Riding high on the wave post India's first successful lunar mission, ISRO Chairman G.
Madhavan Nair has revealed that India's space organization will launch the Chandrayaan II in the
year 2013.
The Chandrayaan II mission will be far more complicated as compared to the first one because
of the Moon Rover landing that this mission involves. Landing a rover on the moon is a
complicated task, as the moon does not have an atmosphere that can slow down the descent of
the rover with parachutes. The ISRO is working on alternatives that will endure a safe landing for
the rover.
