The lunar exosphere, bounded by the emptiness of space and the Moon’s surface, is an atmosphere so thin that atoms rarely collide. This environment, primarily made up of neutral atoms and molecules, ...

Chandrayaan-2 Orbiter has detected Argon-40 from lunar exosphere through CHACE-2 (Chandrayaan Atmospheric Composition Explorer) payload aboard the spacecraft. ISRO said on Thursday that it detected ...

The Chandra's Atmospheric Composition Explorer-2 (CHACE-2), a quadrupole mass spectrometer onboard Chandrayaan-2 mission, has made the first-of-its-kind observations of the global distribution of ...

The Mars Exospheric Neutral Composition Analyser (MENCA), onboard Indian Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) is a mass spectrometer, provides in-situ measurements of the neutral composition of the exosphere of ...

BENGALURU: A payload on board India’s second moon-orbiting mission Chandrayaan-2 has made the first-of-its-kind discovery on the Moon-wide distribution of one of the noble gases Argon-40 to study the ...

Moon Dust: Unlike Earth and other major celestial bodies in the solar system, the Moon doesn't have a significant atmosphere or magnetic field. However, Earth's satellite has a very thin layer of dust ...

Mercury’s exosphere, a tenuous envelope where collisions between particles are rare, offers unique insights into surface–space interactions and the dynamic processes that govern atmospheric evolution.

These are the first significant observations from feeds of Mars Orbiter Years of hard work by Indian space scientists is beginning to yield results. Data from India’s first interplanetary mission to ...
