The Department of Space has planned as many as 19 missions this year even as the Chandrayaan-3, the next phase of India’s mission to the moon, is scheduled for August 2022, the government told the Lok Sabha.<\/p>\n
“Based on the learnings from Chandrayaan-2 and suggestions made by the national level experts, the realisation of Chandrayaan-3 is in progress. Many related hardware and their special tests are successfully completed, and the launch is scheduled for August 2022,” Union Minister for Space Dr Jitendra Singh said in reply to a written question. <\/p>\n
A total of 19 missions are planned during January to December 2022, including eight ‘Launch Vehicle Missions’, seven ‘Spacecraft Missions’ and four ‘Technology Demonstrator Missions’, Singh said.<\/p>\n
Several ongoing missions were impacted due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Also, reprioritisation of projects has taken place in the backdrop of Space Sector reforms and newly introduced demand driven models, he said.<\/p>\n
