Chandrayaan 2 mission is a highly complex mission, which represents a significant technological leap compared to the previous missions of ISRO, which brought together an Orbiter, Lander, and Rover with the goal of exploring South pole of the Moon. This is a unique mission of ISRO. ISRO took a good initiative.
