Chandrayaan-3 launch may take place in early 2021, mission will not have orbiter: Union minister

印度联邦部长：“月船3号”或在2021年初发射，不含轨道器

NEW DELHI: Chandrayaan-3, India's mission to Moon, is likely to be launched in early 2021, Union minister Jitendra Singh said on Sunday.

新德里消息：印度联邦部长辛格周日表示，印度的月球探测器“月船3号”或将于2021年初发射。

However, unlike Chandrayaan-2, it will not have an orbiter, but will include a lander and a rover, he added.

不过，他补充说，与“月船2号”不同的是，“月船3号”没有轨道器，将包括着陆器和月球车。

After the hard landing of Chandrayaan-2 in September last year, space agency Isro had planned another mission to the Moon later this year.

在去年9月“月船2号”硬着陆后，印度空间研究组织(Isro)计划在今年晚些时候进行另一次登月任务。

However, the coronavirus pandemic and the lockdown have hit several of Isro's projects and delayed missions like Chandrayaan-3.

然而，新冠疫情和封锁严重影响了Isro的几个项目，并导致“月船3号”等任务推迟。

"As for Chandrayaan-3, the launch may now take place somewhere in early 2021. Chandrayaan-3 will be a mission repeat of Chandrayaan-2 and will include a Lander and Rover similar to that of Chandrayaan-2, but will not have an orbiter," a statement quoting Singh said.

辛格在一份声明中表示：“月船3号或在2021年初发射。月船3号将重复月船2号的任务，将包括与月船2号类似的着陆器和月球车，但不含轨道器”

Planned to land on the South Pole of the Moon, Chandrayaan-2 was launched on July 22 last year. However, the lander Vikram hard-landed on September 7, crashing India's dream to become the first nation to successfully touch down on the lunar surface in its maiden attempt.

“月船2号”于去年7月22日发射，计划在月球南极着陆。然而，“维克拉姆”号着陆器在9月7日硬着陆，打碎了印度成为首个在月球表面首次尝试便成功着陆的国家的梦想。

The orbiter of the mission is working fine and has been sending data.

“月船2号”的轨道器运行良好，一直在发送数据。

Singh, who is the Minister of State for the Department of Space, said Chandrayaan-1, Isro's maiden mission to the Moon launched in 2008, has sent images which show that Earth's satellite may be rusting along the poles.

辛格是印度航天部国务部长。他说，ISRO于2008年进行的首个月球探测任务“月船1号”所发送的图像显示，月球的两级可能正在生锈。

"The sign of this finding is that even though the surface of the Moon is known to have iron-rich rocks, it is not known for the presence of water and oxygen, which are the two elements needed to interact with iron to create rust," he said.

他说:“已知月球表面有富含铁的岩石，但还不知道是否存在水和氧气，这两种元素需要与铁相互作用才能产生铁锈。”

Feku panauti should refrain from attending.

莫迪不要去参观发射

Mumbai Indian

he can't..you know how desperate he is to grab others credit. he will go there despite the slap in the face he got last time..

他做不到的 .他拼命想抢别人的功劳，尽管上次打脸了，但这次他还是会去参观。

Again that black buffalo chairman of ISRO will cry and humiliate Feku when the lander will collapse ..

当着陆器坠毁的时候，ISRO主席将再次趴在莫迪肩上哭。

Please send Pappu to the moon in the next stage of Gagananyan ..arrr...with lifetime supplies !!

带上拉胡尔，把他送到月球上去

Unlike what some people enjoy saying, Chandrayaan II was far from a complete failure. Its orbiter is still working and some reports did show that the rover moved a small distance after the crashlanding but then the lunar night intervened and its batteries failed.

不像有些人喜欢说的那样，“月船2号”绝不是完全失败了，它的轨道器仍在工作，一些报告显示，月球车在硬着陆后移动了一小段距离，但随后由于月夜的影响，它的电池没电了。

S S Rajguru

Those are not authentic reports. Can’t be verified. This was given by some amateur in Tamilnadu. He wanted NASA to verify. But NASA has not verified the report and ISRO is also silent on the issue. So this so called report can’t be taken at face value.

这些都不是真实报道，尚未得到证实。这是泰米尔纳德邦的一个业余人士说的。他希望美国NASA予以核实，但NASA尚未证实该报告。

A Shaw

Try to find execuses. Mission failed. Admit and work on it.

任务失败了，不要找借口，要承认失败，努力改进。

Indian

Wishing success to ISRO. ISRO is already very successful with a 90% success rate. Wishing it the very best. Kudos to all the hard working scientists.

祝ISRO成功。ISRO已经非常成功，成功率达到了90%。祝一切顺利。向所有努力工作的科学家们致敬。

Vikram Madan

why do we have to go to moon or other planet. what you gona acomplish. god would have created humans in those planets if it were good place for humans or other life.

为什么我们一定要去月球或其他星球？

如果这些行星适合人类或其他生命生存，神就会在这些行星上创造人类。

Mogambo Khushhua

just buy the technology from Russia/US and put 'India' stamp on it like with every other defence related project...

从俄罗斯或美国购买技术，然后贴上“印度”的标签，就像其他国防项目一样……

他们需要一些东西来转移人们的注意力，所以提前宣布计划

Khidr Niyazi

What are they going to do with this moon exploration? Do you plan to live on the moon or mine it? You are wasting time, money and resources when the government is under debt. Stop all these space missions.

这次探月打算做什么?打算在月球上定居还是开采矿产?

印度政府负债累累，这是在浪费时间、金钱和资源。请停止所有的太空任务。
