Nuclear Thermal rockets can take you there in 45 days , total "to and fro" trip time would be around 6 months....but yes, as you have said we have to build a spacestation like spacecraft, the same spacecraft can be used for manned moon missions as well as, if we can set up a lunar base to...

Manned Mars landing by 2050 is impossible, for it we need Nuclear Thermal Rocket engines apart from Starship like rocket... personally I want ISRO to develop a Nuclear Salt Water Rocket, it can achieve exhaust velocity of 60-70km/s with 1000s of KNs of thrust(for eg SCE-200 engine has exhaust...

This was just representative....not the actual planned timeline & this came before CY-3.....since CY-3 is successful, ISRO is more confident about doing Manned Lunar Landing & it is certainly possible before 2047.....again watch that interview, you will see how confident about it

I posted Dr.Somanath's interview in the previous page

ISRO is dreaming very high...they want to do a manned lunar landing, possibly by 2047

as of now none

Sad news

Regarding CY-3

No, you are wrong, the rover will be Japanese,while lander will be Indian

Very detailed about the tests conducted during CY-3 development phase as well as the team members involved in it https://m.timesofindia.com/india/chandrayaan-3-lunar-conquerors-unsung-heroes-indias-chandamama-dream/articleshow/103488457.cms

Key points to be noted * (@24:25) Proposal of Chandrayaan-1 in lunar polar orbit was not taken seriously by international community. * (@27:20) Concept of having only one model (flight) for Chandrayaan-1 surprised collaborators, but it worked. And it worked again for MOM which used...

CY-2 orbiter already has a L & S band SAR to map craters as well as to map water ice

Do you mean the perserverance rover on Mars, if yes, those samples will be returned in a unmanned sample return mission,not a manned one

Chandrayaan-6 is the sample return mission, planned for 2030s before you ask, CY-4 is Indo-japanese LUPEX, CY-5 is lander only mission to a volcano in moon's North polar region with a driller

Somanath sir hinted about this in Gareeb Scientist's interview
