๐Ÿš€ Chandrayaan 3's Rover Payloads: Unveiling Lunar Mysteries! ๐ŸŒ•

1. LASER Induced Breakdown Spectroscope (LIBS): Through the magic of light, LIBS conducts qualitative and quantitative elemental analysis, unraveling chemical compositions and revealing lunar mineralogy. A journey of discovery on the lunar surface! ๐Ÿ”ฌ๐ŸŒŒ

2. Alpha Particle X-ray Spectrometer (APXS): Diving into lunar tales, APXS delves into elementsโ€”Mg, Al, Si, K, Ca, Ti, Feโ€”embedded in the lunar soil and rocks near the landing site. A celestial voyage shedding light on lunar history! โœจ๐Ÿช

These cutting-edge tools are onboard Chandrayaan 3's rover, leading the way to an exciting lunar expedition. ๐ŸŒ™๐Ÿ›ฐ #Chandrayaan3 #LunarExploration #RoverPayloads

Chandrayaan-3 Mission:
Here are the first observations from the ChaSTE payload onboard Vikram Lander.

ChaSTE (Chandra's Surface Thermophysical Experiment) measures the temperature profile of the lunar topsoil around the pole, to understand the thermal behaviour of the moon's surface. It has a temperature probe equipped with a controlled penetration mechanism capable of reaching a depth of 10 cm beneath the surface. The probe is fitted with 10 individual temperature sensors.

The presented graph illustrates the temperature variations of the lunar surface/near-surface at various depths, as recorded during the probe's penetration. This is the first such profile for the lunar south pole. Detailed observations are underway.
