About Moon Mission
Chandrayaan-1 Moon vehicle was India's first lunar probe. It was launched by the Indian Space Research Organisation in October 2008, and operated until August 2009. The mission included a lunar orbiter and an impactor

Objectives of mission
For the preparation of a three-dimensional atlas (with high spatial and altitude resolution of 5–10 m) of both the near and far sides of the Moon
To increase scientific knowledge
To test the impact of a sub-satellite (Moon Impact Probe — MIP) on the surface on the Moon as a fore-runner to future soft-landing missions
To detect water-ice on the Moon
To design, develop, launch and orbit a spacecraft around the Moon using an Indian-made launch-vehicle
To conduct scientific experiments using instruments on the spacecraft which would yield data:
