What is the Moon Path of Chandrayaan-3?
→ Similar to Chandryaan-2, Chandryaan-3 will follow a similar trajectory.
→ Earth orbit manoeuvres, trans-lunar injection, and lunar orbit manoeuvres will make up its three phases.
→ When all of these phases are finished, the lander detaches from the propulsion module, moves into an orbit closer to the moon, and starts to soft-land process.
→ Chandrayaan-3 will perform five orbital movements around the planet, increasing the separation between each one.
→ Then, as soon as the fifth manoeuvre is finished, it starts to travel in the direction of the moon.
→ The Trans Lunar Injection phase is now underway.
→ The module circles the moon four times, getting closer to the moon each time, similar to how it orbits the Earth.
→ It will eventually achieve a 100 km x 100 km circular orbit.
→ Here, the lander detaches from the propulsion unit and modifies its orbit to get it as near to the moon as 30 km.
→ After that, the lander starts the soft-landing operations.
