫鲁。

Spamonymous

Why have a Rover that can move only 100 metres? Have something that can recharge itself and keep on moving for next 1 year even if it's just 100 metres per day. Doesn't matter if you are 4th or 5th. Get best out of the tax money you are using.

为什么漫游者只能移动100米?研发点什么让它可以自己充电，即使每天只行进100米，也可以在接下来的一年里继续前进。不管你是第4名还是第五名，都没关系。要将你们花费的税款发挥到极致。

Aditya

better safer than being sorry. Best of luck luck for a successful launch

安全比后悔好。祝你好运，发射成功

Raj

4th 5th does not matter. Succeed. Best wishes.

第4名、第5名并不重要。成功。送上最好的祝福。

Sunil Kokrady

The mission is most complicated mission ISRO had ever taken. ISRO must take its time and move ahead with confidence. Failure is no longer end but step stone to success. Pray GOD be with you.

这次任务是ISRO所执行过的最复杂的任务。ISRO必须慢慢来，充满信心地前进。失败不是结束，而是成功的垫脚石。愿神与你同在。

Jagannath Murty

The Russians and Americans have been systematiclly sabotaging our space programme and arms R and D. It will be interesting to find out how many of our scientists have migrated to the US and how many have children studying there.

俄罗斯人和美国人一直在系统地破坏我们的太空计划和武器研发。如果查一查我们有多少科学家移居美国，有多少孩子在美国学习，那将是一件很有趣的事。

Amrit Bindra

No need to race against anyone. Success of the mission is more important as is future progress. Who cares whether you are number four or number 5 since you are not number one !

没有必要和任何人竞争。任务的成功和未来的发展更为重要。既然你不是第一名，谁在乎你是第4名还是第5名!
