Chandrayaan-I reaches its final resting orbit-India-The Times of India
Chandrayaan I is the fifth satellite now orbiting moon. The other four members are the US, Russia (former Soviet Union), Japan, China and members of European Space Agency.
The most crucial stage of taking Chandrayraan to its final orbit was LOI ie lunar orbit insertion. "At a certain point, the gravity of moon and that of earth cancel each other out, making LOI very challenging."
The satellite will work for next two years taking 3D maps of moon, getting chemical mapping of the moon along with searching water and ice caps.
