congratulations, and Godspeed to them sir! Thank you. We will soon send another one to sun Careful Icarus.

Thank you. We will soon send another one to sun Careful Icarus. After the successful launch of Chandrayaan 3, India has achieved a significant milestone by establishing a robust connection in space. Notably, India has also become the first country to land on the southern side of the moon, sparking inspiration and driving them to pursue even greater endeavors in the future.

Notably, India has also become the first country to land on the southern side of the moon, sparking inspiration and driving them to pursue even greater endeavors in the future. Cool. The more countries the better, and maybe some friendly competition to get things moving faster. Are they planning a manned mission too at some point? That would be cool. Though maybe not their preferred use of resources. I also want someone to send a probe to Europa and those moons with oceans under the ice. If a robot probe can drill the ice, it might find life underneath it.

Patriotic pride (or lack of it, in other cases) makes one forget his spiritual beliefs ... How does this space exploration fit in your model of reality? I'd say that this space exploration makes no sense from many points of view, both spiritual and secular.

We're launching the rocket to the sun tomorrow, everyone. It's going to be 120 days journey

What I've seen on the vids they might be able to get similar data from a much cheaper and doable sampling the plumes of Enceladus in a fly-by.

I remember now reading a similar thing about Europa. Space geysers.

Notably, India has also become the first country to land on the southern side of the moon, sparking inspiration and driving them to pursue even greater endeavors in the future. That was quite an achievement! The South Pole of the moon was a difficult place to land for many reasons, and the temperature goes so low that special metals and methods of lubrication had to be developed (I believe I read that it can drop to 410 degrees F below zero or somewhere in that range). One reason India chose to go there is to determine the amount of ice in that area--ice that, if in sufficient quantity, can be used for several important things. They've already discovered sulfur, and the rover seems to be operating as hoped for. Very cool.

We're launching the rocket to the sun tomorrow, everyone. It's going to be 120 days journey Are there any key things they are trying study about the sun, that you're watching for? I don't know much about what research they could do there. Just getting high res photos back could be awesome. I learned recently something interesting about the sun: the fusion power it generates is not that intense - per unit of volume it's something like the heat generated by the human body. It get's super-hot because it's so huge and heat can't escape easily. That has some ramifications for potential fusion power on Earth. We don't need to just duplicate the fusion process in the sun; we would need to make it much more dense and intense.

We don't need to just duplicate the fusion process in the sun; we would need to make it much more dense and intense. Sorry, concerning the temperature fusion occurs, this just sounded absurd, had to look it up. According to (source 1, there is a footnote), the primary source of solar energy, and that of similar size stars, is the fusion of hydrogen to form helium (the proton–proton chain reaction), which occurs at a solar-core temperature of 14 million kelvin. To fuse in our sun, nuclei need to collide with each other at extremely high temperatures, around ten million degrees Celsius 2. Nuclear fusion requires temperatures of 27 million degrees F, which occurs at the sun’s core. Another source: Nuclear fusion - Wikipedia The primary source of solar energy, and that of similar size stars, is the fusion of hydrogen to form helium (the proton–proton chain reaction), which occurs at a solar-core temperature of 14 million kelvin. If memory serves me, the USA-NASA presently has a [Parker Solar] probe orbiting the sun. In its final stage it will plunge into the Sun. I say presently as I'm pretty sure that last phases hasn't occurred yet.
