This episode is part 2 of a two part series.
We speak about Chandrayaan 3 mission. What happens after the landing and once the dust settles down? Why some of these experiments are on board and what is it that we are trying seek from the edge of scientific frontier?
We just ask Jatan Mehta.
He is the author of two fascinating Newsletters - Indian Space progress — and The Moon Monday.
If you started of with this episode you will do just alright but the part 1 on the moon is interesting by itself.
