Chandrayaan lifts off successfully
October 21, 2008
"The mission will lead to detailed understanding of the mineralogy of the moon, and (possibility of) abundance of Helium-3 said to be a relatively clean fuel for future nuclear fusion reactors," an ISRO official said.
"It will also throw more light on what appears to be the presence of water ice in the permanently shadowed regions of the moon's polar areas".
