Today India launched its first moon mission. The lunar orbiter named Chandrayaan-1, which is Sanskrit for “Moon Craft” was launched from the Sriharikota space center in southern India. Chandrayaan-1 will join the Japanese lunar orbiter Kaguya launched in October 2007 and the Chinese orbiter Chang’e-1.
