Bengaluru: The country's space organization Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) is about to launch Chandrayaan-3 next year. For this, moon-like craters or deep pits are being built at Ullarthi Kavalu in Chitradurga, about 215 km from Bengaluru. Their aim is to make complete preparations for the next Chandrayaan mission. A source in ISRO has said in this regard, "We have tendered to dig the pit and are preparing to finalize a company to do this work. It is expected that this work will be finished by the end of August or early September. It will cost about 24.2 lakh rupees".

According to information received from ISRO, these pits will be ten meters in diameter and three meters deep. The purpose of making it is to make a moon-like surface for the Chandrayaan-3 lander. In this process, the sensor of the lander will be tested. This is called the lander sensor performance test. In this, signals will be sent by flying the aircraft over the lander and from there it will be seen whether the lander is working properly or not.

The type of Chandrayaan-2 will also use multiple sensors in the country's next mission moon. These sensors will help in estimating the altitude from the landing spot, it will also be able to maintain speed and avoid the stones coming in the way.
