A rocket is scheduled to launch next year that will take along a robotic probe to orbit the moon. The probe is expected to provide details of how much water there is on the moon and where it is.
ISRO's year-end mission is historic, aiming to achieve the rare feat of docking, merging, or joining two satellites in space. This ambitious project is named "Space Docking Experiment" (SpaDeX).
ISRO’s PSLV-C60 rocket carrying two spacecraft that would aid in demonstration of space docking, a critical technology for future space missions, lifted off from the spaceport here late on Monday.
