At the time when everyone was glued to their television screens, eagerly following India’s second lunar mission, Dr. P. Sreekumar (ISRO) gave a fascinating talk about the scientific objectives of Chandrayaan-2.

Sreekumar touched upon various aspects of the mission- such as detecting water on the surface of the moon, the trans lunar insertion manoeuvre of the spacecraft and the different payloads that the spacecraft is carrying to address multiple scientific questions.
