Updates from ISRO's Chandrayaan 2 mission: India’s second unmanned mission to moon -- Chandrayaan 2 -- was set to take off on 15 July from Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota at 2.51 am. Less than an hour to launch, a technical snag was observed in the launch vehicle system and ISRO called off the launch as a measure of abundant precaution
Officials at the ISRO must be heartbroken. A lot of effort and hard work has gone into the launch, but unfortunately today isn't just the right day for ISRO. The space agency called off the launch just 56 minutes before the scheduled launch time.
