India had visited moon under its Chandrayaan-1 mission in 2008 and now following 11 years, ISRO is going to launch the successor to the mission to find progressively about the baffling divine body. 

We are not a long way from visiting the Moon for the second time as Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) has reported that it will direct the second lunar mission, Chandrayaan-2 between July 5 and July 16, 2019, and that it will in all likelihood set foot on the Moon at some point around September 6, 2019. 

India had visited moon under its Chandrayaan-1 mission in 2008 and now following 11 years, ISRO is going to launch the successor to the mission to find increasingly about the puzzling divine body. The mission had given data about the nearness of water and ice on the lunar surface and accordingly, it was named fruitful. This time around, ISRO's principle objective is to work a mechanical wanderer and learn about the geology, mineralogy, marks of water ice and basic bounty on the Moon. Here are five things you should think about India's next Moon mission. 

5 Things You Should Know About The Chandrayaan-2 Mission: 

1. The Chandrayaan-2 orbiter is a crate formed spacecraft, that comprises of an orbital mass of 2,379 kg. 

2. The spacecraft will convey three modules which will incorporate an orbiter, a lander named Vikram and a meanderer named Pragyan. 

3. It will be launched on board a GSLV-MkIII (Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle) rocket - a three-stage substantial launch vehicle - from Satish Dhawan Space Center on Sriharikota Island. 

4. The launch of India's next Moon mission was canceled on different occasions previously. It was at first planned to launch between January 3 and February 16, 2019, but since of a couple of inadequate tests, the mission was pushed to be led in April. Afterward, ISRO concluded to launch Chandrayaan 2 in July this year. 

5. On the off chance that India effectively finishes the Chandrayaan 2 mission, it will end up being the fourth nation after Russia, USA and China to have accomplished this noteworthy accomplishment.
