Arrey bhai chaand par bhi traffic accident karwane ka plan hai kya?

Luna has a ROver in it?

Nope.

Sorry, if you look at the details of the two countries projects, you will find China's moon exploration project had nothing to do with India.
When India's Prime Minister- Atal Bihari Vajpayee announced the plan in Aug-03, only Chandrayaan-1 was declared, the whole project was then approved in Nov-03.
In the case of China, the first public mention of moon exploration project was in Feb-04. The narrative, however, was that the moon project already got into engineering stage, and the time table of 3 stages (circling, landing, returning) was given at the same time. Chinese planned to do their returning before 2020.
The actual time was Dec-20, 1 year delay. This tell us that their technologies development for moon exploration must started around 2000.

Q: Can China get the crewed lunar landing done by 2030.

The world is watching.

yes +/- 2 or 3 years

^^^ Whatever the reason, it is annoying, the Russians doing this just when india is

I don't understand why some Indians are concerned about who makes it to the moon first and who doesn't? Luna-25 from the Russian side is the first attempt in many decades by the Russians at landing a lander on the moon. Till date, only the US, China and then USSR have managed to successfully land on the moon, if we make it then we will be the fourth nation to accomplish such a feat, unless you consider Russia as separate from the USSR, but most people think that Russia is USSR, so even if Russia lands on moon before Chandrayaan-3, and then we land, we will still be the fourth nation to accomplish this feat like I said before. We all are humans, we all have an obsession with making history and setting records and etching our doings in history so that the future generations may always have an inspiration to look forward to.

After 2035 in terms of idealistic scenario, 2040 in optimistic scenario and after 2040 in project scenario.

Good luck to ISRO and team and all those heading Chandrayaan-3 mission. Hopefully the lander manages to touch down on the lunar safely. Chandrayaan-2, it's predecessor also had a lander but it failed.

Recap to failure of C-2's lander: "The Isro chief said the “five engines of the lander generating higher thrust, limitation of the software to detect errors and the small landing site” were the three primary causes for the crashlanding of the lander"

Hopefully nothing goes with C-3's lander and we manage to touch down nice sweetly on the moon.

Its also about landing to the southern most part AKA closest to the pole.

Russia's landing latitude is just 0.15° (69.54 vs 69.38) more South than ours. Coincidence

Nationalism is the driving force behind space exploration



Why else have so many countries reinvented the wheel

by that logic everything followed upto American and soviet scientific missions are reinventing the wheel and adds nothing of value to science as such, I only see ESA and Japanese missions that were out of the box

why do you even post here cumbrain go shiiet somewhere else

I can imagine when both Luna-25 and Chandrayaan-3 were to meet, they be like:

Luna-25: Privet my Indian Friend!
Chandrayaan-3: Namaste my friend!

Followed by Vodka and Chicken Biryani party.

There have been so many failed rocket tests in Japan recently,



These are not very advanced rockets


This is reinventing the wheel

It's more about competition and who does what and achieves what first, the one who does so gets to have his/her record etched in history so that they may be remembered by the future generations and the entire world.

US and USSR had a space race back in the 1950s to 1970s. AIM of both? To achieve maximum technological superiority in space exploration capability.

So reinventing the wheel was inevitable



Because the first inventor didn't share the technology with anyone else

LoL no

The Japs have done some serious out of the box scientific stuff, even tho their budget is not very great

there is a LOT of new science done after the USSR and USA landed their crafts on the moon.

and nations send their crafts to other heavenly bodies and test their rockets and satellites to establish their national capabilities. these are expensive useful tech that no advanced nation is going to provide for free.it will be sold for high prices.

so nations if they want this critical tech, they must walk on the path of certain nations and private institutions.

I have great respect for Japanese scientists,



But the Americans didn't share their technology with the Japanese either

Quiet now before Emperor Xi investigates the real reason(s) behind your social credit score.

I have great respect for Pakistani scientists,



But the Chinese didn't share their technology with the Pakistanis either.


They just sold them missiles and nukes. The paint wasn't complimentary though.

All cutting-edge technology is classified



Others have to reinvent
